**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Wed May 05 02:59:56 2010 May 05 05:16:39 Is there anyway i can extract the uInitrd created for the omap net installer ogra ? May 05 05:18:59 You could dd it off the image. May 05 05:19:08 Oh, net image. May 05 05:19:28 * persia suspects that might already be available May 05 05:19:39 persia: depends on how ogra did the uInitrd creation scripts May 05 05:20:31 Right, but for netboot, it's also available direct from http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/lucid/main/installer-armel/current/images/omap/netboot/omap/ May 05 05:21:29 Its created using mkimage May 05 05:21:47 I wanted to extract the ramdisk image May 05 05:23:49 Oh, to un-mkimage it? I don't know how to do that, sorry. May 05 05:25:05 neither do i :( May 05 05:32:23 bandwidthcrunch_: you need to strip off the first 64 bits May 05 05:32:41 dd if=uImage of=initramfs bs=64 skip=1 should work May 05 05:33:18 That would give us a compressed initrd ? May 05 05:36:08 Well, initramfs (which differs from initrd in subtle ways), but it ought. May 05 05:36:33 Give it a try : worst case you end up with a file to delete :) May 05 05:38:10 Its a compressed initrd which when uncompressed gives a cpio archive May 05 05:41:42 So it was successful? You got what you needed? May 05 05:45:25 yeah it was . A cpio -iv < initramfs extracted the files May 05 05:46:42 I need to bootstrap a device to install a custom lucid version. Have anyone of you noticed a lot of segfaults happening on the omap when apt-get when using the netbook remix version of the same? May 05 05:47:46 The netbook-remix version of apt-get? May 05 05:48:26 Yes persia noticing a lot of segfaults when trying to apt-get May 05 05:49:10 Could you describe your configuration? I'm not sure I understand which combination of software you're using. May 05 05:49:20 spcifically ubuntu-10.04-netbook-armel+omap.img about http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/lucid/release/ May 05 05:50:07 OK. Cool. No special remix software then. May 05 05:50:40 (we use the term "remix" to indicate when something mixes Ubuntu with other modified sources to generate a new thing) May 05 05:51:29 Just the omap image mentioned above with the netbook-launcher-efl (2D desktop using e17) May 05 05:51:29 I've not heard about segfaults on omap much. Please file a bug (with `ubuntu-bug apt`) describing the issue. If you run that on the target system, it will add all the right tags to make sure the right folks look at it. May 05 05:51:37 RIght. May 05 05:52:55 Let me study it a bit more and will file the bugs May 05 05:55:06 Thanks. May 05 05:55:17 It *should* work fine. I know several folks use it regularly. May 05 05:55:48 And you're sure it's SIGSEGV and not SIGILL? We had a lot of SIGILL during the transition to -mthumb2 May 05 05:58:02 Its should ideally work. I tried it on the babbage and the omap. The babbage looked stable enough. I extracted the live images squashfs and dumped it on the omap and then saw this segfaults. Maybe the live CD software is meant to run in ram May 05 06:00:21 Let me spend some more time on it and get back to you persia May 05 06:01:17 Good luck. Don't worry about getting back to me specifically: there's usually several folks around who know more than I :) May 05 06:02:14 Thanks :) May 05 06:37:26 hmm, http://ossguy.com/?p=317 May 05 06:37:31 wonder if that's gigabit. May 05 06:37:52 now it's "netbook edition", not "netbook remix" May 05 06:38:39 2009 holiday season? hah! May 05 09:27:40 * abogani waves May 05 09:27:46 What is the cheapest way to add an ethernet interface on beagle board ? May 05 09:28:36 usb->ethernet May 05 09:31:13 XorA: Thanks. May 05 09:59:40 lool, i'm sure you once filed a whishlist bug for qemu to support 512M, do you remember the bugnumber, i seem to not be able to find it