yes, as the topic says, if I do the following command. ipkg update (yes as root) i got a message that says "Segmentation fault" and I have no clue why it doesn't work. could it be the physical unit that have been damage by electrical variations in the electrical power distribution?
or what could it be?
Yeah, Busyboxes ipkg is horrible. Well, you can patch the build-system and compile the full version of ipkg and disable BB's ipkg crap in menuconfig. Solved the segfault problem at least for me and Bartman. The full version adds about 60K to the image, IIRC.
Patch for full version of ipkg: http://downloads.openwrt.org/people/agb … kaze.patch
Create the ~/.openwrt/defconfig file (automatically disables BB's ipkg and enables full ipkg):
# CONFIG_BUSYBOX_CONFIG_IPKG is not set
CONFIG_PACKAGE_ipkg=yThen get the build-system, packages patch it with full version of ipkg and run menuconfig. Finally build OpenWrt.
