Importing Outernet Archive

The installer at https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Outernet-Project/orx-install/master/raspbian/install.sh worked for me with a Raspberry Pi Model B and Raspbian 2014-09-09. Although, it could be a bit more verbose.

I couldn’t find ANY instructions on importing content from archive.outnet.is. So, here’s what worked for me:

connect to the Rasberry Pi with ssh or login on the console, then:

sudo /bin/bash
cd /var/spool/downloads
wget -r http://archive.outernet.is/
mv archive.outernet.is/* .
shutdown -r now

wget shouldn’t be run as root. But, it worked.

“service librarian restart” sorta worked. I was able to access the web interface. But, I got repeated “unable to bind to port” error messages on my terminal. “shutdown -r now” worked with no error messages.

Oops. This process is better explained here: We Moved!
