**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Tue Dec 15 02:59:58 2015 Dec 15 14:33:43 Anyone know if HP Slatebook can be turned into an Ubuntu laptop? (It comes with Android on eMMC, Tegra 4 ARM processor) Dec 15 14:36:07 if the bootloader and kernel are open you surely can hack that up ... but likely only with framebuffer driver (no acceleration at all) Dec 15 14:36:20 Ouch Dec 15 14:36:27 Alright, it was worth an ask :) Dec 15 16:40:24 Guys ,I m porting ubuntu arm64 14.04 into an android tv box, running kernel 3.10.x ,can you tell me how can I get a correct initramfs? Dec 15 16:40:40 ogra_, lilwiz: It might work with nouveau. Newer Tegras are meant to. Dec 15 16:41:10 anyone interesting with RK3368 8cores Aarch64 Dec 15 16:43:58 :join #ubuntu-arm64 Dec 15 16:44:45 bama_: Using random Android kernel builds isn't really in scope for an Ubuntu channel, to be fair. Dec 15 16:44:59 whats #ubuntu-arm64 ? Dec 15 16:45:34 i type a wrong command in irc Dec 15 16:45:46 still that shouldnt exist Dec 15 16:46:12 this channel here is good enough for 32 and 64 bit together :) Dec 15 16:46:24 thanks Dec 15 16:46:58 is there any strong relationship between kernel and initramfs? Dec 15 16:48:16 depends on your kernel config Dec 15 16:49:05 bama_: If you need an initramfs at all, then yes, there's a strong relationship, as the initramfs contains kernel modules. Dec 15 16:49:22 bama_: But if all your storage drivers are built into the kernel (which is common with Android kernels), you don't need an initramfs at all. Dec 15 16:49:46 You just need to boot with "root=/dev/whatever" and watch the magic. Dec 15 16:49:48 if everything your system needs to boot the rootfs (all systemd options, uboot, filesystems etc) is compiled in... the initrd isnt that important ... if any of your drivers needed to get to rootfs is a module, you need an initrd though Dec 15 16:49:59 s/uboot/udev/ Dec 15 16:54:10 : thanks, im trying Dec 15 16:56:42 : mkbootimg need a ramdisk argument Dec 15 16:56:57 can i create an empty ramfs? Dec 15 17:01:00 http://pastebin.ubuntu.com/14030060/ Dec 15 17:01:10 yes, with out initramfs , system bootup Dec 15 17:01:45 but how to modify ubuntu-core-14.04-core-arm64.tar.gz to fit my board?
