| 09:42.15 | hipboi | rellla: i did not know it was listed on the website |
| 09:42.29 | rellla | http://www.allwinnertech.com/en/devkit/CubieBoard.html ;) |
| 09:42.51 | hipboi | when i knew it, i thought it was funny |
| 09:43.02 | rellla | so imho you should get some help, too ;) |
| 09:43.28 | rellla | bugless cedarx-libs for example ... |
| 09:43.34 | hipboi | and also cubieboard is also listed in the Allwinner product booklet |
| 09:44.25 | hipboi | well, before they did not know I have relationship with cubieboard |
| 09:44.52 | rm | someone needs to make a huge trollface and ask for the "Linux SDK" for download |
| 09:44.56 | rm | from Allwinner |
| 09:44.59 | rellla | your relationship to allwinner is good anymore or a bit "frozen"? |
| 09:45.01 | rm | since they list it on their page |
| 09:45.22 | hipboi | eva contacted me recently |
| 09:45.44 | hipboi | and asked me if i know cubieboard |
| 09:46.01 | rellla | rm: maybe we should ask for some sdk, not knowing who tom is... |
| 09:47.20 | rellla | hipboi: seems, that allwinners are sparely looking out of there own walls ... |
| 09:48.39 | rellla | bad english \o/ |
| 09:49.10 | hipboi | but things may change |
| 09:49.24 | hipboi | eva's boss wanted to meet me |

| 09:50.43 | lawrence | Mr Tang meet mr 老板 哈哈 |

| 09:52.09 | rellla | could become the best allwinner news for a long time... |
| 09:53.08 | herdingcat | lawrence, if I didn't set up MAC address, does it create a default one? |
| 09:53.54 | lawrence | check the code in the ethernet setup for that in the kernel for the realtek card - mine is a rtl8201p |
| 09:54.18 | herdingcat | lawrence, sorry? |
| 09:54.42 | lawrence | if the uboot didn't setup a mac address, then the kernel doesn't get passed one |
| 09:54.49 | lawrence | so check the ethernet code for that in the driver |
| 09:55.02 | lawrence | which is in the kernel drivers/ethernet/ |
| 09:55.15 | lawrence | which is my way of saying, i don't know offhand, go look |
| 09:55.16 | lawrence | ;) |
| 09:56.13 | rm | herdingcat, will be a random MAC address |
| 09:56.15 | rm | different each boot |
| 09:56.38 | herdingcat | lawrence, okay, so where's fex2bin ? I go to the sunxi-tools but no such utility |
| 09:57.03 | herdingcat | rm, can I make it permanent? |
| 09:57.09 | *** join/#cubieboard qermit (~qermit@unaffiliated/pantofel) |
| 09:57.32 | rm | so either write it into script.bin |
| 09:57.44 | rm | or set it on boot-up in your OS with ifconfig |
| 09:58.20 | herdingcat | rm, okay, got it! |
| 10:00.26 | herdingcat | so about .fex, I shall choose cubieboard.fex to create script.bin, right? |
| 10:00.34 | lawrence | yup |
| 10:00.42 | lawrence | but make appropriate changes for your needs / kernel |
| 10:00.53 | lawrence | eg if you want or don't want HDMI init'd etc |
| 10:01.07 | lawrence | and don't forget to add at the end the MAC settings as i posted before |
| 10:01.46 | herdingcat | lawrence, but for compiling u-boot I'm using following command: make mele_a1000 CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- |
| 10:01.52 | herdingcat | lawrence, is that would be a problem? |
| 10:02.31 | mnemoc | herdingcat: u-boot-sunxi has specific board name for cubieboard and cubieboard_512 |
| 10:02.46 | mnemoc | with proper dram initialization for each case |
| 10:02.53 | mnemoc | don't reuse a different device |
| 10:03.17 | lawrence | there is a cubieboard 1g fex in the folder up there |
| 10:03.22 | lawrence | lemme find the link for him |
| 10:03.37 | herdingcat | mnemoc, so I need to run make cubieboard CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabihf- for 1G u-boot binary, right? |
| 10:03.49 | mnemoc | yes |
| 10:05.53 | lawrence | @herdingcat - why not use the uboot from the nightlies? |
| 10:06.13 | lawrence | no real need to compile that yourself generally. |
| 10:06.13 | herdingcat | lawrence, I wanna understand how to from scratch. |
| 10:06.40 | lawrence | i'm usually thankful i don't have to do it myself ;) |
| 10:07.06 | lawrence | usually i don't have the luxury, and have to setup jtag to do initial ipl -> board. |
| 10:07.11 | herdingcat | lawrence, where to find fex2bin utility? |
| 10:07.39 | lawrence | http://forum.retrosticks.com/index.php/topic,43.0.html |
| 10:07.41 | mnemoc | https://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-tools |
| 10:07.46 | lawrence | follow my instructions there |
| 10:07.53 | lawrence | its on github |
| 10:08.09 | mnemoc | please don't reference my github |
| 10:08.13 | lawrence | I also pasted the default cubieboard fex from decompiling mine |
| 10:08.15 | mnemoc | use linux-sunxi instead |
| 10:08.45 | lawrence | i can't even get to github today from shanghai |
| 10:08.49 | lawrence | its verboten :( |
| 10:08.52 | lawrence | otherwise i would |
| 10:09.04 | lawrence | so, just cut n paste from stuff i wrote already |
| 10:09.20 | lawrence | china getting very painful for access to external sites, sigh. |
| 10:09.30 | mnemoc | lawrence: can you access http://linux-sunxi.org/Sunxi-tools ? |
| 10:09.43 | lawrence | yes. |
| 10:09.54 | lawrence | today git not working though |
| 10:10.21 | mnemoc | tried over https:// instead of git:// ? |
| 10:10.36 | lawrence | i'm getting github doesn't resolve, so its dns related |
| 10:10.46 | lawrence | i might need to turn off dnssec at the router |
| 10:10.58 | mnemoc | 207.97.227.239 |
| 10:11.04 | lawrence | as might be that the gfw is doing funky things for it today |
| 10:11.05 | mnemoc | github.com ----^ |
| 10:11.25 | lawrence | i think blocked |
| 10:11.30 | lawrence | as 207.97.227.239 also nyet. |
| 10:11.32 | mnemoc | /etc/hosts should solve the problem unless they are blocking the ip range |
| 10:11.34 | mnemoc | :< |
| 10:11.35 | mnemoc | f* |
| 10:11.37 | lawrence | hopefully just temporary |
| 10:11.47 | lawrence | they do that sometimes just to annoy developers |
| 10:12.01 | lawrence | as you know, having access to code is highly seditious |
| 10:12.20 | mnemoc | *g* |
| 10:12.28 | lawrence | yes, there is always the vee pee en route |
| 10:12.41 | lawrence | but we do internet stuff, so i don't like to.. |
| 10:12.48 | lawrence | as we require licences to do things |
| 10:12.48 | mnemoc | ssh tunnels are nice too |
| 10:13.15 | lawrence | and government prefers we don't try to avoid the very nice rules they put in place for very good reasons(tm). |
| 10:13.24 | lawrence | otherwise they get a bit miffy with us. |
| 10:13.47 | lawrence | and i prefer to avoid that sort of fun. |
| 10:15.33 | mnemoc | what repo you need to clone? |
| 10:16.03 | lawrence | me? - i don't currently, i have it already |
| 10:16.21 | mnemoc | ok |
| 10:16.21 | lawrence | was herdingcat asking where to get the bin2fex stuff |
| 10:16.47 | lawrence | i have us servers, so i can always do via those, just a bit of a pain. |
| 10:16.57 | lawrence | but thanks for the thought ;) |

