Vocore Upgrade
Posted: Sun Mar 13, 2016 7:46 pm
Hi...
I'm hoping to use quite a few Vocores for a "IOT" project... but there are problems with the Openwrt image.
Openwrt apparently deleted the "Barrier Breaker" archives, so I upgraded to Chaos Calmer.
But many of the executables in the current Openwrt packages are not binary compatible with the version of Chaos Calmer for Vocore. I get "file not found" errors, or when I install older binaries, it breaks compatibility with many of the system libraries (like libc).
Also: the system partition is only 4.6M and most of the system space is under /tmp, so there isn't enough room to install the packages needed.
I am working on compiling my own version of Openwrt but am afraid that will create more problems than it solves.
Any advice is appreciated... I would like all the storage under the root partition and need to get an OS image that is compatible with the current packages...
Thank you,
CW
