**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Dec 10 02:59:57 2005 Dec 10 06:36:52 jacques: i see, i'm in san antonio, so the austin event mail struck my interest Dec 10 08:27:13 <[g2]> morfic ping Dec 10 08:29:34 pong Dec 10 08:29:42 <[g2]> morfic I boot directly to the USB with the Loft Dec 10 08:29:57 <[g2]> you just need to modify your kernel parameters Dec 10 08:30:19 anything aside root= and rootfs= ? Dec 10 08:30:23 <[g2]> root=/dev/sda1 rootfstype=ext2|ext3 rootdelay=12 Dec 10 08:30:27 <[g2]> and noirqdebug Dec 10 08:30:42 <[g2]> the rootdelay is quite important Dec 10 08:30:57 <[g2]> also you'll need to have all the drivers built into the kernel Dec 10 08:32:01 got all that, only ext3 though, rootdelay=10, they are all built in usb, ehci, usbmasstorage, ext3, scsi disk (even sg although i dont think it applies to disk) Dec 10 08:32:35 <[g2]> you need sd_mod and jbd Dec 10 08:33:24 what drives me nuts is that i wont have funds for $15 usb phone data cable to have a serial console, if i saw what it fails with i might not need to ask , checking on those two, sec Dec 10 08:34:52 [g2]: most importantly i don't need anything special if i build the kernel with ARCH And CROSS_COMPILE= when i upslug2 -k that kernel, right? Dec 10 08:36:10 sd_mod is CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD=y Dec 10 08:36:50 [g2]: could a delay of 10 just still be too short? Dec 10 08:37:03 <[g2]> 10 is near the edge Dec 10 08:37:18 <[g2]> I think it depends a little on the device Dec 10 08:37:39 oh that would be fun if i did miss succes by 2 seconds :) Dec 10 08:37:46 <[g2]> usbsticks don't have spin up Dec 10 08:38:03 it is a stick, so i figured 10 secs is enough Dec 10 08:38:14 a pretty quick stick too Dec 10 08:38:23 <[g2]> I'd guess it's the jbd or the other scsi module Dec 10 08:38:26 <[g2]> there are two Dec 10 08:40:06 <[g2]> which compiler and what patchsets are you using ? Dec 10 08:52:54 3.4.4 and the one in nslu2-kernel/2.6.14 Dec 10 08:53:26 jbd is included too btw Dec 10 08:59:58 [g2]: is there another place to get the sets from? Dec 10 09:01:26 <[g2]> morfic are you using crosstool or running the compiler that OE build ? Dec 10 09:01:29 <[g2]> built Dec 10 09:02:26 crossdev built cross compiler, used that before to built for ppc on x86 Dec 10 09:03:18 <[g2]> that works pretty well, but I got to a point where the crosstool compile wouldn't build the vl4 drivers, but the OE one did Dec 10 09:03:26 <[g2]> just FYI Dec 10 09:03:37 <[g2]> I didn't identify the patchset differences Dec 10 09:03:44 but there the compile failed, or it built a bad module? Dec 10 09:03:47 <[g2]> or compilation options Dec 10 09:03:59 <[g2]> compile failed Dec 10 09:04:11 ok, good, easy enough sign :) Dec 10 09:05:35 mind sharing your .config so i can diff it against mine? and are you using the same patches from HEAD ./openembedded/packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6.14 ? Dec 10 09:06:02 <[g2]> I've got a 2.6.14.3 version Dec 10 09:06:54 yes, iirc the dir is 2.6.14, where did you get yours from? Dec 10 09:14:40 [g2]: ~/HeadSlug/openembedded/packages/linux/nslu2-kernel/2.6.14 $ <-- those are the 2.6.14.3 i use Dec 10 09:34:33 <[g2]> morfic msg me your e-mail and I can e-mail you a .config Dec 10 09:34:54 <[g2]> or hold on a moment Dec 10 09:35:11 <[g2]> I'll just post one on giantshoulderinc Dec 10 09:52:44 <[g2]> morfic see http://www.giantshoulderinc/loft.config Dec 10 09:53:09 <[g2]> note the arch is ixdp425 based for now Dec 10 11:04:22 [g2]: thanks will have a look later, now taking daughter to her friends b-day party Dec 10 11:04:47 [g2]: and he patches you used are then for your loft not the one from nslu2-kernel i suppose? Dec 10 11:09:33 i guess i am using openslug+chroot till i have a serial console that let's me see what is going wrong, hoping for some simple+effective pebkac Dec 10 16:24:25 03oleon * 10unslung/ (make/libbt.mk sources/libbt/port_range.patch): libbt: upstream upgrade to 1.04 Dec 10 16:28:18 03oleon * 10unslung/sources/libbt/ (benc.c.patch libbt-headerfix.patch): libbt: looks like this patches are already in 1.04 Dec 10 19:30:01 ~weather YPAD Dec 10 19:30:04 Adelaide Airport, Australia; (YPAD) 34-56S 138-31E 4M; last updated: 2005.12.11 0200 UTC; Dew Point: 39 F (4 C); Pressure (altimeter): 29.68 in.
