dCore Import Debian Packages to Mountable SCE extensions > Allwinner A10

Wireless

(1/2) > >>

roberts:
I posted a README-wifi.txt on how to import wireless stack and setup via wifi.sh, even for machines that may only have wireless, e.g., A10 Tablet.

The procedure has been tested on an A10 Tablet and a hackberry. Thanks goes to hlavery for preview, edits, and testing on the hackberry.

You can find it at http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/armv7/

Thank you! to you both.

Would it be possible to provide a download with the files required from steps 2/3 please??

This would allow it to be done from any platform.. (currently the only x86 tinycore i have is out of date and gives error 'useBusybox: not found', and i really can't update it right now.. i tried doing it on a VM but that was a nightmare too!)

I'm not sure i understand your point? Perhaps i was not clear enough, getting the text instructions is no problem. Perhaps they should have a txt extension, but it is not important.

 2. On your x86 machine at the command prompt perform the following:
    $ tce-load -w import       (this will download the import suite of scripts)
    $ tce-load -i import       (to load and ready for use)
 3. We are now ready to import for target armv7. Note that import will download the Debian
    Master index and create an import directory under your existing tce directory. It will
    not install or otherwise mix x86 with armv7. So, at the prompt
    $ import wireless-tools armv7
    $ import wpasupplicant armv7
 4. Next move all the imported files from the imported directories to your SD card's
    tce/optional directory.
 5. Finally, we will need to download some specific Core extensions, so at the prompt
    $ cd /mnt/mountpoint_of_SD/tce/optional
    $ sudo wget http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/armv7/tcz/8192cu.tcz
    $ sudo wget http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/armv7/tcz/wifi.tcz
    $ sudo wget http://repo.tinycorelinux.net/4.x/armv7/tcz/wifi.tcz.dep
 6. Remove the SD card by moving off the card and unmouunting
    $ cd
    $ sudo umount /mnt/mountpoint_of_SD/tce/optional

What i am seeking is (an archive with) the files from step 2/3 here, which is the only part that requires an x86 tinyCore. If someone were providing a download on the site proper (which would be awesome), then including the files in step 5 too might be a good idea, but these could easily be downloaded with any system.
