--- Code: ---# Example usage:
# tce-load -i /mnt/hda1/tce/optional/nano.tcz   Loads local extension
# tce-load -w -i nano.tcz                       Download into tce/optional directory, links for OnBoot and installs
# tce-load -w nano.tcz                          Download only into tce/optional directory

--- End code ---

I'm a little confused just what options cause the "boot link" to be created in /tce ? Are both -w and -i required?

Could a little more explanation be provided.

Operationally the same combination of flags.
-w only  = download only
-i  only = loads local from specified path
-w -i = downloads and sets up link for on boot.

Also, any progress on the dropbear extension?

--- End quote ---

ftp was dropped. Where is ftp shown? AFAIK, not shown when booted base norestore. What window manager are you using?

--- End quote ---

I booted from cd iso. I'll try again with base norestore.

If you are talking about control panel tftp server, that is still available.

--- Code: ---# If not interactive then check for easy mode or inplace batch update
--- End code ---

--- End quote ---

easy mode and inplace mode are not new in this RC. Both are batch updates.

easy mode checks disk space available for update of all extensions, if so, creates an upgrade folder and updates download into upgrade folder, upon boot upgrade is completed before loading of extensions.

In place mode, is for smaller devices, e.g., a small pendrive, here each extension to be updated is downloaded into /tmp, md5 checked, then moved to replace existing extension.

Interactive mode is intended solely for calls from appsaudit.

--- Code: ---Usage tce-audit: {builddb|dependson|requiredby|nodepends|audit|auditall|delete|marked} extname
--- End code ---

--- End quote ---

To build the database of dependices you need to specify dir, e.g.:
tce-audit builddb /mnt/hda2/tce/optional

To check for missing denpendencies on all extensions you need to specify a dir, e.g.:
tce-audit auditall /mnt/hda2/tce/optional

To display all extensions that have no dependencies you need to specify a dir, e.g.:
tce-audit nodepends /mnt/hda2/tce/optional

For all other reports use the full path, e.g.:
tce-audit requiredby /mnt/hda2/tce/optional/webkit.tcz
tce-audit dependson /mnt/hda2/tce/optional/midori.tcz

It is much easier to use appsaudit which loads up the path and makes selecting and reporting via the GUI very nice.

Of course using shell's edit capability of 'up arrorw' and 'tab completion' makes the cli easy as well.

I will remove it.
