Hello,
I've added a wiki page on Plowshare for who are interested :
http://wiki.fon.com/wiki/F2n_Plowshare.

it looks very nice!
in the fon-ng trunk/openwrt there exists a mk_fon_img.sh that tried to explain me how the transmission.fmg is created...
perhaps it could be used to create also an plowshare "fmg"...
this allows plugins >500kbyte that require eg usb disc anyway for the big applications it requires...

I also hope to use it for my aMule plugin soon

yes you're right,
I think it's possible to do something with mk_fon_img.sh.

and I believe there was a /etc/config/images.conf
or something that referred to this...and possible other in the future "plugins" based on such images
where people can port python or perl or php based solutions...
so the novice user doesn't have to start untarring several packages to get something working

Hello.
I'm very interresed in plowshare on the fonera.
After following the wiki (which is great, but I already find additionnal tips to add it for beginners, I will add it soon), I've installed correctly plowshare.
However I'm still stuck by an error occuring when trying to start it. It seems that getopt command is not present. I know that getopts is buildin sh, but change getopt to getopts did not fix the issue.

With original script plowshare:

Quote:

plowdown http://www.megaupload.com/?d=XXXXXXXX
/tmp/run/mountd/sda1/usr/share/plowshare/lib.sh: line 215: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory
/tmp/run/mountd/sda1/usr/share/plowshare/lib.sh: line 230: getopt: command not found

then it keeps stuck.

/tmp/run/mountd/sda1/usr/share/plowshare/lib.sh: line 230: getopts: -o: invalid option
getopts: usage: getopts optstring name [arg]

then it keeps stuck.

Do you have any idea why I got such errors?

I'm using latest fonera 2.0n build for developpers (20090921_FON2303_2.3.0.0_DEV.tgz).

Getop is part of BusyBox

if you do a "make menuconfig", go to base system , busybox, configuration
you might find it somewhere?

Thanks for replying

Ok, so that means I have to fully recompile the fonera firmware right ?

Do you think it is possible to do on MacOS X (If think it is quite difficult because it's BSD)... I will have to do it on ubuntu right?

Is there an "already made" firmware with this "getopt" available directly to download?
This is not that I'm too lazy to do it myself, but what will happen if the firmware I made and flash in fonera is corrupt ? is there a "fail safe" boot ? (I will check in wiki for fonera right now, but if you already have link or direct answer ... :mrgreen:

)

EDIT: Ok, find it, seems to be redboot .. http://trac.fonosfera.org/fon-ng/wiki/redboot
BTW, I got a fonera 2.0n, so the description for connecting serial is for previous fonera 2.0...(I never tried to get redboot command line using ethernet)
Anyway, has far as I know redboot allow to use network file system to get the firmware, so I will be able to try some firmware without breaking the inside flash

Thanks for your help

best regards
LouiZo

for getopt
use this one : http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optwa ... mipsel.ipk

Code:

wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/openwrt-brcm24/cross/unstable/getopt_2.15-2_mipsel.ipk
tar zxvf getopt_2.15-2_mipsel.ipk
tar zxvf data.tar.gz
cp getopt-getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
cp getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin  (this is a link to getop-getopt)

for the error

Code:

/tmp/run/mountd/sda1/usr/share/plowshare/lib.sh: line 215: /dev/fd/62: No such file or directory

type this command

Code:

ln -s /proc/self/fd /dev/fd

Let me know if it's work for you. I'll add this to the wiki later.

Thanks!
I will try this tonight and let you know ! :wink:

hi,
I think I succefully installed plowshare but I had the same problems of Louizo.
I tried to fix it with commands in this page

but commands to fix getopt respond me with these errors

Code:

root@Fonera:/root# cp getopt-getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
cp: cannot stat 'getopt-getopt': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'to': No such file or directory
root@Fonera:/root# cp getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
cp: cannot stat 'getopt': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'to': No such file or directory

Instead the fix for error in line 215 works :wink:

Anybody answers?

However I make plowshare working with this code

Code:

wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/openwrt-brcm24/cross/unstable/getopt_2.15-2_mipsel.ipk
tar zxvf getopt_2.15-2_mipsel.ipk
tar zxvf data.tar.gz
cd /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
ln -s getopt-getopt getopt

I hope it can be useful :wink:

There are 3 links in usr/bin :

Code:

 usr/bin/plowdel -> ../share/plowshare/delete.sh
 usr/bin/plowdown -> ../share/plowshare/download.sh
 usr/bin/plowup -> ../share/plowshare/upload.sh

and the size of share/plowshare is :

Code:

 du -h  usr/share/plowshare/
60.0k   usr/share/plowshare/modules
216.0k  usr/share/plowshare

That's all.

[quote="bisont87"]hi,

but commands to fix getopt respond me with these errors

Code:

root@Fonera:/root# cp getopt-getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
cp: cannot stat 'getopt-getopt': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'to': No such file or directory
root@Fonera:/root# cp getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
cp: cannot stat 'getopt': No such file or directory
cp: cannot stat 'to': No such file or directory

Sorry You have to remove the "to" in the command

Code:

cp getopt-getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
cp getopt to /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin  (this is a link to getop-getopt)

use this :

Code:

cp getopt-getopt /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin/
cp getopt /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin/

Yes, and Bash, Coreutils, Curl, Recode, Imagemagick and Tesseract.

I've added the getopt installation to the plowshare wiki page on f2n : http://wiki.fon.com/wiki/F2n_Plowshare

Thanks but I think I've solved with this symbolic link:

Code:

cd /tmp/run/mountd/sda1/opt/bin
ln -s getopt-getopt getopt

However it works

Another question.
Closing the session of putty with wich I start plowshare it stops. How to let it continue run and make a log? I tried with "> log.txt" but in the txt I didn't find anything.

Edit: I found "nohup" that makes a log redirecting the standard output to nohup.out and with the command "&" at the end it works in background

but with nohup is not possible to recall the process. -.-

Now I've to try "dtach" (installed from the repo into the usb) it seems to work but I dont'kow if I'll be able to have a log like with nohup.
Any suggestions?

There is the possibility of installing "aview" to also enable megaupload?

bisont87 · **Joined:** Tue Dec 15, 2009 22:13 **Posts:** 7

A new version of plowshare is out (0.9)!

Did anyone tried if it can be installed on fonera 2.0n without much problems alike the verison 8.1?
