I-Opener Lives!
March 3rd, 2002
Well, I finally have the I-Opener running Gentoo Linux. It turned out that I couldn’t install Jailbait on the SanDisk unless I modified the kernel that came with Slackware, which I tried to do, but the new kernel wouldn’t boot. So I ended up just pulling the drive again, hooking it up to my main PC, and installing the stage3 Gentoo tarball from Knoppix. It worked out pretty well, but now the poor I-Opener has to upgrade all the packages that are installed, which is going to take a while. In the mean time, I’m using it as a spare terminal to IRC from while I play Counter-Strike.
