**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sat Aug 11 02:59:57 2007 Aug 11 12:21:45 rwhitby are you here? Just compiled openwrt for the nslu2 from scratch (svn trunk) but i'm stuck on "Warning: unable to open an initial console." Aug 11 12:22:17 vlabakje: do you have init=/etc/preinit in the cmdline? Aug 11 12:23:32 looks like it, just a moment, i'll put the entire console log into a pastebin Aug 11 12:26:06 ATAG_CMDLINE: (94 bytes) 'root=/dev/mtdblock4 rootfstype=squashfs,jffs2 console=ttyS0,115200 init=/etc/preinit noinitrd' Aug 11 12:26:37 rwhitby yes Aug 11 12:27:01 would you like the complete console log? Aug 11 12:27:07 sure Aug 11 12:27:57 http://pastebin.com/d510240e6 Aug 11 12:29:09 looks correct. Aug 11 12:29:16 next thing printed should be -preinit- Aug 11 12:29:32 (that warning always appears) Aug 11 12:29:38 should it take long? (10+ mins?) Aug 11 12:30:16 it takes a while when it's erasing the empty blocks, but it tells you what it's doing. Aug 11 12:31:16 it's still on that warning line Aug 11 12:31:46 i used the squashfs version, should i be using the jffs2? Aug 11 12:40:02 nope, squashfs is correct. Aug 11 12:40:05 8MB image Aug 11 12:40:12 offcourse :) Aug 11 12:40:43 why are there 16MB images nowadays? is there a new nslu2 revision? or is that meant for hardware mods? Aug 11 12:40:56 it's for my 16MB flash hardware mod Aug 11 12:41:13 ah :) Aug 11 12:41:21 ObeseSlug - 16MB flash, 256MB ram Aug 11 12:41:28 nice Aug 11 12:41:45 Pity ipx4xx only works up to 64MB ram ... Aug 11 12:41:52 i'm not too much into the whole soldering Aug 11 12:42:03 so can you use the extra ram then? Aug 11 12:42:15 a guy in the states did this one for me - he had a full SMT setup Aug 11 12:42:35 very cool Aug 11 12:42:38 I have to set it to 64MB in apex Aug 11 12:42:53 have you tried the kamikaze 7.07 image on slug-firmware.net ? Aug 11 12:43:04 the only thing i can think of is that my config may be incorrect, would you mind taking a look? Aug 11 12:43:24 no not yet, i need a few extra packages Aug 11 12:43:25 you should be able to just choose the NSLU2 profile Aug 11 12:43:34 i did Aug 11 12:43:47 can you install the kamikaze image and then just ipkg install the extra packages from the feed? Aug 11 12:44:23 I'd be interested to see if you can boot the pre-built image first, cause I know that one works. Aug 11 12:44:40 that would show whether it's something in your setup, or a bad svn image Aug 11 12:44:51 (or both :-) Aug 11 12:47:10 loading it just now :) Aug 11 12:48:43 yeah, that works Aug 11 12:49:00 root@OpenWrt:/# uname -aLinux OpenWrt 2.6.21.6 #2 Sun Jul 22 15:52:18 CST 2007 armv5teb unknown Aug 11 12:51:38 if you'd like to view it, here's my config Aug 11 12:51:39 http://pastebin.com/d4e4058f8 Aug 11 12:56:35 rwhitby ? Aug 11 12:59:05 can't see anything out of the ordinary there Aug 11 12:59:23 I haven't tested trunk for a week or so myself. Aug 11 13:00:00 very strange.. could it be in the fact that i selected gcc 4.2.1? Aug 11 13:03:48 could easily be Aug 11 13:04:01 are you using 4.2.0? Aug 11 13:05:48 I'm not sure I've tested a svn trunk image since I uploaded that 7.07 image Aug 11 13:06:00 hmmmm Aug 11 13:06:59 do you have any ideas that i could try? i don't really feel like going trough the diff from the 7.07 tree to this one Aug 11 13:08:25 you could try init=/bin/sh on the cmdline and see what's happening Aug 11 13:09:00 i did that actually, it refused to boot the kernel after it loaded it Aug 11 13:09:27 florian * r8396 /trunk/ (2 files in 2 dirs): Addd kernel modules for NTFS (#2181) Aug 11 13:12:28 vlabakje: I have no other ideas. I'll try a build and boot tomorrow (it's coming on bed time here) Aug 11 13:12:51 rwhitby: okay, good night and thanks for the help Aug 11 13:13:04 if you find a solution, could you put it in a private message? Aug 11 13:13:11 i'm not allways watching this channel Aug 11 13:13:12 looks like I've been building with 4.1.2 Aug 11 13:14:05 okay, might try that later today, but that'll be another long build Aug 11 14:03:31 rwhitby: sleeping allready?
