[Partitioning Ext4 Usb Drive For Markiv]

An alternative for the micro-sd's and the readers could be the nano drives - I found a bunch in different colors but you might not get to the larger capacities yet. http://www.cyberguys.com/product-search/?keyword=nano+usb for examples. I've only seen the micro's in black. I guess they assume they're fitting inside of devices so why bother with colors.

[Mk4 Questions]

Okay, here's a Mk4 question. What's the WPS button for?

My first thought was that if it was a default image it would be a sign that you were vulnerable to Reaver attacks. That got me thinking... How about assigning it the function of LAUNCHING Reaver. Turn it on its head and use it to our advantage. It would obviously have to write to files for later use but that's the nice thing about Reaver and WPS vulns. Once you have that back door you're golden. Yes, we could just have it launch via gui or ssh but that's not as amusing.

[Markiv: What We Know And What We Don't Know]

Very nice aggregation! I've just gotten my IV yesterday and am trying to sort things out still. It's the first already built pineapple I've dealt with so I'm sort of working backwards this time. My first stop was the wiki so that's definitely the place for it. I tend to hit the forums for new ideas and issues as a secondary.

[Alpha Ap51 Redboot Access]

Another quick question - has everyone had to compile their own hostapd from source or did I miss where someone provided the patched one that works on Backfire and Atheros? I figure the question might save some people some time.

[Alpha Ap51 Redboot Access]

I hope I'm missing something in getting redboot access enabled on the Alpha AP51. I think that's what's killing the AP51 upload. I've also tried the Fonflash. I've tried getting redboot access via redboot scripts as well with no luck. Is there a .bin file that I can upload to the AP51 to allow redboot access? I've searched on multiple forums (especially here) including Alpha's support docs trying to find a way in. Am I left with a serial connection as the only other option now? I can get redboot prompts all day long on the Fon routers from the redboot scripts so I know I'm communicating on the network interfaces properly.

I'm running XP SP3 on the box I'm using to connect with a dedicated 10/100 NIC set as 192.168.0.100 with alternate IP of 192.168.1.100 for talking to the default AP web interface. Attached is the image of the Fonflash program that just sits there after it finds the AP51. The same thing happens with Freifunk AP51 EasyFlash. It appears that the AP just continues on with it's boot process after the connection leading me to believe that it's not opening the redboot either.

The AP51 is straight out of the box with the r1600 firmware applied (came that way). I'm using the flash files that came with the build-pineapple download.

Any suggestions of possible images that I can successfully load through the web interface to downgrade it and allow redboot telnet access would be most appreciated. I'm hoping the loader will allow non-standard images.

Thanks in advance!

Appended -

I've managed to finally get the AP51 to connect and upload - I had to run Wireshark to see where the device was thinking it actually lived. It was on a completely different subnet. I've since gotten the access and files updated. I also had been using the correct files but I had dumped them into my build-pineapple directory.

I've noted below the install order I used to avoid dependency problems when uploading the files needed for the pineapple to be happy.

install order to avoid dependancy issues of packages from Backfire package download locations Obviously you want to go into the Atheros folders and you'll have to backtrack a few RCs to find everything that you need in particular the PHP.

[Episode 6x18]

Hey there, I've been hanging out on the #zipit irc channel and we've come to the conclusion that the chipset will NOT support replays or injection. I was able to do some wireshark monitoring but it would not allow me to send out. <_<

Anyways, I've been rooted on the droid for about five days now and haven't actually had much of a chance to do much with it, not for a lack of wanting. (ok, so I've been on the hunt for pineapples) Honestly, I've been happy just poking around the filesystem. At the moment there are 72 apps listing root on the Market. I've looked at a few so far but don't forget about the tether option now! PdaNet is free on the Market and I've used their software for tethering in the past on my 8125 and Tilt (before jumping ship to the big V) PdaNet supports both Mac and Win.

I'd love to see what anyone else has gotten to run. Mobile web/mail server anyone? As far as war-driving, check out G-Mon on the market (free as well). It's got some nice features and a clean interface including google map overlay.
