What should I add to sources.list to access it?
It should be
Code:
Or something similar, but it's not yet available -though I have uploaded lots of packages, but the server is on the move so it should be available in the next couple of days.

Hello,

Just a quick question. I've downloaded the img.xz.

How I run the image? should I do dd to a SD card?

I've try xzcat efika.img.xz > efika.img and I get an error.

Thanks & regards.

What is the error you get? if xzcat doesn't decompress the image maybe it didn't download completely.

xzcat: efika.img.xz: File format not recognized

I've downloaded twice, in mac osx and linux server and both show the same error.

thanks

I'm downloading a copy myself now to check. I seem to have a good copy here already though so lets compare it.

If it is efikamx-armhf-20120226.img.xz as linked in the first page of this thread it should be 795MB in size and if you run md5sum on it it should look like this:
84c778e032542a1a9fafd76e3f2b5a1a efikamx-armhf-20120226.img.xz

If it doesn't match up I would expect its either an incomplete download or its corrupted somehow.

I have run into problems like this before and ended up using wget to grab the image. if the image download fails at any point you can use wget -c to continue where you left off.

I'm waiting for my second download to complete I will compare what is up on PD to what I have and see if they match/extract here.

hello,

i've try to download it again with curl -O and this is the result:

md5 efika.img.xz
MD5 (efika.img.xz) = 4aa7a80229081a32b860962f8fc002d2

it's exactly the same as the file I've downloaded before.

and I get the same message error:

xzcat efika.img.xz > efika.img
xzcat: efika.img.xz: File format not recognized

Regards!

Yeah. I got the same results as you. my guess is the download on the server is corrupted somehow I just asked someone to look into it.

It may take a while to get that download fixed, In the meantime I've temporarily put a copy on my private webserver for you. *link removed*
This version should work.

I will take that link down and make a post here when the official PD download is fixed.

*edit*
It's fixed now.

Hi.

The downloads on PowerDeveloper have been fixed. It was a remnant of the server migration...

i used install-armhf.sh ssd /dev/sda ( i have removed all files from ssd before run installation )
with "us" repo, script ran fine and finished succesfuly but smarttop doesn't boot (dark screen instead of linux booting screen). how i can check what happened ? only using debug console ? if yes where i can get debug console pinout ? i have a lot usb/serial ttl converters to use instead of efika debug console.

smarttop still can be booted from SD card (with latest armhf)

Thanks!

FIXED: removed /dev/sda1, /dev/sda2 by fdisk and rebuilt using the same script, boots and works as necessary

QUESTION: is http://www.powerdeveloper.org/forums/vi ... php?t=2201 patch still valid ? smarttop really boots only 6-7 times of 10, hangs on green led w/o disk activity

As far as I know there will be 3d drivers in the new apt repository that will be put up soon.

we are just waiting to get the server set up (moving to a new office and still setting up the network there)

If you really need the packages now though. they are on the armhf + 3d image inside the /root directory. probably better to wait for the repo to come up though since markos has been working on those packages quite a bit since the time that that image was released.
