  • 2 stop bits to get the bootloader to recognize keyboard and stop autobooting
  • speed: 115200 /dev/ttyUSB1
  • root/fedoraarm default password
  • rpms installed for development: rsync, git, vim-enhanced, sudo, make, rpm-build, tar, httpd-devel, boot-devel, gcc-c++
  • passenger: need rubygems-1.3.5-4.fc12.noarch.rpm with macro changes
  • rpms installed for amahi: httpd, ruby, samba,

  • VPN does not work (had to turn it off in servers). This could be due to the kernel not having all that it needs for TUN/TAP?:
     Cannot allocate TUN/TAP dev dynamically

  • would like to add swap to flash based drives
  • mt-daapd and amahi-transmission are dying

  • gtkterm for linux (use 2 stop bits!)
  • Reset the device from the JTAG module
  • At the terminal, press enter a couple of seconds after boot to prevent it booting to the flash
  • There are some commands to make it permanently boot off USB:
