Can minicom but can't do the auto

Post by Pieterraxis »

Hi,

Changing cables for a few days now and can't get auto root to work. BUT i can get in with a terminal screen. I have the r8 version.

The other cables beside the rx, tx and gnd aren't needed for a r8 right? When i disconnect the other jtag cables it won't work either.

I'm using a raspberry pi 2b.

This is a strange situation isn't it?

did you read the readme correctly? I think you forgot to enable serial and disable terminal on serial

Wtf is Toon running on?

I started a ping and i'm in an infinite loop now.

Non of these commands land: Q, q, escape, shift escape, ctrl shift backspace and, ctrl s, ctrl z of course ctr c

I'm scared to reboot now i'm manually rooting.

in the 'safe' mode or single mode you don't have Getty running and therefore missing commands like ctrl-c

Nu start ik toon en kom ik in # maar zelfs het commando get werkt niet. Zit ik nu weer in een bananen shell dan?

eneco-001-095676:~# get http://files.domoticaforum.eu/uploads/T ... .0_qb2.ipk
-sh: get: not found

Code: Select all

INIT: Entering runlevel: 5
Starting syslogd/klogd: done
HCBv2 apps started via runlevels, performing 'addstartables && reload && init 5 or 5'.
HCBv2 adding: netcon comm eventmgr pwrusage scsync smartplug thermstat usermsg bxtproxy co.
HCBv2 startables unchanged, not writing /etc/inittab.

Also, i have a feeling i'm not root while beeing #.

This is what a LS shows. Shouldn't it be more?

eneco-001-095676:~# ls
backup_files iptables.save update-rooted.sh
iptables.backup passwd.backup update_rooted.sh
eneco-001-095676:~#


Looks like i'm not owning the toon

Ladies and Gents,

Thanks, it worked.

A Tip for you admins to do for the rest of the globe is to make a pretty manual in Html here on the forum. Had to switch tabs between martin jacobs github, ehaco, bor, einstein and your copied 'code' text which i pasted in ms word.

I did take i peep in the store and i saw pihole stats... You adventurous adventurer ;-)

What is wrong with the PDF manual in viewtopic.php?f=100&t=11235#p82533 ?
It states, only try manual root if you are brave. Just use the toonrooter if otherwise.

ahhhh

Code: Select all

however this manual is a bit outdated. If you follow the manual don’t follow it without thinking and knowing what you are doing
apparently i knew what i was doing.
