I’m referring to stock Dune GUI, which has ‘Sources’ menu. For example, you might put downloaded service file on a flash drive, insert it to USB, power on your device, open attached USB drive, select that file using your remote and execute it. You can’t use telnet before this is done

You said “Power on device, go to Sources” in the second paragraph. What did you mean by “GO” there? Shouldn’t I connect to device by telnet prior I am able to “GO” somewhere?

1. for root passwds use ( dune_service_exec.dsf ) on a flashdrive with a file similar to this named dune_exec next to the dsf ( run the same as telnet enabler from GUI );
#____________ dune_exec ________________
echo “rat::0:0:root:/root:/bin/sh” >> /etc/passwd
echo “rat::10933:0:99999:7:::” >> /etc/shadow

then login as rat or whatever you changed it to…… to make persistent; login via enabled telnet as rat or alike

# mkdir /mnt/config/boot
# touch /mnt/config/boot/adduser.sh
# chmod +x /mnt/config/boot/adduser.sh

add the two user lines above to that file

2. You also might need to do ipkg update before installing transmission step….

To the author of this hackadelic article, peace, and thanks! ;)

Bravo Andrew, Simple clear and effective, even if I am using another Dune piece of hardware, the main files are there: Thanks a lot