| 10:59.37 | bigx | (btw I forgot to thank you buZz & cybin the last time you took some of your time to help me) |
| 11:00.16 | bigx | I ran the alsa info script |

| 11:00.34 | bigx | here is the link : http://www.alsa-project.org/db/?f=15b4fd9af5c991036019dedd698deeacb37b553b |
| 11:01.08 | bigx | beside of that I can play sound, e.g. with the aplay command |
| 11:03.03 | bigx | but when I try to use pd-extended the following error occurs like 10times/second |
| 11:03.13 | bigx | ALSA input error (restart failed): Broken pipe |
| 11:03.13 | bigx | ALSA output error (restart failed): Broken pipe |
| 11:03.56 | bigx | and that's where my hardaware configuration knowledge ends :( |
| 11:04.32 | bigx | so if someone can help me with that i will be grateful |
| 11:06.11 | bigx | the goal of all of that is to use pd-extended to detect commercial ads in a audio real time stream, and scramble it |

| 12:31.37 | suhanc | yeah,it even work on toasters and stuff..but i haven't installed netbsd anywher before and the howtos i found are all for tftp-ing the stuff,which would overwrite the default firmware i guess..do you know any methods to install on a microsd? |
| 12:31.41 | jammi | netbsd would be nice |
| 12:32.02 | jammi | tried ebcarm with little success and it doesn't have much documentation either |
| 12:32.30 | mnemoc | suhanc: there is a port to freebsd in progress, but afaik only core and 8250 for now |
| 12:33.16 | suhanc | yeah,i'm just trying http://kernelnomicon.org/?p=164 but unsure if ports are fine and all the package base.. |
| 12:34.35 | jammi | there's also a haiku port going on, but I think the developers would appreciate some donated boards and stuff |
| 12:35.17 | jammi | it boots on the qemu arm emulator, and they have had some success at beagleboard |
| 12:36.01 | jammi | the rpi port is barely loading the bootloader, and the hardware is much more challenging there due to the closedness |
| 12:37.08 | jammi | as an os, it would be a good desktop os for low-performance hardware like these |
| 12:37.34 | suhanc | on the linux side i haven't seen so much differences..at least fedora rpi remix works nice with my cubie at the moment..although headless,but i don't really care about this part,it's just extra comfort |

| 12:38.38 | suhanc | my point in the cubie is rather the embedded device than the desktop..because the low amount of memory web browsing may be a pain though |

| 14:44.33 | Jonathan_Eyre | My pre-made image works beautifully, but if I unpack it with livesuit and repack it without any modifications, that alone ruins the image, so that it does not auto-install on the crane device. |

| 14:48.41 | Jonathan_Eyre | Are there any tutorials online that show how to pack an Android image for the Phoenix Card program? |
| 14:48.53 | Jonathan_Eyre | Any help would be appreciated. |
| 14:50.20 | Jonathan_Eyre | I am using PhoneixCard 3.06, which I thought was the latest version. |
| 14:51.37 | Jonathan_Eyre | I used it on an image "sun4i_a10 4500.img", and it DOES work with this image. When I use PhoenixCard to put the image on an sdcard and then boot my A10 laptop with it in, it auto-wipes the laptop. |
| 14:52.06 | Jonathan_Eyre | However, using livesuit to unpack and repack the image make it not auto-wipe anymore. |
| 14:52.56 | Jonathan_Eyre | I was referred here by #arm-netbook, because they are not familiar with any of these technologies. (or they just don't want to talk about it) |