May 05 10:14:13 ogra: I dont have it May 05 10:14:22 ok May 05 10:14:56 * ogra has two subsequent bugs that are caused by it, i wanted to make them duplicates of a wishlist bug May 05 10:15:22 phwe ... there are a lot new arches in debians flash-kernel May 05 10:15:26 * ogra goes to merge May 05 12:28:12 hey ogra, i've been messing around with gdb (qemu bug) not sure if you ran into the same issue when you tried, but i'm getting segmenation faults... http://pastebin.com/MRCxwWZj May 05 15:13:14 ls May 05 15:14:19 / May 05 15:37:30 * ogra hugs rcn-ee ... thanks for the bug report :) May 05 16:01:52 lool: rebuild Ubuntu or wait for someone to provide a rebuild; currently this aint easy, but it's on the radar of various people May 05 16:02:34 lool: who are those people wanting a tool to bootstrap debian/ubuntu? May 05 16:16:13 zumbi, the ubuntu-arm team will work on something like that i suspect May 05 16:17:06 https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-arm/ May 05 16:17:42 https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-arm/+spec/arm-m-automated-bootstrap looks like what you look for May 05 16:21:45 ogra: thanks, very intersting :) May 05 20:59:14 zumbi: Can tell you more in a couple of weeks May 05 20:59:22 zumbi: Lots of interesting UDS sessions this time around May 05 20:59:33 zumbi: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/sprints/uds-m?searchtext=arm- May 05 21:00:06 zumbi: We posted quite a bunch of ARM positions, these folks will be at UDS and we will invest more on ARM related features/developments in the next cycle, see the specs for details on what we will work on May 05 21:08:51 * cwillu_at_work pokes rcn-ee in the kernel May 05 21:09:48 I'm getting a checksum error when my overo tries to read /lib/libc-2.10.1.so, but when I read the file off the card on my desktop, the checksum is correct May 05 21:10:14 I want to blame this on the kernel :D May 05 22:13:54 * Dr_Who waves to lool May 05 22:23:38 what's up cwillu_at_work just pulled in... May 05 22:24:45 umm.. checksum error.. is the disk off the usb bus or mmc? May 05 22:24:50 mmc May 05 22:24:55 same card works in a beagle May 05 22:25:07 modulo the uboot May 05 22:25:39 it's a btrfs checksum error May 05 22:26:14 weird... so the mmc on the overo has a different checksum on a file vs the beagle or x86.. we might have an overo mmc issue then.. May 05 22:26:23 loads up sakoman's overo tree.. May 05 22:26:30 [ 32.748687] mmcblk0: retrying using single block read May 05 22:26:31 [ 33.256378] btrfs csum failed ino 48518 off 1064448 csum 4294967295 private 4294967295 May 05 22:26:57 with no errors on a beagle or on the desktop May 05 22:26:58 yep May 05 22:27:07 in other news, the display works :) May 05 22:27:33 that's good to hear, and the most important part... May 05 22:27:56 :) May 05 22:28:27 yay for having multiple equally critical requirements :p May 05 22:29:07 laughs, he moved his git tree's.. probally got tired of people cloneing them when he says not too... May 05 22:29:42 I'm poking him in #beagle right now :p May 05 22:29:55 I'm also ordering a pizza May 05 22:30:01 we'll see which gets here first \o/ May 05 22:30:26 i saw that too.. starting first beer here.. ;) May 05 22:31:18 oh, weird, didn't see you join there May 05 22:31:53 oh, i've been idleing for a couple days now.. (it's good to be back home, was at esc last week) May 05 22:34:10 http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi ? May 05 22:34:26 git://gitorious.org/gumstix-oe/mainline.git May 05 22:35:11 ah found it.. he redirects everything to "http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi" but it's hidden here: http://www.sakoman.