Goflex Net Install instructions missing a step

Postby Socaltom » Sat Aug 23, 2014 11:56 pm

The goflex net install instructions are missing a step.
After creating and mounting the /tmp/alarm directory
the instructions don't cd to /tmp/alarm
so when you download the filesystem it uses up all the freespace in /tmp.
In my case, I recongized the issue and moved to /tmp/alarm, however I failed to delete the incomplete tar file.

This created a situation where the uboot install failed because the space was full.
I was able to address this by deleting the filesystem.tar.gz file in /tmp, and rerunning the uboot installer.
but it would probably be a good idea to add the step to the instrucitons.
Thanks

Would be a good idea to read and follow the instructions:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 't')ar -zxvf ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz -C alarm
