amtm amtm - the Asuswrt-Merlin Terminal Menu

L&LD is right on!

You only just noticed?

 

[L&LD]

Wow, just found out in USB 2.0 mode, both USB 2.0 and 3.0 ports working, however in USB 3.0 mode, only the USB 2.0 port working!.

L&LD is right on!

Yes, I have seen that too. It seems to be dependant on the USB 3.0 drive used, but I did not do further testing after I saw negligible differences in everyday use of amtm + scripts.

Yes, what to do? I'm a slow learner!

@thelonelycoder is there any update about Fresh QoS? [emoji4]

@thelonelycoder stated he was ready whenever @FreshJR was. I'd imagine that @FreshJR is taking a much needed break before tackling this project.

Thanks for the update. I'm anxious to start using it through amtm (didn't make use of it, prefered waiting to be added to amtm)

I'm aware that my requirement(s) to include FreshJR in amtm demand a substantial rewrite of the code.
It may never be done if the author deems it impossible or not worth his time.

@thelonelycoder - you may want to clarify that menu option 8 'ntpMerlin NTP Daemon' is not available on MIPS powered devices.

That check should be done by @Jack Yaz in ntpMerlin, not in amtm.

I've noticed two "anomalies" with fd).

First, when using John's fork and a device that only contains NTFS partitions the device isn't displayed as an option to format. This is because the driver used in John's fork is ufsd and not ntfs or tntfs.

Second, when the script tries to check the maximum disk size the test generates a syntax error when used on GPT disks:

 Select device [1-2 e=Exit] + read -r device
2
+ break
+ eval mtddev=$mounts2
+ mtddev=/tmp/mnt/sdb3
+ df /tmp/mnt/sdb3
+ xargs
+ awk {print $8}
+ devtf=/dev/sdb3
+ fdisk -l
+ grep -w /dev/sdb
+ awk {print $5}
+ devtfsize=28.9G
+ [ 28.9G ]
+ [ 28.9G -gt 2000000000000 ]
[: 28.9G: bad number
+ print_end_line

This is because the output format of fdisk is slightly different for GPT disks. I suggest you grep the contents of /proc/partitions instead which returns the size in KiB (not blocks as the header suggests ). Alternatively you could use /sys/block/<device>/size which returns the size in blocks (you'd also have to detect the block size).

Thanks for reporting and the very welcome suggestions how to correct it. I'll get to is as soon as time allows.

.....

Its on the todo list. I like to push large updates. No need for sarcastic jabs.

Initially it was the only thing on the list. Then next day a bug report of a glitched state && few feature requests creeped in.

Also means that I was at a loss for words

That link isn't working.

Ellipsis
An ellipsis is a series of dots that usually indicates an intentional omission of a word, sentence, or whole section from a text without altering its original meaning.

The first lliine is what I meant:
No results found for ......

As for the loss of words, my comment is not meant to be disrespectful.

Is ntpd not available in the backports repo?

Is ntpd not available in the backports repo?

It is; but the OP in the 'ntpMerlin - Installer for kvic NTP Daemon' thread states:

Supported Models

All modes supported by Asuswrt-Merlin. Models confirmed to work are below:

• RT-AC66U_B1
• RT-AC68U
• RT-AC86U
• RT-AC88U
• RT-AX88U

Ok, that list is based on user reports (and out of date as other models have been tested and confirmed working)

If it works on your MIPS router then great - it's not listed currently as I have no way of testing it.

Maybe this should be in the NTP daemon thread, I'm running on a RT-AC66u with John's fork (latest version):

I chose menu option 8

cp: can't stat '/www/require/modules/menuTree.js': No such file or directory
sed: /tmp/menuTree.js: No such file or directory
cp: can't stat '/tmp/menuTree.js': No such file or directory
mount: mounting /jffs/scripts/custom_menuTree.js on /www/require/modules/menuTree.js failed: No such file or directory
​

This is where kvic's Step 5 instructions forked depending upon firmware version (FW version <= 380.67)
