Kool Aid Served Daily

I have two slugs. One is working and the other is not. I can't discover it either on my home subnet or 192.168.1.0/24. nmap can't find it. I don't have a serial port on it.

upslug2 can find it in upgrade mode:

tdh@sneaker:~/sluggo/slugos-4.8-beta/nslu2be.tmp$ upslug2
[no NSLU2 machines found in upgrade mode]
tdh@sneaker:~/sluggo/slugos-4.8-beta/nslu2be.tmp$ upslug2
LKG881183 00:0f:66:88:11:83 Product ID: 1 Protocol ID:0 Firmware Version: R23V63 [0x2363]

So I unloaded OpenSlug and put back the latest Linksys firmware. I still couldn't find it. I did the 10 second push of the reset button and I still couldn't find it.

I found a website which had the manual online. I did a 2 second push of the reset button and I could then find it at 192.168.1.77. I couldn't change the IP of the box though. So I've reflashed OpenSlug onto it and I'm going to see if I can get access at the 192.168.2.77 address.

Okay, I am seeing this problem: Error: Fail to get samba information. But that didn't work, so I'm off to try this one: NSLU2, power problem, samba not found.

Okay, why didn't I try this: FailSambaInformation?

Some notes:

• My putty was not where they wanted it.
• It will start putty up for you, which is so sweet!
• I named the batch file redboot.bat at first.
• Make sure to reconfigure your connecting box from 192.168.1.0/24 to 192.168.0.0/24. Arrghhh!

There is no way of telling what firmware I used to have on that NSLU2. But now my system is working!