| 15:01.19 | lawrence | @jonathan - why specifically are you using that software? |
| 15:02.17 | lawrence | personally I find it easier to create the sd image myself using the uboot, 2 partitions |
| 15:02.28 | lawrence | i can walk you through that if you need |
| 15:02.44 | lawrence | (seeing as I promised to write it up for someone else already) |
| 15:04.10 | Jonathan_Eyre | I am only using Phoenix Card becuase I know it works. |
| 15:04.17 | Jonathan_Eyre | (with a prebuilt image) |
| 15:04.49 | Jonathan_Eyre | I would love to get my sdcard packed with my own image and I would love to use the auto-install to do it. |
| 15:05.10 | Jonathan_Eyre | If there is another way, I will go through any steps I need to. |
| 15:05.10 | lawrence | do you have a linux/unix box available? |
| 15:05.24 | Jonathan_Eyre | I have a virtual ubuntu on a windows 8. |
| 15:05.36 | lawrence | if not, suggest prepare for one, as most stuff is *nix based. |
| 15:05.38 | Jonathan_Eyre | That is what I compiled aosp on. |
| 15:05.40 | lawrence | ok, perfect |
| 15:06.06 | lawrence | the current SD image that phoenix card wrote - you have that also? |
| 15:06.19 | Jonathan_Eyre | Yes. |
| 15:06.22 | lawrence | ok, cool. |
| 15:06.27 | lawrence | open up the vm |
| 15:06.31 | Jonathan_Eyre | Do I need that as a starting point? |
| 15:06.32 | lawrence | and mount the sd card |
| 15:06.54 | lawrence | i'm going to say yes, as we'll need the FEX file config from that as you say its working |
| 15:07.11 | lawrence | i'll give a quick rundown so you have an idea. |
| 15:07.25 | lawrence | SD card contains a number of files /partitions |
| 15:07.46 | lawrence | @8k on the SD card is an IPL (its a "pre-boot loader loader!") |
| 15:08.22 | lawrence | @32k on the SD card is SPL (secondary stage loader) |

| 15:08.43 | lawrence | the first one is a tiny program to init the chip |
| 15:09.01 | lawrence | the second is a slightly larger program to then continue config and boot |
| 15:09.32 | lawrence | that second one needs a config file to know how to setup our SoC (the A10 is a System on Chip - aka SoC) |
| 15:09.59 | lawrence | The A10 config is a compiled FEX file |
| 15:10.05 | Jonathan_Eyre | Nice, okay. |
| 15:10.29 | lawrence | there is an online fex -> bin (the compiled file) and vice-versa here https://www.miniand.com/tools/fexc |
| 15:10.38 | lawrence | and also in the linux-sunxi tools on github |
| 15:11.10 | lawrence | the SPL uses the FEX file, and loads a Kernel in our first partition. |
| 15:11.16 | lawrence | this is at 1MB on the SD card |
| 15:11.22 | lawrence | So, so far we have on the SD |
| 15:11.28 | herdingcat | lawrence, hi mate, my cubieboard stucks here: http://fpaste.org/naws/ |
| 15:11.30 | Jonathan_Eyre | Does it choose its own kernel? |
| 15:11.35 | lawrence | 0-1MB - fill with 0000's |
| 15:11.42 | lawrence | @8k - the init code |
| 15:11.58 | lawrence | @32k - the initial boot loader (uboot) / spl |
| 15:12.12 | lawrence | I'm used to calling those IPL / SPL |
| 15:12.19 | Jonathan_Eyre | Right. |
| 15:12.19 | lawrence | as thats how its called in other similar SoC's |
| 15:12.25 | lawrence | the SPL |
| 15:12.30 | lawrence | loads our Kernel |
| 15:12.40 | lawrence | this can be linux, or android or anything really |
| 15:12.49 | lawrence | as long as formatted correctly for the cpu to use |
| 15:13.10 | herdingcat | lawrence, could you pls. have a look if convenient? |

