Thanks for your efforts, and also again for your help over on the Oxnas thread.
I understand the rootfs also already contains the kernel (which Arch's uboot loaded just fine).
The only minor hurdle was that the original CloudEngines system's wget can't handle https and hence Dropbox, so I populated the stick on another machine.
Some things I noticed that others might find useful to read at some point.
While updating, the package manager repeatedly reports:
[code]perl: warning: Setting locale failed.
perl: warning: Please check that your locale settings:
LANGUAGE = (unset),
LC_ALL = (unset),
LC_TIME = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_MONETARY = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_ADDRESS = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_TELEPHONE = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_NAME = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_MEASUREMENT = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_IDENTIFICATION = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_NUMERIC = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LC_PAPER = "de_DE.UTF-8",
LANG = "C"
are supported and installed on your system.[/code]
For setting the time zone, not sure if there was supposed to be an easier way than
echo "Europe/Berlin" >/etc/timezone
dpkg-reconfigure --frontend noninteractive tzdata
...and where the time server (NTP host) is to be configured (to be updated frequently as there's no hwclock on these systems, or is it?).
The syslog no longer goes into a file (e.g. messages) in /var/log but can be made visible by invoking logread.
Apparently there is no ~/.bash_history anymore either.
Also, the following package does not seem to be there by default: apt-get install less
Does /etc/crontab (there's none by default) require special permissions or additional services installed?
Can't seem to get anything executed from it even after chmod 755 like the daily etc. directories/scripts.
LIRC's irsend not working via mcusb (HP Media Center Transceiver) at first made me wonder if you have CONFIG_USB_EHCI_TT_NEWSCHED & CONFIG_USB_EHCI_ROOT_HUB enabled in this kernel as per cf. [url]http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.drivers.video-input-infrastructure/67492/focus=67616[/url]) - however transmitting fails silently only until the USB module is replugged from the front to the top rear port (and service lirc stopped and started again of course) - then it even seems to be more reliable than on my (also Debian) Dockstar that's just celebrated a year of uptime.
