OS6 now works on x86 Legacy WARNING: NO NTGR SUPPORT!
Update: It is now unofficially possible using NTGR images to update legacy hardware to os6.X See Post #3, for directions to install 6.2.1 on x86 Ultra and Pro Models. (ARM NOT SUPPORTED by this OS) ...
mdgm and I have decided that its time to lock this thread. So please do post any new OS6 on Legacy issues on their own threads.
Hi.
Big thanks to AMRivlin, chirpa, mgdm, horim80, bajorgensen, demetris and whomever I forgot for making OS6 available to our legacy devices.
My Pro 2 failed catastrophically, and I just got a new back from RMA.
After installing 4.2.22, I had severe problems with locale on the command line, so I decided to install OS6.
Here locales were even more limited, but this time I managed to fix it.
(I'm a linux noob, but this forum and a lot of googling helped)
My trick to get norwegian locale installed was to
1. apt-get install locales-all - to install missing files
2. apt-get install locales - to install missing files
3. modify /etc/locale.gen and uncomment only the locales I needed
4. apt-get remove locales-all
5. /data/home/<user>/.profile : export LANG=nb_NO.utf-8
step 4 will create the locales defined in /etc/locale.gen, and remove the rest (i think :-) )
Then I set putty window translation to utf-8 and everything works good.
Now I only have to wait for the sync from Amazon S3 to complete, and I'm back in business :)
Thanks a lot.
