Hi All :)
I just got amazed by the beauty of the new Slitaz release 4! Congratulations! :)
So I want to make it fully compliant with latest version of aircrack-ng.. ;) from the Slitaz side its needed the "Advanced RTC" module (not genrtc) +plus+ the latest patched compat-wireless.
So, my questions are two:

1) Slitaz 4 Core is shipped only with genrtc, and the Advanced RTC is not in the downloadable package list.. how can I install "Advanced RTC" module on Slitaz 4 Core?

2) I managed to install the latest patched compat-wireless (compat-wireless-3.5-rc2-1), but when I reboot, the patched modules get lost.. from google, I figured out how to make these permanent: backup elsewhere the new modules installed by compat-wireless "make install", and after reboot just overwrite with these the kernel ones.. in details "make install" installs the new following module files:
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/net/mac80211/mac80211.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8187/rtl8187.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/drivers/net/wireless/rtl818x/rtl8180/rtl8180.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/drivers/misc/eeprom/eeprom_93cx6.ko.gz
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/compat/sch_fq_codel.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/compat/sch_codel.ko
/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/updates/compat/compat.ko

which I backup and after reboot copy into /lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/<net-wireless-lalala>
Unfortunately it doesnt work.. after that, modprobe returns this error:
"modprobe: can't load module cfg80211 (/lib/modules/2.6.37-slitaz/kernel/net/wireless/cfg80211.ko.gz): unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter"

What Im missing? maybe more other files to backup/restore?

Thanks for your attention :)

.. :) ok, a deeper google search allowed me to solve the problem #2: also modules.dep must be copied.

But my problem #1, RTC, is still open:
root@slitaz:~# gzip -cd /proc/config.gz | grep RTC
CONFIG_RTC=m
CONFIG_GEN_RTC=m
# CONFIG_GEN_RTC_X is not set
CONFIG_SND_RTCTIMER=m
CONFIG_SND_SEQ_RTCTIMER_DEFAULT=y
# CONFIG_RTC_CLASS is not set

looks CONFIG_RTC=m , but /proc/sys/dev/rtc/ does not exists..
also, I can not execute "echo 1024 > /proc/sys/dev/rtc/max-user-freq" because /proc/sys/dev is read-only.. how can I write that file max-user-freq?
(fyi,I receive error ioctl(RTC_IRQP_SET) from aireplay-ng)

can anybody help? :)
Thanks

..(fyi,in aireplay-ng: /dev/rtc exists and can be open ro, but ioctl(dev.fd_rtc,RTC_IRQP_SET,8192)<0 ) ..

I already solved myself, thanks anyway.. ;)
the solution was extremely simple, before run aircrack, just "modprobe rtc".. :D

@Trixar_za, fyi, the aircrack package provided by Slitaz is dramatically outdated, its needed to recompile it from the last source, I can help you in this if you need ;)
@travalon, what do you mean? do you mean the slitaz cooking from aircrack site? its even more outdated, stuck on version 1.0 .. unusable ;)

nikitan: From what I understand, another aircrack-ng version will be made using the latest SliTaz 4.0 or cooking iso, which will mean the package will also be updated soon.

Hi Trixar_za :) sorry, maybe I didnt explain properly.. even if the aircrack-ng main page proposes outdated code, the project is indeed very alive and kicking, the bleeding-edge new code is always available from their public repository (for who read the wiki.. :) In my personal opinion, no new "official" Slitaz-Aircrack will be released, as they dont seem very interested (last Slitaz-aircrack releases from 2009.. ;) Im doing just a "private" cooking for myself, I successfully compiled the last binaries for Slitaz 4, tested working, so I was just wondering if someone were interested-thats all :)

@nikitan,
Sounds good.

I am not an expert but I think you could make a "pizza" http://pizza.slitaz.org/.

What about explaining your project on the mailing list? I guess help is always well appreciated and welcome.

Cheers.

:) Sure totoetsasoeur, my project is as simple as its predecessor: an ultralight portable wireless audit/troubleshoot tool :) it was simple, the most was already done because of the new modular Slitaz structure ;) I just compiled the aircrack binaries, added few more packages (Wireshark, Macchanger, Mdk3, patched drivers for my rtl8187..) and finish :) the power of Slitaz 4 Core + Aircrack-ng in 45 MBytes.. ;)
