**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Mar 05 02:59:57 2007 Mar 05 08:40:35 rwhitby: yeah, got the idea from that Mar 05 08:51:28 cool Mar 05 08:52:20 upstream didn't like it, but we told them where to go and carry the patch locally. having the kernel automatically set the mac address and load the networking microcode is just too convenient. Mar 05 08:52:49 well, about the mac address, currently i have my doubts.. seems like the factory firmware's layout is simply too stupid Mar 05 08:53:17 so maybe it's easier if i force the user/add a way to automatically modify the redboot config to hold the good mac and pull it from here Mar 05 08:54:42 Kaloz: did you look at the way the nslu2 board code loads the mac address? Mar 05 08:54:52 yep Mar 05 08:55:05 (but the nas100d's one looked like the one i'm planning to do) Mar 05 08:55:12 where does your board store it? Mar 05 08:55:18 well, if i remmeber right, as i'm just waking up :) Mar 05 08:55:38 in a different mtd partition with the other config stuff for the factory firmware Mar 05 08:55:57 is it at a fixed offset in that partition? Mar 05 08:55:58 as some xml garbage :) Mar 05 08:56:19 no idea, because it seems there were no public firmware udates, but probably contacted guys had some Mar 05 08:56:39 this is another reason why i'm tempting to force to move the change to the redboot config Mar 05 08:56:58 does the stock redboot support that command? Mar 05 08:57:09 (the nslu2 one, for instance, didnt') Mar 05 08:57:27 yep, it does Mar 05 08:59:30 sounds like the best idea then Mar 05 09:08:26 hcg * r6528 /trunk/target/linux/at91-2.6/config/default: Chaged kernel config so default builds cleanly **** BEGIN LOGGING AT Mon Mar 05 09:21:25 2007 Mar 05 10:23:11 hcg * r6529 /trunk/target/linux/at91-2.6/patches/002-mtd-partitiontable.patch: Modified partition table to support jffs2 Mar 05 19:57:35 Kaloz: What firmware are you using for the gateway ? - I can use the one with encryption now right ? (I will have a go at getting the ocf-linux working) but I have forgotten what I need to do Mar 05 19:58:47 h3sp4wn: yeah, but i would suggest setting the right mac address in the redboot config (via fconfig) as i will modify the code to use that (the "default" partition is in a crappy space, also, probably different firmware version will have different location, so i opt for deleting it) Mar 05 19:59:11 h3sp4wn: also, i will change it to have another partition for the microcode, so it will load it from there Mar 05 21:05:04 Kaloz: Do I really need to get verified by intel to download the crypto enabled microcode ? Mar 05 21:05:56 yeah Mar 05 21:05:59 stupid Mar 05 21:13:22 I don't think that nick is going to help either... Mar 05 21:13:39 :P Mar 05 21:14:03 (sorry, couldn't resist) Mar 05 21:15:59 I never thought about that - I think I will use another method of getting it Mar 06 00:08:01 hm, where does uClibc keep its changelog? Mar 06 00:08:09 the changelog in the tarball is quite old Mar 06 00:09:15 and stops at 0.9.27 **** ENDING LOGGING AT Tue Mar 06 02:59:56 2007
