[ViX_Misc] Picons

[Lither]

I have installed Ocram picons via IPK file and all the picons are stored in box internal memory, I tried to drag and drop the folder to media/usb in FileZilla but doesn't seem to move?

How do I move the picons folder to my USB?

How is your USB stick formatted? If it's FAT32, then you can't drag Ocram's picons folder to it. Well you can, but only the sub folders containing the .png files. The main folder is a collection of symbolic links which won't work on FAT32. I have a copy of my picons folder from flash stored on my hard disk, but it's ext4, not FAT32.

My USB stick is ext4 format

telnet into your box
cd /
cp -r picon/ /media/usb/
and then if you want to remove the original directory
rm -rf /picon

Basically the same as what I said, except you are forgetting 1 thing "-P, --no-dereference", so that the actaul link gets copied and not the linked image.

You can also do:

mkdir /media/usb/picon
cp /picon/1_0* /media/usb/picon

This should copy only the symbolic links, but not the link itself, instead it follows the link and copies the image, this will take up more space.

But wouldn't it be easier, since the OP seems to have absolutely no idea how to execute the most basic linux commands, to just download the 7z archives and copy to usb with either filezilla or directly on the PC...

Hi! I am trying to do somrthing similar. I have installed winscp. When i connect to the box do I then open a terminal then enter the commands above?
Do I type in mkdir /media/usb/picon first hit enter and then type in cp /picon/1_0* /media/usb/picon again hit enter and I'm good to go or is there more to it than that?
