Hello everybody and excuse my poor english.
I'm new here and have a lot of questions.
Hello Pedro and welcome!
In the section "get it" says..
"We offer precompiled firmware images of the LibreMesh stable release
(Dayboot Rely 17.06) with generic settings"
What are that generic settings?
The generic settings for the 17.06 release are in the lime-defaults file
in the 17.06 branch, here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/17.06/packages/lime-system/…
The best available documentation of these configuration files is in the
lime-example file, in its latest version here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/master/packages/lime-docs/f…
or, in its 17.06 version, here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/17.06/packages/lime-docs/fi…
I see three variants in the downloads, default, mini
and zero. What are
their differences?
Where can i look for that? I'm looking in
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-sdk.
For the 17.06 release we were using the lime-sdk builder (which is now
abandoned) and in there there were "flavors" defined here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-sdk/blob/master/flavors.conf
as you can see, lime_mini was without opkg package manager and lime_zero
was without web interface. These two versions were prepared for old
routers with only 4 MB of flash memory.
I want to compile from source as a starting point and
once i know how it
works, and what does each package or protocol, be able to modify it to
fit to my needs.
As the 17.06 release is very old, I suggest you to compile the
development code following the instructions on libremesh website (in the
middle of the page, the "Compiling LibreMesh from source code" section):
https://libremesh.org/development.html
in case you really want to compile 17.06 release, you can follow the
instructions here:
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages/blob/17.06/README.md
specifying the 17.06 branch in the lime-packages feed, which means to
add a ";17.06" in the line:
echo "src-git libremesh
https://github.com/libremesh/lime-packages.git;17.06" >> feeds.conf
anyway I am not sure it will work as I didn't do it since years.
I think i could contribute documenting all my
questions.
If you could improve the website with more documentation it would be
super useful!!!
I will send more questions.
Thanks in advance.
Hugs,
