The tto_vm_parent spanned zip files appear to have a problem. The tto_vm_child unzips without any problems, but after downloading all the tto_vm_parent files into a common directory and then issuing unzip against tto_vm_parent_(v2.00).zip, Winzip 8.1 rejects the extract request with "unknown compression method" for all of the files listed in the zip file.

Ditto if I try to use 7zip, Izarc, and winrar.

Please advise.

They could have been corrupted during download, did your MD5 sums match?

Please see the download hints just added to this wiki page. I agree with Bernie, always double-check the files against the .md5 signature files. Also, you may want to try a later version of WinZip.

tto_vm_child_image_(v2.10).zip (43MB) link is bad or file is corrupted. It only downloads a 42.7KB file instead of a 43MB file.

All files within the zip archive have zero sizes.

Please confirm this bug or help fix it.

Thanks

Hello Experts,

Need help!

I have been struggling with the VMPlayer 3.1 for 2 days now trying to get the nfs running. I was able to run the browser successfully in NAT mode using TI proxy.

However, I am not able to ping to/fro the Virtual Ubuntu machine(in bridged mode) to the board or to the Host Windows.

Any clues? Please let me know.

My colleague suggested it may not work at all. ??? So he suggested me to avoid it. He had faced issues with NFS before with VM ware.

Any contact expert person I can call ?

Greatly appreciate any feedback.

Best Regards, Feroz

First of all, even though I "watch" this page, it doesn't appear I get emails when comments are posted. If you don't get a quick response, you may want to post your questions in the forums.

Xsyourpal: I just downloaded the "child" image as well as its associated MD5 signature file. It downloaded OK for me.

Feroz: It's hard for me to say what you're running into. I've succefully connected using the full VMware workstation and have seen others do it with the Player. There are enough potential problems that it's hard to guess what you're running into. For example, if you are connecting to a board via wired Ethernet, but you also have wireless turned-on, this can cause a problem.

Another potential problem we found with Ubuntu was with copying VMware images for the AM3517 workshop; we were getting an error which read "SIOCSIFADDR No such device eth0…". If this is what you're seeing, please refer to the lab setup instructions (on the wiki) for the AM3517 One-Day Workshop.

I'm not sure who the "experts" are for this, but the forum will have a bigger audience than this wiki page.

Note that the compression on the PPT 2.10 zip file uses a higher form of compression that does not work out of the box with Windows. It does work with WinZip 10 or greater.

I noticed the tto_vm_parent_(3.03).z01 is bad. the link looks correct but it downloads as a .zip which overwrites the real .zip if downloaded to the same folder.

This appears to be a side-affect of Windows, Explorer, or the wiki. If you notice it trying to rename any of the .z0x files, please make sure you specify the name as shown in the wiki page. I've verified that the actual filenames are correct."

The link to "Lab Setup Instructions v3.08a (pdf file) under the Sitara/Integra/..." section is broken.

I took the time to dowload all the files and as Sgspecker suggests above just changed the filename for tto_vm_parent_(v3.03).z01 but that still doesn't work. The file needs to be reposted. And the link to the Setup instructions is broken as well.

Did you use the latest version of WinZip? We needed to shrink the size of the download to make it fit under a system limit.
