Hi, I am running 378.52_2 on a RT-AC68U. I am trying to install entware through the entware-setup.sh script, but unsuccessfully (output below). I have a ext3 partition on my external drive that is correctly detected, but I can't seem to get entware to work...

Thanks for any insight.

Code:
admin@RT-AC68U:/tmp/home/root# entware-setup.sh
Info:  This script will guide you through the Entware-Arm installation.
Info:  Script modifies only "entware.arm" folder on the chosen drive,
Info:  no other data will be touched. Existing installation will be
Info:  replaced with this one. Also some start scripts will be installed,
Info:  the old ones will be saved on partition where Entware is installed
Info:  like /tmp/mnt/sda1/jffs_scripts_backup.tgz

Info:  Looking for available partitions...
[1] --> /tmp/mnt/sda2

When asked for a partition number, you're expected to enter one (1 in your case).

Make sure you're not using Download Master or Optware, because it's cannot be used at the same time as Entware.

If you have any asusware directory on your USB disk then remove it, reboot, and try again.
 
Thanks again. It worked by installing Download Master and removing it and then launch the entware script again. Thanks so much for your help!

Can we have Download Master (and Aicloud) and entware together?

Isn't that what the text you quoted answered?

Well, I thought maybe there is Download Master under entware.... Isn't it possible?
Why do we have to install optware to make Download Master work?

Download Master is Asus's own package, which contains the clients (transmission, amule, etc...) along with their custom web interface.. They need some additional packages to provide libraries. For this, they use the Optware packages.

Entware is not compatible because its support packages are of a different version, and Download Master was built by Asus specifically for the package versions used by Optware. That's why you can't mix the two of them.

It's strongly recommended to use Entware with the Entware transmission package rather than Asus's all-in-one Download Master. The Entware package aren't as tightly integrated into the webui, but they will be far more up-to-date.

Thank you for so complete answer!
What about Aicloud, doesn't it need optware?

No, AiCloud is entirely built into the firmware, with no need for any external add-ons.
 
Is samba also built in?

Everything is built in. Download Master is the only feature that gets downloaded and installed on-demand.
