It's the same with me. But when I run my two boxes in parallel, I get twice this rate. Memory usage is approximately the same as yours, cpu load much less. I didn't care too much about this cause I'm not that big downloader. Did you already try to play with down/upload speed configuration?

A solid base is something you can build on. In this case a sys directory containing all needed libraries and init files and (very important especially in your case) a root directory (home dir for user root) with appropriate rights.

Unzipping in WIN is done as user 'nobody' which is quite different from doing that as root.

And 'untaring' in WIN is almost impossible because WIN does not know about 'symlinks'

Here is a short guide on how to install mldonkey.

Your box must be equipped with one of JKR's firmwares.
First you should have a solid base in your box.
My base already contains mc (the filemanager 'midnight commander') and many more usefull tools (all supplied by JKR).
Please use PuTTY to telnet to your box if using WIN to have mouse support in mc.
You can download my base from here

http://rapidshare.com/files/111788923/C.zip.html

Unzip it to your box (\\192.168.xxx.xxx\Storage\C or \\192.168.xxx.xxx\Public or /mnt/C depending on how your box is configured and what system you are using to do the unzip).
You now have the file C.tar at this place.
Download this file  from JKR's addons

http://mgb111.pradnik.net/addons/mldonkey-2.9.4-multi.tar

Copy it to the same location.

Login to your box as root using telnet (password is 'admin' or 'airlive' by default).
Backup all valuable data, if any, in /mnt/C/sys/ and /mnt/C/root (this of course can also be done before).
Type in the following commands:


The last command closes the connection and your box reboots.

Login to your box again as root using telnet.
Edit '/mnt/C/root/.mldonkey/downloads.ini' to add your pc (or all machines in your subnet) to the list of allowed gui clients.
You can use 'e3' wchich is a simple wordstar like editor (or mc or vi or ...).


These lines work in my installation


All 192.168.178.xxx and 192.168.123.xxx adresses and the box itself are allowed.

Now you can start mldonkey


Wait a minute or three until the message 'core started' appears on screen.


Now you should be able to use your webbrowser to connect to mldonkey using an URL like this

http://192.168.xxx.xxx:4080/

Hope I didn't forget anything

ps. All this is running also on my mgb100 box. If anyone wants to know more, simply ask

pps. I forgot to mention that swapping must be active on your box. Check with


when logged in.

If anybody wants to use a download tool with web gui, why not use mldonkey from here

http://mgb111.pradnik.net/addons/

which has one.

I suppose you are using one of JKR's 'advanced' images. Then you should copy his 'nfs-utils.tar' addon to /mnt/C/ and untar it there. But in principle you can put it at any (mounted) place you like if you use full pathname to start them. Same is true for all (or at least most) other addons of JKR. Have a look at your $PATH variable.

@cypresstwist
Modifications to the root partition can only be done by building a new image. But I'm not shure if you really need this.
chimbo

Not from telnet session. Why don't you remove the disk and connect it to a pc (either directly or using usb)?
chimbo

There is no buildin support for ext3 fs in this firmware.

@ Aqualung
At your first posts I thought, what an impertinent person, hiding himself behind Bill Gates. He should really have kept his mouth closed. But as time went by, I don't want to miss his contributions. Not only because of increasing knowledge, but of being pleased by someone walking in the steps of Shakespeare. NO FUN!

Hi JKR
could you please tell us how did you find out THIS?
chimbo

You are really a fast one. Thank you very much

chimbo

Hi JKR,
thank you for building this kernel and for readding fat and nfs. Could you please be so kind to make /etc/exports a symlink pointing to a location somewhere in r/w fs e.g. /var/config/exports. Maybe then I can do some tests, although I've never been using nfs before. If you need an example of how to build a system using nfs-utils then have a look at schufti's sources for the mgb100. All needed binaries are already included.
chimbo

Did you already try to implement NFS? There are many people who yearn for this. When I enable kernel support for NFS, I get an image that is rejected with "Unallowable ..." error. Probably because the kernel surpasses a limited size.

Hi Slawek,

just tried out your image. Very impressive!
How do you configure vsftpd? Seems that /etc/vsftpd.conf doesn't do the job.

chimbo

excuse me, I don't know anything about xbox360, but I can't imagine why it shouldn't be able to communicate over standardized paths. DLNA??? I first have to google for it to say anything. But access via IE ore firefox: no problem! At least if you use last img with anonymous access.
