I edited the article to include a link to info re: getting the bash correct: "Only the default shell (/bin/ash) will work for ssh. To change your shell to bash (located in /opt/bin/bash after the install), you will have to [http://www.webos-internals.org/wiki/Setup_Bash create] an /etc/shells file, and add the following lines:" [[User:superduperpre|superduperpre]]<br />

== Uninstallation before update requirements? ==<br />
<br />
I do not see how to uninstall. It appears to me that the Optware instalation should be safe to leave installed as implied by the "we use /opt so as not to be overwritten by an update" statement. Are the Quilt installation steps mentioned here also safe to leave applied during a WebOS update? It does sound like patches and tweaks installed by quilt should be removed prior to an update. If the command `cd / ; quilt applied` found at [[Applying_Patches#Listing_Applied_Patches]] reports that no patches are applied is it safe for an update?<br />
<br />
So, If I am correct in my assumptions above then everything found in /opt is safe to leave in place during an update. But perhaps things outside that folder are not? For example I've configured dyndns per [http://palmpre-hacks.com/palm-pre-hacks/how-to-ssh-into-your-palm-pre/] which required a new boot script named ''/etc/ppp/ip-up.d/09update-ddns'', would this cause problems. Similarly per [http://palmpre-hacks.com/palm-pre-hacks/how-to-set-up-google-gps-tracking-on-your-palm-pre/] installing a lighttp service requires the addition of a ''/etc/event.d/optware-lighttpd'' script, would this also cause WebOS update problems?<br />
<br />
Thank you for any insights you might have, delaying my 1.2 update till I feel more confident... --[[User:Dolio|Dolio]] 06:49, 1 October 2009 (UTC)</div>Alansnedhttp://wiki.webos-internals.org/index.php?title=Talk:Next_steps&diff=6096Talk:Next steps2009-10-02T18:25:39Z<p>Alansned: </p>
