[[How-to] Enable Usb Mass Storage With Swap Partition]

weird? I would re format the drive and re flash the pineapple to make sure it's not a glitch.

That did the trick. For anyone else that comes across this problem. It looks like updating the firmware with the usb drive in was the difference. If you update the firmware and reconfigure things you might wanna do it with the usb drive out. Second time around and I am back up and running.

Thanks for the help.

[[How-to] Enable Usb Mass Storage With Swap Partition]

if the mkswap command has already been run on that partition then that is normal.

I am curious why your using sdb2? and not sda2?

I have not run the mkswap command on the partition before and it still gives that error.

The sdb2 vs sda2 happens because of the following. If my fstab looks as follows

config mount
       option target   /usb
       option device   /dev/sdb1
       option fstype   ext4
       option options  rw,sync
       option enabled  1
       option enabled_fsck 0

config swap
       option device   /dev/sdb2
       option enabled  1

when I plug in the usb drive it will mount it at /dev/sda1 and /dev/sda2

if I change the fstab to the following

config mount
       option target   /usb
       option device   /dev/sda1
       option fstype   ext4
       option options  rw,sync
       option enabled  1
       option enabled_fsck 0

config swap
       option device   /dev/sda2
       option enabled  1

when plugging in the usb drive it mounts it to /dev/sdb2 which is the state I had it in when i posted the request for help. Changing it back and forth has not helped either way so I just posted in the state I was in. The problem with the command not returning the correct response is that it doesn't appear to be reading the usb as part of the memory right now.

[[How-to] Enable Usb Mass Storage With Swap Partition]

I keep getting the following message trying to create the swap on while the usb stick is plugged in

mkswap /dev/sdb2

/dev/sdb2: Device or resource busy

(I can switch it to sda2 by editing the fstab to have sdb init and when i mount the usb it will take the sda place).

Anyone have any thoughts on how to get past the device or resource busy error?

[Opkg Install Sslstrip Fails]

using the opkg module will not give you all the error details. ssh in and issue:

opkg update
opkg --dest usb install sslstrip

it will tell you more about the error this way. I tried to install a package the other day and found out this version of openwrt is the bleeding edge and the repository for this bleeding edge version unfortunately is always changing, newest bleeding edge version/kernel:-( IE pineapple is kernel 3.2 and repository is 3.3

Thanks this got it up and running for me. Appreciate the help
