Okay I just got my CF-card reader and fdisk'ed and makefs.ext'ed my 8GB CF-card.

I wondered why the CF card isn't mounted and found out that the default /etc/fstab is wrong. So i tried to make this "simple change" directly within mxrcvt.. It was a pain. I just couldn't do it. So I installed this https://www.mobileread.com/forums/sho...9&postcount=46 ssh access package that is done pretty well. Just its named so badly, this is hardly an "unbrickable iliad now".

Okay CF mounts now, I played around with the wikipedia stuff and stop at following error.txt message:
Quote:
File "web.py", line 22, in <module>
db = bz2wiki.Bz2WikiDB(mainfilename)
File "/media/cf/wiki/bz2wiki.py", line 41, in __init__
self.cdb_file = seekbzip2.SeekableBzip2File(basefn+'.cdb.bz2',base fn+'.cdb.bzt')
File "/media/cf/wiki/seekbzip2.py", line 20, in __init__
self.init_table()
File "/media/cf/wiki/seekbzip2.py", line 34, in init_table
for line in open( self.table_filename ):
IOError: [Errno 2] No such file or directory: '../wikidata/enwiki-20080312-pages-articles.xml.cdb.bzt'
Okay I'm stupid I forgot copy over the other wikidata file. I did this now, no error message. But also no wikipedia. The processor light just keeps blinking after I clicked the link in Wikipedia.html but nothing happens.

Strange enough If I point my normal notebook at the (the Iliads IP) 192.168.1.104:8080 I *DO* get a wikipedia! Seems to be a problem with the buildin browser then...

Oh it works now... strange.... but COOOOOOOLLLLLL!

Okay the buildin browser is a pain, I cannot normally search a single side, or select the search box... I'll have to install one of the other browsers... but not today anymore

Okay I installed dilo, definitely better than the default browser... but still everything extremely slow. And the scrollbar is almost out of the screen! Nor do the up/down buttons work at all. *Sigh* Iliad, its all so much beta ...its all so much slow... I fear in this state I cannot use it "to show off", since when I demonstrate it, I will likely tear my hair...