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=summary May 05 22:36:02 you're aware of http://gitorious.org/linux-omap/mainline right? :p May 05 22:36:46 yeap.. i just can't get use to gitorious's interface.. i dont' know why... May 05 22:37:23 what's to get used to? you get the clone url, you clone it, you work from the comfort of your own computer (including a git-web if you must :p) May 05 22:37:55 and then you build a kernel, and then I download it :) May 05 22:38:00 yeah... too many works stations.. ;) May 05 22:38:18 it's pretty quick with --references all over the place.. May 05 22:39:13 is it just one mmc port on the overo? May 05 22:39:48 yes May 05 22:39:55 microsd port May 05 22:40:41 this looked a little interesting: http://www.sakoman.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=commit;h=a64b015ff747b71c3efb1aa47d1cf5fab31f78e0 May 05 22:41:06 * cwillu_at_work clicks May 05 22:43:33 are you suspicious that it broke something, or suspicious that it fixes something? May 05 22:44:58 laughs, we can get rid of the message with: http://www.sakoman.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3d92aab137a4b4b0b71f3222d778d77de58dd1f6 May 05 22:46:33 I'm not sure.. he has about 2-3 just tweaks like the first one and then a big sdio/mmc changeset... May 05 22:47:18 i think we will have to wait till he gets back to see if he's seen any overo mmc corruption issues yet.. May 05 22:48:07 pizza arrived \o/ May 05 22:50:08 do you generally pull from him? May 05 22:50:19 i.e., are these patches already in your kernel? May 05 22:50:32 only for the overo stuff, and then it's mostly cherry picks... May 05 22:51:11 i've actually never seen the overo board.. ;) i just know a lot of people have been using them for the last year based on my tree... May 05 22:53:25 * cwillu_at_work posts an image May 05 22:54:08 http://imgur.com/12RtF May 05 22:54:22 that May 05 22:54:33 that's a tobi with an overo earth May 05 22:54:55 the earth is the smaller board in the middle May 05 22:54:57 it's just a little thing... neat.. May 05 22:55:12 the tobi is a bigger board :) May 05 22:55:32 hang on, I've got an summit around here May 05 22:59:36 the thing I don't like is the cabling May 05 22:59:45 you _need_ to have oddball usb cables to make it work May 05 23:00:25 although I suppose that's more my choice of daughterboard than anything May 05 23:00:26 yeah, those crappy usb mini a's to other... May 05 23:00:52 http://imgur.com/eaWYc&4cRh9&VetF1 May 05 23:01:07 (3 images there) May 05 23:02:19 small but useful, easy to fit a project/product around it.. May 05 23:02:34 yep May 05 23:02:57 about half the size of the beagle, and the same vertical clearance as the beagle's hdmi port May 05 23:03:41 they publish/open-sourced the schematics and such for the daughterboards, although not for the actual mainboards May 05 23:04:07 they bring out all of the pins though, or at least the vast majority of them May 05 23:04:53 some day when I'm right, I kinda wanna make an overo super computer :) May 05 23:05:10 daughterboard with slots for like 16 mainboards :) May 05 23:06:39 that would look sweet, lots of cpu power in a small area.. i know a another guy was buiding a full rack of beagles last year, but the pic's never surfaced.. May 05 23:10:16 rcn-ee : I've got something better :) May 05 23:10:24 rcn-ee : and I'm bringing it to UDS :) May 05 23:11:02 really small tegra 2? ;) nivida finally okay'd me, but they are still backordered... May 05 23:11:37 rcn-ee : Really awesome arm cluster :) May 05 23:11:47 the first smooth-stone prototype May 05 23:12:34 ah very cool... are they shooting for min-atx form factor. ;) May 05 23:13:41 No May 05 23:13:47 but I can't really talk about form factors May 05 23:14:00 In fact, even the prototype I'm bringing has to be kept in the box, and not opened May 05 23:14:48 that's defintelly an early proto... May 05 23:15:15 Yep. May 05 23:21:01 Martyn, ignore the man in the sunglasses and dark hat **** ENDING LOGGING AT Thu May 06 02:59:56 2010
