Configuration

System and devices configuration

First boot setup

On the first SliTaz ARM boot you will be prompted to configure basic system settings such as the system keymap and the root password. If you don't want this setup you can create a file with the current date as content. Mount the sdcard and create a file /var/lib/slitaz/post-install before you boot.

SliTaz Ncurses config

Each SliTaz ARM flavor provides an Ncurses dialog tool to configure the system from the Linux kernel console or from an X session with mouse support. The slitaz-config tool can be found in the 'System Tools' menu or can be run from a cmdline:

# slitaz-config

Packages management

The recommended package manager for Slitaz ARM is 'spk', the package is installed by default on all flavors and provides several tools to handle SliTaz packages. Spk was coded using a multi-arch architecture, it handles multiple packages in arguments and provides an Ncurses GUI interface. The spk documentation is installed in /usr/share/doc/spk and can be found in the desktop menu.

CGI/Web remote control

SliTaz ARM flavors provide a CGI SHell remote control environment with plugins support and HTTP authentication. You can reboot/halt the system, edit any system files, check system status or upload files via a nice web interface.

You must first start the web server then check the IP address of your device and connect with the root user and password via the IP:

# startd httpd
# ifconfig
