Picch Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Hey All, I've been playing around with this the last day or two and wanted to share with everyone. Installing modules to USB is extremely easy, I'm still playing around to ensure there aren't lingering effects as a result of the change I made. All modules and their data are stored by the looks of things in /www/pineapple/modules. So all we need to do is move the modules directory to the flash drive and create a symlink in its place. Steps are as follows, I'd suggest not having the web interface open while doing this: 1) mv /www/pineapple/modules /usb/modules 2) ln -s /usb/modules /www/pineapple/modules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did something just like this but for the logs folder in /www/pineapple/logs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sebkinne Posted April 8, 2012 Share Posted April 8, 2012 Yeah, for the time being that will work. The system that will be coming soon is a little smarter. It checks space etc and recommends install locations. Devs can then specify a rough estimate how much extra space (appart from the files) may be needed. Say for logs, pcap files etc. It is pretty much done, just need to iron out a few things. Best, Sebkinne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait to see the smarter version that Seb is referring to. :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
