Stardom NAS - gentoo

don't like the Gemini Linux 2.6.15 that come with STARDOM-NAS. enable the telnet by using the non-documented telnet.cgi

http://ip/cgi/telnet/telnet.cgi

Now can telnet into the box. Then find the good documents http://nas-2000.org/mwiki/index.php?title=HowTo_Compile_Programs_on_the_NAS

The document need some update basically the below won't work. Just ignore it.
ln -s usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/arm/ etc/make.profile

Also need to create etc/resolv.conf. Also the tar -xjvpf ../stage3-armv4l-2005.1.tar.bz2 inside the NAS not working quite well. So using the NFS mount to the NAS and bzip2 -dc stage3-armv4l-2005.1.tar.bz2 | tar xvf - from the nfs client that come with Linux/MacOS.

There are still some error regarding /dev/??? during tar bunzip2 which can be ignored.

Still running gentoo

emerge --sync

If result is good, will check in to http://osstools.svn.sourceforge.net
