cortex1-5

Update OS packages on Cortex 1-5

Upgrade OS release on Cortex 1-5 from 8.04.2 to 10.04.1

Restart each Cortex1-5

PROBLEM

the /home directory is not mounted automatically... for now, it is sufficient that one user issues the command "mount /home" after a system reboot, but we should fix this problem.

Delete user yarp and the old installation of YARP (backed up in /home/icub/svn_yarp2_nov2010_backup)

Backup old iCub installation to svn_iCub_nov2010_backup/

Reinstall YARP on Cortex 1-5, for user icub. Problem

 icub@cortex1:~$ yarp
 -bash: /home/icub/yarp2/build/bin/yarp: Permission denied

Install latest IPOPT and check it

Reinstall iCub on Cortex 1-5, for user icub

cortex6

Update OS packages on Cortex 6

Upgrade OS release on Cortex 6 from 8.04.2 to 10.04.1

Delete user yarp and the old installation of YARP (backed up in /home/icub/svn_yarp2_nov2010_backup)

Backup old iCub installation to svn_iCub_nov2010_backup/

Reinstall YARP on Cortex 6, for user icub

Install latest IPOPT and check it

Reinstall iCub on Cortex 6, for user icub

icubsrv and pc104

Update OS packages on icubsrv

Update YARP on icubsrv, under the path /exports/code-pc104 and, if you will, the local 64bits version

Update iCub on icubsrv, under the path /exports/code-pc104 and, if you will, the local 64bits version

Check that the scripts that are mounted from icubsrv to pc104 still work

Once everything builds

Check that each demo works

Update iCubLisboa01 scripts (.xml and .sh) on chico3 in a clean way (no hardcoded paths, etc.)

Commit updated scripts to iCub repository iCubLisboa01 directory

Clean up (backup) unused stuff on iCubLisboa01 directory

In main/app/pf3dTracker/conf, we should end up having two files - pf3dTracker_iCubLisboa01_left.ini and pf3dTracker_iCubLisboa01_right.ini

Note that our robot files were moved from app/iCubLisboa01 to main/app/robots/iCubLisboa01. Update the repository used by pc104 again (see Lorenzo's email from 2010-11-24)
