Debian, Ubuntu & Co. on My Passport Wireless PRO

Pal, at least you can share some detailed info from DM…

Please share some more about this. I want to use my MPW Pro as a Portable mini PC. Just for fun.

Kuruptor,

Did you ever get around to documenting any of this? I’m coming to this late but am very interested.

Here’s some info I found on custom fw: GitHub - sgnh/my-passport-wireless-pro-custom-fw: Custom firmware for Western Digital My Passport Wireless Pro

HI Tfl, thanks for that but it looks like a way to update the firmware on the passport rather than a way to run a full Debian build.

Hi DeKu,

I would like to know the details of how you did this. I am at the start of this journey that took you four months to complete and could use a roadmap.

Kind Regards,
Andre

Man, you are my hero!
Could you, please, post the way you have done this and/or just your re-compiled files, if you are too busy with a list of steps taken? I am really excited about this option, as I have hit the limitations of my 4GB drive right at the day of the purchase…
Thank you very much!