| 15:13.24 | lawrence | it loads that code at 0x4800000 in memory (going off the top of my head), but its been a while since i looked at the uboot code |
| 15:13.43 | lawrence | @herdingcat hang on, trying to explain to jon first |
| 15:13.50 | herdingcat | lawrence, thanks |
| 15:13.55 | lawrence | ok, so we have IPL -> SPL -> Kernel |
| 15:14.17 | lawrence | kernel will then load an FS whereever you stick it, based on kernel params (which is standard linux setup) |
| 15:14.34 | lawrence | on the ones I've made so far, I make a 2nd partition ext3 or ext4 for that |
| 15:14.36 | ganbold_ | lawrence: isn't ... SPL->uboot->kernel .... etc? |
| 15:15.22 | lawrence | IPL is the @8k, SPL is @ 32k, Kernel is @ 1M (together with uBoot config (fex), then 2nd partition is rootfs (config @ kernel side) |
| 15:15.37 | lawrence | (this is all assuming SD) |
| 15:15.47 | lawrence | for NAND its slightly different layout, but quite similar |
| 15:16.21 | lawrence | the uBoot partition @ 1m can be anything the uBoot knows to read. |
| 15:16.36 | lawrence | typically for us, this is vFAT. |
| 15:16.42 | lawrence | can be other format though |
| 15:17.06 | lawrence | so jon, the reason i told you all this, is that we want to grab some of the config info from your *working* SD |
| 15:17.41 | lawrence | what hardware are you? |
| 15:17.59 | lawrence | there are premade uboot and ipl available on the sunxi linux site in the nightly area |
| 15:18.12 | lawrence | or we can rip out your current working ones straight from the sd card |
| 15:19.02 | lawrence | @ganbold - terms are flexible, but i try to keep to common industry use if possible, just because its what i'm used to |
| 15:19.26 | lawrence | @ganbold - as i do other SoC stuff, and i like consistency |
| 15:19.38 | lawrence | @herdingcat - in the interim i can take a lookski |
| 15:20.02 | Jonathan_Eyre | What hardware do I want to put this on? I have a A10 crane laptop. |
| 15:20.13 | lawrence | @herdingcat - but fpaste.org appears to be blocked, so i guess not. |
| 15:20.29 | Jonathan_Eyre | It does not have any hardware buttons like volume, so getting into fastboot is nigh impossible. |
| 15:20.45 | Jonathan_Eyre | The connected usb keyboard does not get loaded until the OS is up. |
| 15:20.46 | lawrence | @jonathan_eyre - i'm not familiar with that one, so best we grab your working info off your SD card |
| 15:20.49 | herdingcat | lawrence, how about pastebin? |
| 15:20.59 | Jonathan_Eyre | Okay, hold on. |
| 15:21.11 | lawrence | @herdingcat - private message maybe in irc? |

| 15:22.12 | lawrence | @herdingcat - I can't open pastebin |
| 15:22.32 | herdingcat | lawrence, hmm |
| 15:22.35 | lawrence | @jonathan_eyre so, ubuntu loaded, sd card mounted |
| 15:22.51 | lawrence | @jonathan_eyre does ubuntu say there are any partitions mounted for you automagically? |
| 15:22.58 | herdingcat | lawrence, the stucks at <6>serial8250.0: ttyS0 at MMIO 0x1c28000 (irq = 1) is a U6_16550A |
| 15:23.01 | Jonathan_Eyre | The sd card is not mounted. I'm having trouble with my virtualbox. |
| 15:23.26 | lawrence | @jonathan_eyre well, we'll need to get files from the card, so get a working linux /nix install running |
| 15:23.37 | lawrence | @jonathan_eyre as windows is painful for that sort of stuff |
| 15:23.44 | Jonathan_Eyre | I'm on it. |
| 15:24.11 | lawrence | @herdingcat - your own kernel? or existing one? |
| 15:24.20 | herdingcat | lawrence, both I tried. |
| 15:24.52 | herdingcat | lawrence, I tried this: http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/nightly/latest/uImage |
| 15:25.15 | lawrence | i think the nightlies are linaro |
| 15:25.19 | herdingcat | lawrence, here's my boot.cmd |
| 15:25.28 | lawrence | your fex is from where? |
| 15:25.53 | herdingcat | setenv bootargs console=ttyS0 console=ttyS0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootwait selinux=0 panic=10 ${extra} |
| 15:25.57 | lawrence | as that config's what hardware is avail |

| 15:26.13 | herdingcat | bootm 0x48000000 |
| 15:26.22 | herdingcat | you mean cubieboard.fex? |
| 15:27.26 | lawrence | yes, you'll have stuck a compiled fex in the 1st partition for the uboot to read |
| 15:27.31 | lawrence | where did you get that from? |
| 15:27.45 | lawrence | and where did you get the uboot from (that you wrote to 32k) |
| 15:27.55 | lawrence | as the uboot is distinct to a board setup |
| 15:28.01 | herdingcat | lawrence, git clone git://github.com/linux-sunxi/sunxi-boards.git to get all fex |

| 15:30.25 | lawrence | suggest use the cubieboard 1G image from nightly first to make sure you didn't mess up first |
| 15:30.33 | lawrence | once you know that your kernel is ok |
| 15:30.44 | lawrence | then move to using your own |
| 15:30.53 | herdingcat | lawrence, in u-boot part, it's booting to kernel already. I think u-boot is stage is passed. |
| 15:30.58 | lawrence | as best is to eliminate possible issues |
| 15:31.04 | lawrence | so maybe humour me first |
| 15:31.21 | herdingcat | lawrence, I'm doing the whole steps by this: http://linux-sunxi.org/FirstSteps |
| 15:31.21 | lawrence | and use the cubieboard uboot and fex(bin) from the nightlies for the board |
| 15:31.39 | lawrence | so we can eliminate those as possible issues |
| 15:32.02 | herdingcat | lawrence, this site? http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/nightly/latest/ |

