toltec: Unable to install from bootstrap script (package list fails to download from entware)

Hello lovely people-

Many apologies if this has already been posted, but I couldn’t find it.

I’m trying to install on my RM2 for the first time, using the bootstrap script, RM version 2.6.2.75. Here’s the output:

Hi @briankaemingk. Based on the output you provided, I think you’re seeing a separate issue. It appears that you’re using the testing branch, whose directory layout has recently been changed (see #310). To fix your issue, you have two choices:

Revert back to the stable branch, which still has the old repository layout. When we move the new layout to the stable branch, it will have an automatic transition mechanism in place so you won’t have to edit your configuration again. In general, the testing branch is only intended for devs to test packages and features more thoroughly before they land in stable. So if you wish to avoid similar issues in the future, I would advise moving back to the stable branch (at the cost of having slightly older packages). To do this change, you need to edit /opt/etc/opkg.conf on your device, replace each occurrence of testing with stable, then run opkg update && opkg upgrade.
Update your configuration for the new repository layout in testing. To do this, you need to download the updated bootstrap script (not the one hosted at https://toltec-dev.org/bootstrap) and run it on your device with bash bootstrap. The script will detect your existing install and automatically update its configuration.

All of this does not apply to @IvoryTinplate since their logs show that they’re using the stable branch.
