-=== Preparing /jffs for /opt === 
-First step is to prepare /opt mount point for Optware and create ipkg.conf file for packages download 
- ~ # mkdir /jffs/opt 
- ~ # mkdir /jffs/tmp 
- ~ # mkdir /jffs/tmp/ipkg 
- ~ # mount -o bind /jffs/opt /opt  
- ~ # mkdir /opt/etc 
- ~ # vi /opt/etc/ipkg.conf 
-Edit and insert the following content 
- src optware http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable 
- dest root /jffs 
-Now we will point /bin/ipkg script to this config with setting environment variable 
- ~ # export IPKG_CONF_DIR=/opt/etc 
-This is enough to retrieve list of available packages with 
- ~ # ipkg update  
- Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/Packages ... 
- Connecting to ipkg.nslu2-linux.org[140.211.166.82]:80  
- Packages 100% |**********************************************| 259 KB 00:00:00 ETA 
- Done. 
- Updated list of available packages in //jffs/usr/lib/ipkg/lists/optware 
-If nothing is reported after /bin/ipkg update then probably /etc/resolv.conf does not contain 
-proper name server address like: 
- search local.lan 
- nameserver 192.168.1.1 
- 
- 
-Manual installing package ipkg-opt will automatically install also uclibc-opt package.  
- ~ # /bin/ipkg -d root install ipkg-opt 
-  
- Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/uclibc-opt_0.9.28-12_mipsel.ipk ...

- Done. 
- Unpacking uclibc-opt...Done. 
- Configuring uclibc-opt...Updating /opt/etc/ld.so.cache 
- Done.

- Done. 
- Unpacking ipkg-opt...Done. 
- Configuring ipkg-opt...Configuration file `/opt/etc/ipkg.conf' 
- ==> File on system created by you or by a script. 
- ==> File also in package provided by package maintainer. 
- What would you like to do about it ? Your options are: 
- Y or I : install the package maintainer's version 
- N or O : keep your currently-installed version 
- D : show the differences between the versions (if diff is installed) 
- The default action is to keep your current version. 
- *** ipkg.conf (Y/I/N/O/D) [default=N] ? y 
- Done. 
- 
-Note that we answered 'y' to install maintainer /opt/etc/ipkg.conf with the following contents: 
- #Uncomment the following line for native packages feed (if any) 
- #src/gz native http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/native/stable 
- src/gz optware http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable 
- dest /opt/ / 
- 
-If anything goes wrong when installing ipkg-opt then I recommend erasing /jffs/jffs and /jffs/usr directories 
-with 
- rm -rf /jffs/jffs 
- rm -rf /jffs/usr 
-and repeat /bin/ipkg update and /bin/ipkg install ipkg-opt 
- 
-Installing ipkg-opt package will maintain all packages installed in /opt directory along with its /opt/lib/ipkg 
-directory where /opt/bin/ipkg maintains its status files. There is also /opt/bin/ipkg-opt to save us from confusion. To update list of available packages issue 
- ~ # /opt/bin/ipkg-opt update 
- Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/Packages.gz 
- Inflating http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/Packages.gz 
- Updated list of available packages in /opt/lib/ipkg/lists/optware 
- Successfully terminated. 
- 
-List of available packages is provided with 
- ~ # /opt/bin/ipkg-opt list 
- 
-List of installed packages  
- ~ # /opt/bin/ipkg-opt list_installed 
- Successfully terminated. 
-will not show ipkg-opt and uclibc-opt as status file is now located in /opt/lib/ipkg/status and not /jffs/jffs/usr/lib/ipkg/status . To correct this issue we will reinstall the package itself with  
- ~ # /opt/bin/ipkg-opt install ipkg-opt 
- Installing ipkg-opt (0.99.163-9) to /opt/... 
- Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/ipkg-opt_0.99.163-9_mipsel.ipk 
- package uclibc-opt suggests installing ipkg-opt 
- Installing uclibc-opt (0.9.28-12) to /opt/... 
- Downloading http://ipkg.nslu2-linux.org/feeds/optware/ddwrt/cross/stable/uclibc-opt_0.9.28-12_mipsel.ipk 
- Configuring ipkg-opt 
- Configuring uclibc-opt 
- Updating /opt/etc/ld.so.cache 
- Successfully terminated. 
- 
-With clean Optware install two packages should be listed 
- ~ # /opt/bin/ipkg list_installed 
- ipkg-opt - 0.99.163-9 - The Itsy Package Manager 
- uclibc-opt - 0.9.28-12 - micro C library for embedded Linux systems 
- Successfully terminated. 
- 
-From now on no files outside /opt tree will be required for maintaining Optware packages. I even recommend erasing 
-spurious files with 
- # rm -rf /jffs/jffs /jffs/usr 
-Exporting IPKG_CONF_DIR is not neeeded any more.
