create standalone ipkg

[michelinok]

Since ipk for fonera is broken, is there a way to compile gargoyle inside openwrt as a package? I mean: is there a way to copy the source of the package gargoyle inside the "package" folder of openwrt then compile it?

Thanks!

What device do you have and what are you trying to do?

Are you adding features or trying to make a custom build?

Sounds like you have a Fonera?

Eric already compiles builds for the Fonera if so.
You are aware that Gargoyle uses OpenWRT and that
the Gargoyle portion is actually the GUI interface?

Under the Downloads / Atheros section:

gargoyle_1.0.8-atheros-root.squashfs
gargoyle_1.0.8-atheros-vmlinux.lzma

Those are the 2 files needed, you can use Fon Flash,
or manually flash through a TFTP server.

I've been using the Atheros builds since the early beta's
and they run fine, no issues.

Eric also said: I also added a note that newer versions of OpenWrt use opkg, not ipkg.

That might be why you can't use the ipkg command.

Is there anything configured that you need on the Fonera?

Simplest would be to completely wipe it and then do a
fresh install of the latest 1.0.8 build.

Whenever I upgrade/flash my Fonera 2201+ I always do an

fis init -f

to completely wipe the flash except for redboot, and then
fresh install.

I wonder if your build of Open WRT that's currently on your
Fonera is not the same that's required for the newer versions
of Gargoyle? Eric mentioned using the latest code I think.

I compile my own openwrt image because i need some packages integrated, I NEED a jfss filesystem (the gargoyle images are squashfs) plus i need some other simple customization.
The package gargoyle plus some others are broken for la fonera, so i cannot install it over my system.

The "broken" (platform not compatible, or a similar message...) packages are:

haserl-dev
qos-gargoyle
ddns-gargoyle
httpd-gargoyle
bwmon-gargoyle
gargoyle

Of course...I've checked that i download packages for my architecure!

[michelinok]

I usually do:

svn co svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk/
cd trunk
make menuconfig
make package/symlinks
./scripts/feeds update -a
./scripts/feeds install -a
make menuconfig

doing a lot of personalization about packages and jffs, so i really need a way to integrate gargoyle inside my config.

Hmm... looks like my original report was in error. I think I tried installing on top of an older version of OpenWrt I had lying around and got the error message you report. I just tried again tonight with the latest OpenWrt version (8.09.1), and it seems to work fine.

Make sure you install the latest stable kamikaze version (8.09.1), and then use opkg (not ipkg) to install, and it should work fine. I notice you are building images from trunk -- that might be your problem. It will not work with the trunk. As noted in the FAQ, only stable versions of OpenWrt are supported.

Sorry for the erroneous confirmation... I have had a lot going on lately preparing for the move (which I just completed).

[michelinok]

Ok!
Great! With the stable trunk it install perfectly, but i have some problems with the client bridge configuration that doesn't work...(with your images works ok!).

Thanks again!
