Is Entware compatible with Gargoyle?

[zespri]

Did anyone try to run Entware on Gargoyle? Does it work?

I want to try and run weave-mimal on the router and there is an Entware package for it.

Is there a chance that it will actually work?

Cheer,

I'm also wondering this as there is a large collection of binaries at:
http://entware.dyndns.info/binaries/
for entware and mipselsf - some of which I'd like to use. They are ipk files so that's a good start. And they have the source on github so that's reassuring.

How would one check if they are compatible? How do I even tell my gargoyle router to "opkg update" package lists from entware so that I can then install an ipk and see if it works? I'm using a WNDR 3700 v1 and Gargoyle is fantastic on it.

Wouldn't have a clue if they are compatible.
You can add them as custom repositories under the System>Plugins menu

Assuming it works, you will likely need to recompile the binary from source for the specific firmware and router you are using. Binary is not likely to work as is.

So funny this was brought back up recently... my NAS had an updated to custom mod running on it to give it Entware support to replace optware. Anywho, I installed this already on my router in temp folder, lol and lists all packages, yet to try installing anything yet. I used MIPS compatible build: https://github.com/Entware-ng/Entware-ng/wiki

Followed this:
https://github.com/Entware-ng/Entware-n ... -on-DD-WRT

If it works, going to attempt to make a plugin for this custom list cause think some people would find it useful.



Update:

Code: Select all

Works fine. Next stop, plugin. Or is there an easy way to add it to current opgk list under plugins?
