**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Dec 05 02:59:58 2010 Dec 05 07:04:47 hi all .. I was trying to get ubuntu 10.10 netbook workign on my omap4-blaze .. Dec 05 07:05:22 I downloaded the image from http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-netbook/ports/releases/10.10/release/ Dec 05 07:05:42 and followed the instruction from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/OMAPMaverickInstall Dec 05 07:06:07 but when i inserted the sd card to my omap4-blaze and powered it up.. nothing is happening.. Dec 05 07:06:14 it is just dead.. Dec 05 07:06:20 any one ahve any idea .? Dec 05 07:33:55 hello anyone here ..? Dec 05 08:29:37 hello Dec 05 08:30:25 I am not able to boot the ubuntu-netbook pre-installed image on omap4-blaze .. any one have any idea about how to boot it..? Dec 05 11:14:48 natty a1 is out. Is there any rebuilt images for arm as well? Dec 05 11:15:05 jo-erlend, see /topic Dec 05 11:15:15 only omap4 atm though Dec 05 11:15:15 oh... Sorry :) Dec 05 11:15:39 oh, ok. When will there be support for omap3? Dec 05 11:15:54 as soon as we have sorted out the kernel situation Dec 05 11:16:12 the plan is to switch to the linaro kernel for omap3 Dec 05 11:16:27 but that needs some commitment from security and kernel teams Dec 05 11:16:43 since linaro doesnt provide any support after release for their kernel Dec 05 11:16:58 (no committed support at least) Dec 05 11:17:35 oh, ok. But it will happen? Dec 05 11:17:38 lool, what were the symlink errors you saw with x-loader ? i remember that getting the patch for the u-boot headers to work was very very tricky Dec 05 11:19:27 (all headers are linked to out of tree files that only exist in the u-boot tree) Dec 05 11:50:37 ogra_ac: It is with the u-boot headers patch Dec 05 11:50:48 ogra_ac: I basically dpkg-source -x + debuild, and that breaks Dec 05 11:51:23 well if you changed the upstream source it might not properly replace symlinks with files, thats what i meant Dec 05 11:51:29 but seems you didnt do that Dec 05 11:54:11 that would be my only explanation Dec 05 11:55:45 when i last built it (i'm always using dpkg-buildpackage -b though) it worked fine Dec 05 11:56:03 (that was when you asked about signGP.c) Dec 05 12:08:28 ogra_ac: I didn't change it Dec 05 12:08:33 ogra_ac: Did you try it out? Dec 05 12:08:39 ogra_ac: Grab x-loader-omap4 and try building it Dec 05 12:09:14 I'm doing apt-get source and debuild -aarmel -us -uc -b on my desktop Dec 05 12:09:20 dh_quilt_patch Dec 05 12:09:20 Application de 01-add-missing-uboot-headers.patch Dec 05 12:09:20 patching file include/asm/arch-arm1136/clocks.h Dec 05 12:09:20 patch: **** Can't create file include/asm/arch-arm1136/clocks.h : No such file or directory Dec 05 12:09:29 that's with L24.9git20100901-0ubuntu3, currently in the archive Dec 05 12:11:25 builds flawless here Dec 05 12:12:36 http://paste.ubuntu.com/539945/ Dec 05 12:13:16 patch applies fine Dec 05 12:13:41 dh_md5sums Dec 05 12:13:41 dh_builddeb Dec 05 12:13:41 dpkg-deb: Baue Paket »x-loader-omap4« in »../x-loader-omap4_L24.9git20100901-0ubuntu3_armel.deb«.

