Optware & IPKG Install Guide

Once you have root access, you can start to install packages using IPKG.

Step 1 - Create a temp folder to download and run Optware installation file

 cd /tmp
 wget http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs05q3armel/cross/stable/teraprov2-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm.xsh
 sh ./teraprov2-bootstrap_1.2-7_arm.xsh

Step 2 - Edit /opt/etc/ipkg.conf and add

 src cs08q1 http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/stable/
 # src cs08q1-unstable http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/cs08q1armel/cross/unstable/

(If you wish to use the unstable branch you can uncomment it.)

After that just run `ipkg update` and you can then install packages with `ipkg install package` You can view list of installed packages with `ipkg list_installed`

(Note: In case you don't use array configuration and lost your Optware configuration after reboot, please 1) Reinstall the ipkg 2) 'mv /mnt/array1/.optware /mnt/disk1' 3) adapt /etc/init.d/rc.optware by replacing 'array1' with 'disk1' 4) Reboot. )

Notes

This is another new generation of LinkStation Pro, even newer than the LS-XHL and has again a faster CPU. LS-VL and LS-QVL should be similar except for the number of supported hard disks.