| 15:35.19 | lawrence | go there |
| 15:35.27 | lawrence | download the *correct* one for your board |
| 15:35.32 | lawrence | i'm assuming cubie 1g right? |
| 15:35.47 | herdingcat | lawrence, yes |
| 15:35.48 | lawrence | so get the cubieboard_hwpack.tar.xz |
| 15:36.03 | herdingcat | lawrence, what's that? |
| 15:36.04 | lawrence | unpack, and inside you'll find everything guaranteed working for cubieboard |
| 15:36.11 | mnemoc | http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/amery/repo-dumps/sunxi-bsp.tar.xz is a fresh clone of sunxi-bsp |
| 15:36.14 | mnemoc | repo |
| 15:36.25 | mnemoc | there you'll find an script to extract the hwpack |
| 15:36.37 | mnemoc | into a card |
| 15:36.54 | lawrence | right now @herdingcat suggest don't use the script |
| 15:36.55 | herdingcat | mnemoc, currently I just need a working kernel + bootloader |
| 15:37.09 | lawrence | use the uboot and bin (fex) from the working nightly |
| 15:37.12 | mnemoc | herdingcat: ok, then take them from the hwpack |
| 15:37.14 | lawrence | and test if its your kernel or not |
| 15:37.19 | lawrence | thats why i said we get that |
| 15:37.24 | lawrence | as i *know* those work |
| 15:37.29 | mnemoc | :) |
| 15:37.30 | lawrence | and we're eliminating things |
| 15:37.36 | lawrence | right mnemoc ? :) |
| 15:37.44 | herdingcat | lawrence, okay, so I just need to replace the "broken" stuff, right? |
| 15:37.59 | lawrence | @herdingcat i don't know what your issue is yet |
| 15:38.03 | lawrence | so unzip that |
| 15:38.11 | lawrence | and write the uboot @32k on your sd card |
| 15:38.18 | herdingcat | lawrence, okay |
| 15:38.23 | herdingcat | lawrence, downloading... |
| 15:38.26 | lawrence | the ipl is fine, as you get -> uboot |
| 15:38.44 | lawrence | so, @32k write the SPL (uboot file) |
| 15:38.50 | mnemoc | glad the gfw isn't blocking linux-sunxi.org's server |
| 15:39.04 | lawrence | and in the first partition stick the correct bin file from that also |
| 15:39.16 | lawrence | *remove any other bin file you may have added in that partition* |
| 15:39.30 | herdingcat | just curious, what's sunxi? |
| 15:39.43 | mnemoc | the name of the platform |
| 15:39.46 | lawrence | ask mnemoc |
| 15:40.13 | lawrence | i could have sworn the A10 is called Crane myself |

| 15:53.43 | lawrence | anything else? |
| 15:54.13 | herdingcat | lawrence, boot.cmd |
| 15:54.19 | herdingcat | nothing... |
| 15:54.27 | mnemoc | btw, plain text uEnv.txt is also supported |
| 15:54.29 | lawrence | you should have |
| 15:54.43 | herdingcat | lawrence, uEnv.txt??? |
| 15:55.04 | mnemoc | it's equivalent to boot.scr but plain text, not compiled |
| 15:55.11 | mnemoc | more... friendly |
| 15:55.13 | lawrence | kernel (imho rather badly named uImage), a script.bin file (FEX config), and a boot.cmd |

| 15:56.03 | herdingcat | lawrence, nothing more.. |
| 15:56.13 | lawrence | so you have 3 files |
| 15:56.15 | lawrence | yes or no |
| 15:56.26 | herdingcat | lawrence, no, and boot.cmd |
| 15:56.43 | lawrence | please copy the script.bin (from the hwpack) into that partition |
| 15:56.52 | herdingcat | lawrence, [root@localhost media]# ls FDC4-74D0/ |
| 15:56.53 | herdingcat | boot.cmd boot.scr script.bin uImage |
| 15:56.56 | lawrence | thats a compiled FEX file which is correct for the cubieboard |
| 15:57.02 | herdingcat | lawrence, already... |
| 15:57.06 | lawrence | ok, cool. |
| 15:57.14 | herdingcat | lawrence, I have copied that file... |
| 15:57.15 | mnemoc | herdingcat: do you see the greeting from spl and u-boot on the serial console? |
| 15:57.24 | lawrence | so gets stuck still same place? |
| 15:57.36 | herdingcat | mnemoc, yes, I wanna paste my output! |
| 15:57.42 | herdingcat | lawrence, yes, the same place.. |
| 15:57.57 | lawrence | ok, lets do 1 more test |
| 15:58.12 | lawrence | replace the uImage (your linux kernel) with the one from the hwpack |
| 15:58.25 | lawrence | you can rename your current one to uImage.herdingcat for now |
| 15:58.28 | herdingcat | mnemoc, http://fpaste.org/sfBa/ |
| 15:58.42 | lawrence | also, can you paste your boot text |
| 15:58.55 | herdingcat | lawrence, I'm using all of it from hwpack, the same result. |
| 15:59.09 | herdingcat | lawrence, you mean the whole booting messages? |
| 15:59.23 | lawrence | no, i mean the config you gave your uboot |
| 15:59.32 | lawrence | boot.scr or boot.cmd whichever isn't the compiled one |
| 15:59.41 | lawrence | paste that here for me to recheck |
| 15:59.48 | mnemoc | appending earlyprintk to the command line might help |
| 16:00.01 | mnemoc | to see what's going on |
| 16:00.05 | herdingcat | lawrence, [root@localhost media]# cat FDC4-74D0/boot.cmd |

| 16:00.07 | herdingcat | bootm 0x48000000 |
| 16:00.38 | lawrence | ok, that looks correct |
| 16:01.01 | herdingcat | lawrence, can I show you the whole message? |
| 16:01.09 | herdingcat | lawrence, Is there any way to post it? |
| 16:01.16 | ganbold_ | pastebin.ca |
| 16:01.37 | herdingcat | lawrence, can you access that site? |
| 16:01.45 | lawrence | herding |
| 16:01.49 | lawrence | make a uEnv.txt |
| 16:01.51 | lawrence | paste this in |
| 16:02.08 | lawrence | bootenv=boot.scr |
| 16:02.23 | herdingcat | lawrence, okay, doing that... |

