Re: How to install the FreeBSD ports collection?
use -r to fetch remote packages, be sure that your internet conections works fine , and your Nas4Free is properly configured to ping / fetch internet.
example:
I do this to instal owncloud: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=32
example:
Code: Select all
pkg_add -r linux-hamachiI do this to instal owncloud: viewtopic.php?f=48&t=32
12.1.0.4 - Ingva (revision 7743) on SUPERMICRO X8SIL-F 8GB of ECC RAM, 11x3TB disk in 1 vdev = Vpool = 32TB Raw size , so 29TB usable size (I Have other NAS as Backup)

Re: How to install the FreeBSD ports collection?
Raul, thanks for the reply.
I've found a shell script named "LaSi" which installs lots of downloaders like sabnzbd, couch potato etc.
The script needs some tweaking (clear cmd fails, tries to install wget and git each time and fails etc..). But when tweaked works fine.
See: https://github.com/Mar2zz/LaSi
Do you know why my full install of Nas4Free does not have the "clear" command? What is the BSD equivelant?
By the way: congratulations with the win on Portugal!

"clear" is a command within the shell, not an external program.

Yes, but is not implemented. try to type "clear" in the shell, an error ocurred , so murat have reasen.fgrayson wrote:"clear" is a command within the shell, not an external program.
PD: Eliminate clear in the script is not extricty necesary.

Re: How to install the FreeBSD ports collection?
Hi there, I am a newbie to Nas4Free using version 9.1 wanting to run sabnzbd, i was just wondering if i need to have a "full Install" in order to install python, or cannot i not do this in 9.1?
I currently have it installed as "embedded" and ran into trouble trying to install python, it said that it could not download/install or locate 2 dependencies.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks kindly.

Re: How to install the FreeBSD ports collection?
You need full to install on your boot disk or
If your install is embeded you need to install into (inside) a jail ( jail reside on Data disk so no need space left on boot device).
Your install fail because no left space on boot device = embeded = load into RAM = Space limited
Please read post about how to install jails: http://wiki.nas4free.org/doku.php?id=do ... owto:jails
