looks like your author file never gets run. did you chmod it?

[snake98]

I did, and the telnet was working, then I ran lgkahn script, superpatch67 script, set my name, and also set the cron job to run via echo command by alphawolf. If the authorscript wasn't running, would their be more problems, the tivo works fine, must no mrv, and telnet.

All depends on what you have running from your .author. Regardless, the output you have above is pretty clear. Can you get in via serial? If so just go in and check rc.sysinit.author's permissions.

[snake98]

I have a strage feeling that bash is not enable by default on the serial port, time to go looking for the command, and add it to the author file.
Thanks for your Help, I'll give it a try tonight.

No it's not...but if your author file isn't executing this won't help, will it? You may have to pull the drive at this point.

[lgkahn]

the script has nothing to do with the rc.sysinit.author you either typed the wrong info in the script

and most likely you commented lines out on your rc.sysinit.author and forgot to get rid of dos line endings and make it executable again..

I recommend running the ftp deamon that automatially sets all files it receives to executable...

[snake98]

I think what happend is when I echo alpahwalfs instruction on the dcron into the rc.sysint file, it may have made in un excutable. I'll pull the drive and chmodd the file. also, I belive my rc.sysinit does not have .author after it. but it was loading the telnet befoer, would this make a difference with lgkahn script?

[Gunnyman]

you NEED the author file. It is a user created batch file to call your hacks and such.
rc.sysinit is the startup script created by TIVO and probably shouldn't be messed with.

As gunnyman pointed out, rc.sysinit and rc.sysinit.author are two separate files. rc.sysinit is put there by Tivo and it does a lot of system stuff. Generally the philosophy around here is to leave it alone.

rc.sysinit.author is, by convention, the file that most of us launch our various hacks from. Normally rc.sysinit calls rc.sysinit.author. In your case we know this is so because the error listed above shows that it TRIED to call rc.sysinit.author and failed.

If that true, then I should be able to ping it, but I can't, will rerunning your script mess it things up, or is it safe to rerun it.

[snake98]

I"m trying to get a bash prompt over serial so I can rerun Lgkahn, but I can't seem to get it, I added this to my rc.sysint file

/bin/bash </dev/ttyS3 > & /dev/ttyS3 &


but I still don't get a bash promt in hyper termial, any ideas

My serial output is attached.

[hayreass]

Yeah,
If it's an Series 2, you need ttyS2, not S3.
According to NutKase, the preferred line is./bin/bash </dev/ttyS2&>/dev/ttyS2&Also, if you got into rc.sysinit, I would imagine you pulled your drive. Why didn't you fix rc.sysinit.author while you were at it?

I see it's still not running.

Out of curiosity, what is this lgkahn script?

[snake98]

Thanks for you help, I got bash serial working, along with telnet again,

Lgkahn script sets a static ip in 6.2, it works great, I messed up the first time and assigned it an ip address that already exsist on the network, doah.

Thanks agiain for all your help, time to start fixing other problems :-)
like why the rc.sysinit.author is not execuing even after i chmod 755 it

[hayreass]

Attach a copy of your .author file here.

I'll bet it's a simple fix, like removing the dos line endings, or maybe your 1st line isn't #!/bin/bash

[lgkahn]

Not exactly accurate...

I wrote a script which puts ip address, gateway, etc. info into the correct location in the mfs database as if you configured the box through the ntwork menus which do not exist in 6.2.

this script is needed because putting the normal ifconfig line in rc.sysinit.author while working. brings up the interface too late in the boot cycle for MRV to work on 6.2.

thus I wrote a little tcl script to set ip info in the mfs database. It only needs to be run once.