| 16:03.35 | mnemoc | herdingcat: that output looks fine.... what's the problem? |
| 16:03.38 | lawrence | @herdingcat done. |
| 16:03.49 | herdingcat | mnemoc, system hangs... |
| 16:04.15 | lawrence | hey, pastebin.ca is not blocked! |
| 16:04.16 | mnemoc | herdingcat: but it's booting. there is nothing to mess with u-boot |
| 16:05.08 | herdingcat | mnemoc, so I cannot debug the problem |
| 16:05.17 | herdingcat | lawrence, stuck as well... |
| 16:05.21 | lawrence | @herdingcat - the bad CRC, using default environment in your paste will be fixed if you add the uEnv.txt I just gave you |
| 16:05.35 | ganbold_ | herdingcat: as I said try from working one |

| 16:06.36 | lawrence | then lets add earlyprintk to the boot params for the kernel |
| 16:06.46 | lawrence | as mnemoc suggested so we get a little more detail |
| 16:06.48 | herdingcat | lawrence, here's the output after add uEnv.txt: http://pastebin.ca/2305922 |
| 16:06.58 | lawrence | did you create a rootfs for the kernel to use? |
| 16:07.13 | herdingcat | lawrence, yes, it's stopped at serial... |
| 16:07.18 | herdingcat | lawrence, yes, I have a rootfs |
| 16:07.22 | lawrence | kernel *should* crap out if there isnt with that |
| 16:07.46 | lawrence | waiting for 2nd paste to load |
| 16:07.47 | lawrence | we should be able to sort it out though |
| 16:07.55 | mnemoc | lawrence: nah, earlyprintk won't help |
| 16:08.10 | mnemoc | lawrence: i thought his uImage was not printk()ing anything, but it is |
| 16:08.23 | mnemoc | init=/bin/sh might help |
| 16:08.30 | mnemoc | smells to userspace problem :) |
| 16:08.41 | lawrence | i did just ask about rootfs |
| 16:08.47 | herdingcat | lawrence, the only thing confuses me that if kernel cannot find the rootfs it would be panic and tell me cannot find the rootfs |
| 16:08.56 | herdingcat | lawrence, so what I shall do now? |
| 16:09.03 | mnemoc | herdingcat: try init=/bin/sh |
| 16:09.40 | lawrence | or noinitrd |
| 16:09.51 | herdingcat | setenv bootargs init=/bin/sh console=ttyS0 console=ttyS0 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootfstype=ext4 rootwait selinux=0 panic=10 ${extra} |
| 16:09.56 | herdingcat | lawrence, right? |
| 16:09.58 | lawrence | yup |
| 16:10.07 | mnemoc | remove the double console= |
| 16:10.07 | lawrence | i shall bow to mnemoc's superior skillz |
| 16:10.13 | mnemoc | nah |
| 16:10.16 | lawrence | as he spotted the missing init |
| 16:10.25 | mnemoc | no superior skill here |
| 16:10.27 | lawrence | i would have got there just now though ;) |
| 16:10.32 | herdingcat | then run: mkimage -C none -A arm -T script -d boot.cmd boot.scr |
| 16:10.34 | herdingcat | right? |
| 16:10.39 | lawrence | y |
| 16:10.55 | lawrence | personally i do noinitrd |
| 16:11.07 | lawrence | as i do that all in the rootfs |
| 16:11.10 | lawrence | but thats me |
| 16:11.24 | lawrence | we should be able to see it crap out now (assuming you no haz initrd ) |

