I'm assuming there are more programs missing, but I feel a bit overwhelmed here. Never had to go through anything like this to install stuff in the past (former windows slave) haha. Is there a remedy?
You install gcc with PPM? Full install (ah, usb install)? I'm not sure offhand if you'd be able to load this devx_slacko_5.3.3.sfs via usb.. I don't have one set atm.. Is there an ldconfig file onboard? It's supplied with the libc-bin pkg..
Yes, I used the PPM to install gcc. Any other version I found outside of PPM took "huge" space on my USB, and seemed to need a c compiler to be installed...
I can't seem to find any idconfig file. Not through the find function anyways.
and I am able to download devx_slacko_5.3.3.sfs, but some files are red with an exclamation mark in a triangle.
aaahhh the relief =P I tried the binary and it worked nicely after having installed the deps I lacked. Thank you so much! It's good to see that people online can still be helpful to complete strangers.
One last little thing though. Kismet (and another program a while back I think) complained about being run as root. How do I alter that and does it make any difference?
Helpful in part because you stuck with it and reciprocated with feedback.
Beyond what's covered in sections 3, 4, 8'n 17, and because Pup has at best, pseudo multi-user functionality.. programs requiring such may or may not work properly. What I can say is if you experience trouble running as root aboard Pup, see this post/thread and adjust accordingly. Other programs may have their own workarounds..
As far as the risk of running Kismet as root, I'd prefer my usb install- saved to file!
