Pogoplug s4: Installation issues /w Mavericks

[maetschl]

Hi,

I just tried to install arch linux on my pogoplug series 4 and cant get further than 8th point on your tutorial. Formatting of the connected drive worked well. Now it says following:

/tmp # wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/mke2fs
-sh: wget: not found
/tmp # chmod +x mke2fs
chmod: mke2fs: No such file or directory
/tmp # ./mke2fs -j /dev/sda1
-sh: ./mke2fs: not found
/tmp # mkdir alarm
mkdir: can't create directory 'alarm': File exists
/tmp # mount /dev/sda1 alarm
mount: mounting /dev/sda1 on alarm failed: Invalid argument

As being somebody who isnt really into terminal language: it appears that mke2fs and wget do not work properly, right? I tried to install them via tutorials I found for osx but none of them worked in this special case. When I try wget without being logged in to pogoplug, for example to download itunes, the command works.

Anybody an idea?

1) wget failed (because it could not find it in path)
2) wget was downloading mke2fs
3) mke2fs thus, obviously doesn't exist and "fails"

Thanks for your reply. How can I add wget to the path?

[WarheadsSE]

Assuming it is present anywhere in the system, that'd be step one: finding it.

First off, try just adding "busybox " in front of wget. (note space)

Then I get this:

/tmp # busybox wget
BusyBox v1.16.1 (2011-09-28 14:52:05 PDT) multi-call binary.

Usage: wget [-csq] [-O file] [-Y on/off] [-P DIR] [-U agent] url

/tmp #

and with complete command following this:

/tmp # busybox wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/mke2fs
