No warranties.

INSTALLATION:

These instructions require you to know where your CF interface shows up in your device
table.  I put /dev/sdX to prevent people from copy-and-pasting the scripts and wiping 
out existing SCSI HD partitions.  Use "dmesg" to see where your shows up and substitute 
sdX with the APPROPRIATE device name.

I  Flash Card

You must have a CF card at least 128M with 1 partition formatted as EXT3.
E.g.:  If your USB CF interface shows up as /dev/sdX:

-  Insert CF card
# fdisk /dev/sdX
	d)elete any partitions
      	c)reate new partition using whole card
      	w)rite partiton

# mke2fs -m 2 -j /dev/sdX1


II  Mount flash card somewhere on system.  We'll use /mnt/flash.  
    (mkdir /mnt/flash  if necessary, or substitute another mount point.)

# mount /dev/sdX1 /mnt/flash


III Extract c1010 distribution into newly formatted CF card:
    (Subtitute /PATH/TO for the directory where you put these files.)

# cd /mnt/flash
# tar -xvpf /PATH/TO/Slackware-c1010-dist.tar.bz2
# sync


IV  Install LILO boot loader onto the MBR of the card.
   (Requires your system to have lilo on it.  Substitute device and mount point
    from above steps.)

# lilo -r /mnt/flash -b /dev/sdX

  Note:  This will generate warnings.  As long as you see the message
  "Added Linux-c1010 *" then you're in good shape.


V  Unmount flash disk and install into the C1010.

# umount /mnt/flash


------

That's it!  If the above steps went well, you should have a working Contivity 1010 
running Slackware Linux 12.0 with iptables support, OpenVPN, and SSH. 

The default setup will request DHCP info from LAN0 and serve DHCP addresses for the
192.168.35.0/24 network on LAN1.  It will also operate as a proxy DNS server and
a NAT router for any hosts on LAN1.

- Console port: 9600,n,8,1

- default root password:  c1010

- ssh access is only enabled on LAN1 (192.168.35.1) by default.

- / is Read-Only, with /tmp, /var, &etc mapped to a 32MB ramdisk

- run "readwrite.sh" after login in to make / read-write for customization, &etc.

Have fun!