| 16:12.07 | mnemoc | init=/bin/sh will only help to discard distro specific problems |
| 16:12.42 | lawrence | noinitrd is safer imho, as we can't assume on what he's got |
| 16:12.52 | lawrence | and kernel should pass to rootfs if there is one |
| 16:12.53 | herdingcat | lawrence, the same result... |
| 16:13.00 | herdingcat | lawrence, no more info output... |
| 16:13.36 | lawrence | ok, so lets take a look at your rootfs |
| 16:13.40 | lawrence | how did you make that? |
| 16:13.55 | lawrence | what format is it? |
| 16:14.12 | lawrence | you're specifying ext4 |
| 16:14.12 | lawrence | so should be ext4 |
| 16:14.14 | herdingcat | lawrence, I'm using the rootfs from Fedora 17: http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora-secondary/releases/17/Images/armhfp/Fedora-17-armhfp-console.tar.xz |
| 16:14.17 | lawrence | and in partition 2 |
| 16:14.41 | tinti | cubieboard sold out again! kkk |
| 16:14.53 | lawrence | you want to change to noinitrd in the boot.scr for me just to humour me |
| 16:14.59 | mnemoc | herdingcat: can you give a try to the uImage from http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/amery/testing-3.4/latest/ ? |
| 16:15.04 | lawrence | as i'm not a fan of init=/bin/sh |
| 16:15.15 | mnemoc | it has a proper uart driver |
| 16:15.45 | herdingcat | lawrence, yes, I have a question. My laptop does not have microSD reader so I bought a USB holder to read the SD card. So all device name would be sdX in my laptop. Is that would be a problem? |
| 16:15.55 | lawrence | no problem |
| 16:16.01 | herdingcat | lawrence, okay |
| 16:16.08 | herdingcat | lawrence, so what;s the next step? |
| 16:16.17 | lawrence | but the boot stuff in the card Has to refer to the mmcblk bla bla |
| 16:16.23 | lawrence | as thats how the cubie uboot mounts it |
| 16:16.34 | lawrence | i'd do what mnemoc suggested - use the 3.4 kernel |
| 16:16.37 | herdingcat | lawrence, yes, I know that... |
| 16:16.39 | lawrence | and see if that posts further |
| 16:16.55 | herdingcat | lawrence, so only kernel(uImage) I need to replace, right? |
| 16:16.59 | lawrence | there is a debian FS here if you need - http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/rellla/debian-unstable-armhf.tar.bz2 |
| 16:17.03 | lawrence | but first try kernel |
| 16:17.20 | lawrence | if its still the same, then i suggest wipe your 2nd partition, and recreate using that |
| 16:17.39 | lawrence | if a complete set of known working doesn't work, may be your board. |
| 16:17.44 | lawrence | does it boot otherwise? |
| 16:18.01 | mnemoc | herdingcat: yes, only the uImage |
| 16:18.12 | herdingcat | lawrence, mate, if I didn't set rootfs, what error message would come out? |
| 16:18.26 | herdingcat | lawrence, after I got the system I noticed android can boot well.. |
| 16:18.37 | lawrence | you should see the kernel bork with unable to mount rootfs |
| 16:18.40 | lawrence | which is good |
| 16:18.44 | lawrence | as it means it tried to do that ;) |
| 16:18.49 | lawrence | instead of freezing |
| 16:18.56 | herdingcat | lawrence, but currently the kernel is not working... |
| 16:19.09 | herdingcat | lawrence, so we cannot say it's userspace issue. |
| 16:19.15 | lawrence | thats why we're trying the 2nd kernel |
| 16:19.42 | lawrence | 1st stages in problem solving - eliminate eliminate eliminate... |
| 16:20.10 | lawrence | @jonathan_eyre - still around? |
| 16:20.22 | Jonathan_Eyre | Most definitely. |
| 16:20.42 | lawrence | ok, so any automounted partitions on the sd card you have from phoenix build |
| 16:21.14 | lawrence | there should be 1 smaller, and one larger partition i think |
| 16:21.23 | lawrence | the smaller one should be the boot partition |
| 16:21.25 | Jonathan_Eyre | II do have /media/0000-006f auto-mounted currently. |
| 16:21.31 | lawrence | do you see anything like that? |
| 16:21.32 | Jonathan_Eyre | It just says 7.7GB. |
| 16:21.56 | Jonathan_Eyre | I think I need to umount and then mount with specific parameters. |
| 16:22.01 | lawrence | can you list what partitions are on the card? |
| 16:22.04 | lawrence | mount |
| 16:22.05 | herdingcat | lawrence, failed again... |
| 16:22.09 | lawrence | see what it mounted it from |
| 16:22.17 | lawrence | then fdisk -l /dev/NAMEOFDEVICE |
| 16:22.38 | lawrence | eg if it mounted it as /dev/sdc1 for partition |

| 16:22.45 | lawrence | fdisk -l /dev/sdc |

| 16:26.20 | lawrence | of course the uart isn't going to know... |
| 16:26.26 | lawrence | doh! for all 3 of us |
| 16:26.29 | lawrence | hahaaha |
| 16:26.47 | herdingcat | totally agreed. |
| 16:26.48 | lawrence | mr cat |
| 16:26.51 | lawrence | i suggest this |
| 16:27.04 | lawrence | console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 |
| 16:27.19 | lawrence | so you have 2 consoles |
| 16:27.30 | lawrence | just in case you say set framebuffer |
| 16:27.34 | lawrence | and want to see bootup |
| 16:27.51 | lawrence | now we've sorted you out, go back to your testing uboot make sure that boots |
| 16:27.53 | mnemoc | the fbcon comes pretty late, but yes, it's good to have it |
| 16:27.56 | lawrence | then do your thang |
| 16:28.26 | herdingcat | okay, booting! |
| 16:28.35 | lawrence | i reckon this would make for a patch to the code @mnemoc |
| 16:28.53 | lawrence | eg we add in a default of 115200 if not passed on bootline to kernel in the driver |
| 16:28.54 | herdingcat | sh: cannot set terminal process group (-1): Inappropriate ioctl for device |
| 16:28.54 | herdingcat | sh: no job control in this shell |
| 16:28.54 | herdingcat | sh-4.2# |
| 16:28.56 | lawrence | n'es pas? |
| 16:29.17 | herdingcat | oh shit |
| 16:29.24 | herdingcat | I add that init=/bin/sh |
| 16:29.33 | lawrence | @herdingcat - i think you can work out from here, right? |
| 16:29.42 | lawrence | i can take a look at jonathan_eyre now |
| 16:29.53 | mnemoc | herdingcat: remove init= now, and let your distro do the job |

| 16:32.13 | lawrence | @herdingcat - remember that thing called git? |
| 16:32.14 | mnemoc | lawrence: hno has a repo called allwinner-info with REing stuff |
| 16:32.34 | lawrence | there is a 3.4 branch there |
| 16:32.42 | lawrence | pull that |
| 16:32.57 | mnemoc | herdingcat: same git repo, sunxi-3.4 branch. or stage/sunxi-3.4 if you want to help testing new commits |
| 16:33.06 | mnemoc | beware stage/* are rebased branches |
| 16:33.40 | herdingcat | git clone git://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi.git |
| 16:33.45 | mnemoc | yes |
| 16:33.59 | lawrence | @mnemoc - you think i/you should submit a patch for the uart code so it doesn't crap out if no param, and defaults to 115200 ? |
| 16:34.02 | herdingcat | I got clone from here but when I type git branch only one branch showed... |
| 16:34.09 | mnemoc | if the gfw doesn't let you, grab it from http://dl.linux-sunxi.org/amery/repo-dumps/ |
| 16:34.13 | lawrence | as herdingcat just found that as a bug |

