Usb Swap, Pineapple Restarting.

Hi there,

I have re-flashed my pineapple IV several times with the latest beta and the stable 2.5.0. Pineapple ALWAYS running off the mains. Each time I setup with USB storage swap from this awesome guide. http://forums.hak5.o...swap-partition/


config global automount
option from_fstab 1
option anon_mount 1
config global autoswap
option from_fstab 1
option anon_swap 1
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
[/CODE]

&

[CODE]
mkswap /dev/sda2
[/CODE]

All is well when issuing 'free' in the advanced section. It reports I have usb swap.

Then I found this posting about opkg and some modules requiring certain packages. so I use this code posted by

[b] Sebkinne http://forums.hak5.o...ad/page__st__20[/b]

[CODE]
sed -i 's/http:\/\/downloads.openwrt.org\/snapshots\/trunk\/ar71xx\/packages/http:\/\/cloud.wifipineapple.com\/packages/g' /etc/opkg.conf
[/CODE]

After which I install urlsnarf + sslstrip to the USB, and logs to the usb instead of internal. Perfecto installs great.

Now, after starting karma and urlsnarf, i connect my phone and goto a website. Urlsnarf works and displays in the log section as it should. Then stops.

I am suffering from random restarts/reboots/crashing of the pineapple. I am beginning to think its because of a lack of space? I read that somewhere on this forum trying to figure it out on my own.[b] I believe the pineapple is not using the USB swap as it should, as it seems to be 100% everytime I check.[/b]

I have used two USB sticks, one 8gb and another 4gb, I have used gparted and the built in one in ubuntu to create two partitions, both ext4 and [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]unchecking the ownership box etc.[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I believe my restarts are because of lack of free space. Have I missed a trick somewhere guys? - is there a way of forcing the pineapple to use the usb swap or something?[/font][/color][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]I look forward to hearing your thoughts.[/font][/color]