Dec 05 12:24:54 ranjith, what silicon version is your blaze ? Dec 05 12:25:01 note that ES1 isnt supported Dec 05 12:41:46 ogra_ac: hi, how can i know the silicon version ..? Dec 05 12:42:16 ranjith, good question, i dont know Dec 05 12:42:48 also, while i pulled the card out and put in back in pc after lefting it on the device for some time, the card is formated again,.. ie it is note having hte partition as i had created.. Dec 05 12:43:07 sorry for that question, i am new to this board thats why i asked.. Dec 05 12:43:10 you created partitions ? Dec 05 12:43:34 you shouldnt do that, the image needs to go to the device directly (mmcblk0) Dec 05 12:43:46 it will repartition itself on first boot Dec 05 12:43:58 so where should i put the MLO, ubooot and uImage ..? Dec 05 12:44:23 in the first partition after you zcat'ed the image to the device Dec 05 12:44:32 ok Dec 05 12:44:44 you need to do the zcat, then remove and re-insert the card Dec 05 12:44:48 so first i ahve to keep the card without any partition.. Dec 05 12:44:55 ok Dec 05 12:45:04 after that you should be able to mount the first partition and replace the bootloader files Dec 05 12:45:17 but i already did the gunzip.. and now the image is in .img format not .img.gz .. Dec 05 12:45:37 the image is partitioned, so its essential that you write ti to the device, not to a partition Dec 05 12:45:58 well, if you prefer the complex way, and gunzipped already, use dd instead of zcat Dec 05 12:47:00 So let me try that. as i it is already gunziped i think there wont be any difference in doing dd other than zcat.. Dec 05 12:47:05 thanks for the help.. Dec 05 12:47:10 let me try this.. Dec 05 12:47:31 right, technically there shouldnt be a difference, it just eats your diskspace on the host Dec 05 12:47:40 ok Dec 05 12:59:56 ogra_ac: now i have flashed the image to the card .. should i copy the MLO, u-boot, uImage etc now.. or after the first boot only ..? Dec 05 13:00:38 before Dec 05 13:00:42 ok Dec 05 13:00:43 re-plug the card Dec 05 13:01:00 vfat should be mountable then Dec 05 13:01:13 replace the files and boot the blaze Dec 05 13:01:44 ok Dec 05 13:01:54 both parttions are mounted.. Dec 05 13:02:11 and i ahve replaced the respective file sin the first partition.. Dec 05 13:02:12 k Dec 05 13:02:32 tmzt: no space left Dec 05 13:02:44 tmzt: but it seems I met all other requirements Dec 05 13:39:43 ogra_ac: I found the issue with x-loader-omap4: it's ecryptfs Dec 05 13:40:04 ogra_ac: it builds in my /tmp but not in my /home Dec 05 13:49:01 ogra_ac: it is installed.. and working fine.. thanks for the help. good night.. Dec 05 14:02:51 how come rmadison doesn't show ARM? Dec 05 14:07:48 lool, wow, thats bad Dec 05 17:30:25 dcordes: desktop image? no space on the server or the image is too small? Dec 05 19:42:48 when following https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/RootfsFromScratch, it fails with qemu: fatal: VS[LR]I.64 not implemented Dec 05 19:43:07 is this a known issue? qemu outdated? Dec 05 20:02:59 tmzt: ah right. I didn't specify the image size... next try Dec 05 20:06:34 LetoThe2nd: is that some conflict related to host platform ? Dec 05 20:06:55 LetoThe2nd: x86 vs x86_64 ? Dec 05 20:07:18 dcordes: don't know - i just tried on x64. Dec 05 20:48:49 tmzt: looks good Dec 05 20:57:07 hello everybody, can I install ubuntu on a cheap sylvania arm netbook Dec 05 20:57:39 luis_: that requires a lot more information, but if it's the wmxxxx version then probably not, unless you install jaunty Dec 05 21:00:01 i dont know which version it is, just bought it from cvs. It comes with Windows CE, all i want is to get rid of it and install some version of linux on it Dec 05 22:11:34 tmzt: connection got cut and can't login again Dec 05 22:12:11 a pity people have such short attention span Dec 05 22:12:29 it would have been interesting to discuss luis_' wince device in #htc-linux Dec 05 22:18:17 http://digitalgadgets.com/netbooks/7-in-netbook.htm Dec 05 22:22:50 hm magic rootstock random freeze Dec 05 22:23:18 Unpacking humanity-icon-theme (from .../humanity-icon-theme_0.5.3.2_all.deb) ... Dec 05 22:24:00 tmzt: it might be better to use your method and start off with the minimal image.. Dec 05 22:24:31 it's hopeless waste of time to try making a desktop or netbook image with rootstock Dec 05 22:24:37 good night Dec 06 01:29:20 hrw: are you there?