| 16:36.44 | mnemoc | or _on_ |
| 16:36.48 | herdingcat | Thanks all... |
| 16:37.04 | mnemoc | herdingcat: start from sun4i_defconfig for linux or sun4i_crane_defconfig for android |
| 16:37.15 | lawrence | well, mnemoc, actually seeing as its a possessive noun and we were referring to location, its acceptable. |
| 16:37.24 | Jonathan_Eyre | mnemoc: Or it could mean that he represents the noun, as in, "Terry is marketing, I'm accounting." |
| 16:37.25 | lawrence | so i can lose the in |
| 16:37.40 | Jonathan_Eyre | It's shorthand and acceptable. |

| 16:54.16 | Workboot | I remember staring at this weird yellow light in Beijing, once, trying to figure out what it was. It looked like a British pedestrian crossing lamp, but it didn't blink. |
| 16:54.19 | Workboot | Turned out to be the sun. |
| 16:54.43 | mnemoc | o_O |
| 16:54.45 | lawrence | nah, bs |
| 16:54.56 | lawrence | you'd never be able to see that far in beijing |
| 16:54.57 | Workboot | Only worked that out after I'd walked a few steps and realised it was moving all wrong. |
| 16:55.05 | Workboot | It was a very clear day. |
| 16:55.15 | Workboot | Not long after the Olympics. |
| 16:55.53 | lawrence | back to less sarcasm mode - air was pretty good after the olympics |
| 16:56.08 | lawrence | as the factories were closed down |
| 16:56.16 | lawrence | beijing gets wicked sandstorms |
| 16:56.27 | lawrence | when those hit for real you can't see the sun |
| 16:56.31 | lawrence | or indeed 3 feet away |
| 16:56.56 | lawrence | mind you, even in shanghai you just get a grey sky most days |
| 16:57.01 | lawrence | rarely blue skies here |
| 16:57.02 | Workboot | Yeah, I've been there on other occasions too, and it was like that. |
| 16:57.13 | lawrence | gonna be blue skies soon though |
| 16:57.17 | lawrence | guarantee that |
| 16:57.23 | lawrence | as CNY cometh |
| 16:57.27 | lawrence | and all the factories close |
| 16:57.55 | lawrence | isn't it wonderful how the west exports its pollution costs here |
| 16:57.59 | Workboot | ... and that would explain the _other_ time I was in Beijing and could see blue sky. |
| 16:58.07 | Workboot | It was a couple of days after the end of CNY. |
| 16:58.33 | Workboot | lawrence: I like to think of it as outsourcing the lies. |
| 16:58.37 | lawrence | essentially all this production for american consumption isn't priced to include the environmental damage |
| 16:59.24 | lawrence | if that was, then american's would buy it from the next sucker^H country willing to ignore environmental costs for some $$ |
| 16:59.54 | lawrence | *insert any country for US above, but they're the largest culprit / consumer for china's case. |

| 17:14.19 | Turl | cubieSpain: where did you buy them? |

| 17:16.34 | cubieSpain | yes but they said: |
| 17:16.38 | cubieSpain | Hello David, sorry about the delays, I've just searched through Miniand.com and through 2Checkout (our payment gateway) and can't find any purchases under your email address. That order number isn't very familiar to me either, did you happen to get an order number in the format of ######-####-#### (Miniand order number) or ########## (2Checkout order number)? Did you use a different email address when you paid in 2Checkout? |
| 17:17.11 | Turl | maybe you bought in shopify then? |
| 17:17.56 | cubieSpain | maybe i bought in cubieboard? |

| 17:42.29 | Workboot | I don't entirely trust it. Look at 'FP EMULATION'; it flies away towards the end with a couple of configurations that make an enormous difference. |
| 17:43.14 | Workboot | I tested on an A9 device and found that the top-end was better populated, and all of them were -marm. |

| 17:46.58 | SquirrelCZECH | why it forces me to use make config? |
| 17:47.03 | SquirrelCZECH | instead of make menuconfig? |
| 17:47.24 | Workboot | You don't have all the build dependencies for menuconfig, maybe? |
| 17:47.54 | Workboot | Also, I think 'make config' deals with some issues that menuconfig does not. |

| 18:59.47 | lawrence | so probably hipboi won't start shipping till then at a guess |

| 20:44.16 | Jonathan_Eyre | I'm trying to partition my sdcard for uboot (forum.doozan.com/read.php?6,8481) and fdisk won't let me create a partition at sector 1. It says that the first sector is 2048. |
| 20:44.26 | Jonathan_Eyre | Why would it not let me fdisk to sector 1? |
| 20:44.58 | Jonathan_Eyre | I've deleted partitions with fdisk, and I dd if=/dev/zero into the sdcard, so I'm pretty sure there isn't anything on it. |
| 20:45.59 | Jonathan_Eyre | And I have no idea how to specify that I want a "type c" partition like the forum tells me to, but that can wait until fdisk works AT ALL. |
| 20:47.23 | Jonathan_Eyre | Holy [insert], I just saw that it mentions the 2048 in the tutorial... Back to the lab. |
