Default How to Install Packages??

Hi!!!

I've been trying to install some IPK on my pre... I tried using WOSQI 2.96 with WebOSDoctor 1.3.5.1... but no luck... it gives me an error saying that the package is truncated, try again... (file size is over 50MB)

So now i'm trying to install from command line... but the page in webos internals says that the instructions are not longer applicable to WebOS 1.3.5.1
Tutorials webOS Installing An Ipk - WebOS Internals

But doesn't give any other options... so... does anyone of you know the current command for installing an ipk???

I saw "ipkg -o /var install PACKAGENAME".... but that was before 1.3.5.... so... now i don't know whats the current command.... maybe ipkg -o /media/cryptofs/apps install PACKAGENAME????


Thanks!!!
