Sorry for the long wait.
You can download the precompiled package here. Use at your own risk.
It contains the mono binary and the full .net library, so you need to extend your root partition with a microsd card.

Could someone check if the package will install with opkg this time? Thanks.
I will update this thread in a while. Some things has been changed.
I could not cross compile the recent version of mono. Will see if I will be more successfull at the end of this week.
Wow, sorry I forgot to add a package. That took me a time to notice.
Do people still have problems compiling mono for the Omega? I will try again this weekend and update the tutorial. Please remind me again. :).
You can ignore the STAGING_DIR. If you do all the things written in my instructions, then you have a fully working mono package :).
I see that the precompiled package is not there anymore. Will create one somewhere this weekend.
Also if USB flash drive is not working, try to create a partition of 1GB on the USB drive and format it as VFAT. And then try again.
@V_Baczynski Use the latest version from here: http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images.
sysupgrade -n http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images/omega2p-v0.1.10-b160.bin
@Martin-Frederiksen Glad that it worked! Will have to take a look at the ipk file. Shame that opkg doesn't work.
@the-mask Because LEDE has it documented. Because the Omega uses LEDE:
https://lede-project.org/docs/user-guide/ssh_configuration
@Martin-Frederiksen Yeah I also had this problem with the .ipk file. You can extract the ipk and then the data.tar.gz file and copy all the contents of data.tar.gz to "/". That precompiled mono package you mentioned is old. Will compile a newer version for you. ;). Maybe that one will work with opkg.
UPDATE: here you go:
http://51.255.195.37/mono-runtime_5.0-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
Small note: I could not check which version this one is. I compiled the latest mono source and named it 5.0. You can check mono --version which version it really is.
So if opkg doesn't work then extract the files and copy those to root:
tar xf mono-runtime_5.0-1_mipsel_24kc.ipk
tar xf data.tar.gz
cp -R ./bin ./lib /
@Michael-Lustig Mh it looks clean. Like @György-Farkas said, maybe you have accidentally triggered a reset.
It's true that halt doesn't work, even with the -f option. But you don't need it. I think the problem is that your Omega is using tmpfs storage instead of flash storage on the device. I think a reset will fix this issue.
Can you show the output of the command:
df -h
Oh yeah, you also need the library itself. I tried to cross compile it myself with my own aproach.
You need to cross compile libugpio and copy the library to staging_dir/target-mipsel_24kc_musl/usr/lib/
@Bjorn-Pehrson Rename it to ugpio-version.h
No like I said, you need the header. Copy ugpio.h to staging_dir/target-mipsel_24kc_musl/usr/include/
@Stephen-Wright said in From "Cross-Compiling for the Omega" I cannot successfully build the gpioRead example:
ugpio
I think you need libugpio headers https://github.com/mhei/libugpio. Copy those to staging_dir/target-mipsel_24kc_musl/usr/include/ and then compile.
Updated thread with timezone fix.
See: https://wiki.onion.io/Tutorials/Using-USB-Storage-as-Rootfs. Replace sda1 with mmcblk0p1
Had that problem too. Shows only directory listing. Just upgrade to newest image version. If that doesn't work then do a factory reset when you have upgraded to newest version. That will work.
To upgrade
wget http://repo.onion.io/omega2/images/omega2p-v0.1.9-b159.bin
Then
sysupgrade -n omega2p-v0.1.9-b159.bin
@Ken-Conrad said in C# wrapper:
@James-Thomas Will Cross compiling Mono for Omega2 work for you?
Thanks for the reference. Yeah programming C# with .NET on the Omega works great! I ran some console programs and it works just fine.
