"No space left on device" during install

[jdholbrook33]

Following the instructions for my device, Pogoplug E02, I get to the point

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
Download and install Arch Linux ARM:
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/bsdtar
chmod +x bsdtar
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz
./bsdtar -xpf ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz -C alarm
sync
umount alarm ')

While I am getting the tarball it stops at 66% with the error "No space left on device".
I'm sure it's not my USB as I've tried three different sizes 4gb, 16gb and finally a 128gb SSD via usb.

Any help??

Thanks

I hate getting old!

Brain works a little slower.. well more than a little at times!!

Figured I should be expanding this tarball to the USB so I moved over to /alarm, wget the tar and expanding now.

Maybe this will let me proceed?

Thanks

If you follow the PogoPlug V2 install instructions exactly as listed BUT you don't have enough space on /tmp, then yes you will get an error message when you try to download the tarball. For step 6 in the instructions, try this slight modification.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'cd /tmp/alarm
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/bsdtar
chmod +x bsdtar
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz
./bsdtar -xvpf ArchLinuxARM-kirkwood-latest.tar.gz
rm bsdtar ArchLinuxARM*
sync
cd /tmp
umount alarm')

Thank you.

I am up and running and all seems great.
However, I'm having a hard time getting my IP to be static.

I've read through netctl and created my own profile but it fails when I do systemctl start my_config or netctl start my_config.

I remember long ago using another file to configure network interfaces.

Should I start another thread??

Thanks

My apologies.
I come on here and in my first post I break the cardinal rule.

USE THE SEARCH

My searchfu has been low lately.

Found all the answers to my questions and now have static IP!

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
ls /etc/systemd/system/multi-user.target.wants/net*
')

showed me it was eth0.service
Edited eth0 with copy paste from /etc/netctl/examples/ethernet-static plus my network info.
saved and rebooted
Walla.. Static IP
