GadgetPC / Re: Install Debian from a Debian box?
« on: May 30, 2010, 01:40:34 am »
Please show a log  your board sends to a console

Note, the board sends  bootstrap/u-boot debug messages
even without USB flash

Please read the latest page of
http://www.bipom.com/documents/boards/gadgetpc/GadgetPC%20Debian%20Installation%20Guide.pdf
"6. Alternative releases for advanced Linux users".
All you need is to download the prepared images and copy a disk hard  drive

Also, you can install Debian on QEMU and then  copy to a real disk hard drive ( USB Flash or microSD).
This link provides a detailed instruction

GadgetPC / Re: MD300 Sony Ericsson Modem on GadgetPC
« on: April 26, 2010, 04:27:37 am »
After many experiments we decided not  to use MD300 USB modem with GadgetPC. Unfortunately this modem works badly with USB Full Speed  Host port.
It works nice with USB High Speed  Host port.
We tested both ports on a PC  platform.
On Gadget PC we have a full speed port.
Thus we switched to modems from Sierra.
We tested Sierra Compass855 Aircard device. It worked very well.
http://www.sierrawireless.com/product/compass_885.aspx
Also, this modem is added to GadgetPC release.
So I guess you will not face any problems to configure and use that.
We tested the modem on AT&T network without authorization and with PAP authorization.
In both cases the modem worked reliable.
Please let me know if you need extra help to get started.

GadgetPC / Re: Installing a New Wireless Adapter

1. You can cross-compile under Ubuntu. We provide a virtual machine image on bipomftp.
2. If you have Debian on GadgetPC you can compile using native GCC

You can try any model if a corresponding Linux driver is available.
If Linux driver is not available from a manufacturer
as the 1st step it is necessary to check VID/PID of the new adapter. Then, check Internet to see if somebody uses it under Linux.
If so,   there is a big chance to get it working with GadgetPC.

GadgetPC / Re: Wifi/WPA2/dhcp on GadgetPC Debian.

To make the WiFi connection faster
it is necessary to add 1 extra line to /etc/network/interfaces

pre-up iwconfig wlan0 rate 54M

The new DEBIAN release is added to BIPOMFTP
linux2.6.30.4_15Feb2010.tar.bz2
debian_rootfs_17Feb2010.tar.bz2

It includes BiPOM installer to detect the used board (GadgetPC or Mini-Max/ARM9) to install all the necessary drivers automatically.

Also, it configures all network interfaces automatically
if your network has DHCP server.

Note. In case of WiFi it is necessary to edit SSID/PASSWORD
of /etc/network/interfaces

The latest Debian release to support WiFi ( DLink WUA1340) /WPA2/ with the fixed IP is added to Bipom FTP public server (bipomftp@www.bipom.com)

FTP Username = bipomftp
FTP Password = guest123!
http://www.bipom.com/support/gadgetpc/bipomftp.png

Linux kernel: linux2.6.30.4_06Feb2010.tar.bz2
RootFS (Debian Lenny): debian_rootfs_06Feb2010.tar.bz2
Platform: BiPOM ARM9260
Features: UVC camera, DLink WiFi interface, mc, swap support, man-db, WAP2-PSK, ssh, telnetd

To run  the system it is necessary to:
- prepare a dual-partition USB drive
Read http://www.bipom.com/documents/boards/gadgetpc/GadgetPC%20Debian%20Installation%20Guide.pdf ;
- adapt U-Boot of Gadget PC to mount USB drive as ROOTFS
Code: [Select]
setenv bootargs mem=32M console=ttyS1,115200 root=/dev/sda2 rw rootwait
setenv bootcmd \'usb start; fatload usb 0:1 0x21000000 uimage; bootm 0x21000000\'
saveenv
;
- adapt /etc/network/interfaces to your network
Code: [Select]
# The wireless network WPA2-PSK interface
auto wlan0
iface wlan0 inet static
address 192.168.1.211
netmask 255.255.255.0
gateway 192.168.1.1
wpa-psk "your_password"
wpa-driver wext
wpa-key-mgmt WPA-PSK
wpa-proto WPA2
wpa-ssid "your_ssid"
;

- assign WPA2-PSK authentication to your wireless network

Note, the instruction describes all steps how to start from scratch. It is for advanced users who wants to generate
everything from ZERO point.

I guess you have to use the existing packages from bipomftp.

http://www.bipom.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1263702424/1#1

1)
Download 2 packages ( Linux kernel and Debian RootFs)
to /home/mini/fs/debian folder
Linux kernel: linux2.6.30.4_06Feb2010.tar.bz2
RootFS (Debian Lenny): debian_rootfs_06Feb2010.tar.bz2

change to that folder
cd  /home/mini/fs/debian

2) Insert  the Flash USB drive to a PC
Let\'s say you have Linux partitions called EXT3
and MSDOS partition called FAT. I mean labels
It has to mount your 2 partitions to
/dev/sdb1 -> /media/FAT
/dev/sdb2 -> /media/EXT3

3)
sudo tar [ch8211]xvjf  debian_rootfs_06Feb2010.tar.bz2

Password is max

It will create EXT3 folder under /home/mini/fs/debian

 4)
Copy all files from EXT3 folder to your Linux partition

sudo cp -R EXT3/* /media/EXT3

5)
sudo tar [ch8211]xvjf  linux2.6.30.4_06Feb2010.tar.bz2
It will create FAT folder under /home/mini/fs/debian

 6)
Copy all files from FAT folder to your  MSDOS partition

sudo cp -R FAT/* /media/FAT

Note, all the steps are described in details on the last page
of the installation guide.


7) Edit /media/EXT3/etc/network/interfaces file to match your needs

8) Unmount Flash drive, connect to Gadget PC.

 Don\'t forget to adapt U-Boot
Code: [Select]
setenv bootargs mem=32M console=ttyS1,115200 root=/dev/sda2 rw rootwait
setenv bootcmd \'usb start; fatload usb 0:1 0x21000000 uimage; bootm 0x21000000\'
saveenv

NOT ./iwconfig
BUT ./iwconfig rausb0 key 1237489567

GadgetPC / Re: linux on gadgetpc
« on: January 28, 2010, 03:20:35 am »
the correct syntax is

cd /mnt/usb/wireless/sbin
./ifconfig rausb0 192.168.1.15 netmask 255.255.255.0 up
route add default gw 192.168.1.1 rausb0
./iwpriv rausb0 set SSID="franklin"
./iwconfig rausb0 key 1237489567

>ESSID is ""
it has to be franklin on both GPC and router

yes, it can do DHCP.
But in case of WiFi connection the current Shell files do not try to use DHCP. So it can\'t be a problem.
Note, we provide a complete set of wireless executables
under /mnt/usb/wireless/sbin folder
So you can play with different SSID, keys, etc.
/mnt/usb/wireless/sbin/iwconfig rausb0 key KEY
      /mnt/usb/wireless/sbin/iwpriv rausb0 set SSID= SSID

Also, you can use iwlist to  look at the existing network
In my opinion, the hardware layer worked.
I mean WiFi adapters. Also, IPs are correct.
You have problems only with authorization to your Access Point (AP).

Also, did you try to connect to AP ( your router) from a PC with the same key, ssid, wep ?

did you re-check SSID ?
