Hi,
PirateBox has a few legacy things, which we we are pulling with us through the different releases. One of these things are the FAT32 limitation, which is based on fact that FAT32 has the best compatibility across the different OS (mac, windows, linux).
The customization for LibraryBox (USB config files) can be used on PirateBox as well, it is just not preinstalled (and no special PirateBox version). (Librarybox and PirateBox are share alot of the codebase).
You landing page looks nice.
Any help is appreciated. If you like to support development, have a look at the issues for 1.2 on github and at the Development forum. We are running a automatic build for OpenWrt/LEDE based Piratebox every 2 days and an rebuild of the RPi images on request.
I also implemented a sort of captive portal hack, which should present a welcome page and then work like a normal PirateBox (without Firewall restrictions or something else).
I also want to move the shoutbox from python scripts over to a set of PHP scripts... to lower the amount of python code to 0% (for reducing the needed script languages on the devices).
best regards Matthias
Yes, any constructive feedback is appreciated! (This feedback is constructive.)Quote
The only reason why I asked because I will be helping other deploy these MR3020s, I'm fine hacking around the shell, but I guess I didn't understand how on boot, it ties all the files together.
