| 08:17.24 | pepere_ | hello there |
| 08:17.35 | pepere_ | I've recently bougth an hawkbaord |
| 08:17.52 | pepere_ | I'm trying to make it work with angstrom distribution |
| 08:18.03 | pepere_ | tftp nfs are working well |
| 08:18.25 | pepere_ | just i can make uImage genrated by open embedded work |
| 08:18.43 | pepere_ | kernel is uncompressing, and write "Starting kernel...." and stall there |
| 08:18.55 | pepere_ | works just ok with googlecode uImage |
| 08:18.55 | CHli | check friday's log :) |
| 08:19.09 | CHli | hi ! |
| 08:19.11 | CHli | :) |
| 08:19.15 | pepere_ | ha ok :) will check thx |
| 08:19.27 | CHli | you will be disappointed tho :) |
| 08:19.38 | pepere_ | ha... hoep not |
| 08:20.18 | CHli | well I have the same problem and I was talking to ventoneicapelli who also had the problem. |
| 08:20.22 | CHli | we haven't found a solution yet |
| 08:26.59 | pepere_ | ok readen friday laog |
| 08:27.06 | pepere_ | seems we've got the same issue :) |
| 08:27.10 | pepere_ | argh |
| 08:27.35 | pepere_ | yesterday i'ev tried narcissus and latest dev rbanch no way... |
| 08:27.42 | CHli | yeap :-( |
| 08:28.21 | pepere_ | I'm wondering if I will nto come back to patch 616f5f6d11a71401eb6dbd4585db972178b2b339 from oe.dev |
| 08:28.36 | pepere_ | (this is last patch referencing hawkbaord) |
| 08:29.23 | pepere_ | sorry: 61a1a74b0e71bb40c336cd974c933d3534849957 |
| 08:29.49 | pepere_ | it says: linux-davinci git: increase kernel partition to 4M for hawkboard |
| 08:29.51 | CHli | the one changing the kernel partition size ? |
| 08:30.05 | CHli | yeap that's a good approach, worth trying |
| 08:30.15 | pepere_ | i dont knwo , i hope the guys taht has commited this has tested with the hawkboard :) |
| 08:30.38 | CHli | probably, please try and keep me informed ! |
| 08:30.41 | pepere_ | i need to check how to do with git, i'm quite new with this monster.... |
| 08:30.42 | pepere_ | :) |
| 08:30.53 | pepere_ | yes sure |
| 08:31.54 | CHli | git checkout |
| 08:32.36 | CHli | git checkout 61a1a74b0e71bb40c336cd974c933d3534849957 |
| 08:33.35 | CHli | pepere_ stop searching :) |
| 08:33.48 | pepere_ | ha thx :) |
| 08:34.18 | pepere_ | i think in a few month i'll be git compliant |
| 08:35.07 | CHli | yeah, good luck with that :) |
| 08:35.22 | CHli | but to master git it takes more than that :) |
| 08:35.30 | pepere_ | just a quick question |
| 08:35.56 | pepere_ | to rebuild only the kernel do yu think there si somethign better than bitbake base-image? :) |
| 08:36.10 | CHli | bitbake virtual/kernel |
| 08:36.29 | pepere_ | thx |
| 08:40.45 | CHli | sanity.conf is not very happy with the revert :) |
| 08:40.51 | CHli | I have to dump my tmp :-| |
| 08:40.56 | pepere_ | yep |
| 08:40.57 | CHli | (well rename it for now) |
| 08:41.06 | pepere_ | this is what i did... |
| 08:41.16 | pepere_ | argh 638 task to be done.... |
| 08:41.42 | CHli | yeap and I'm building in VirtualBox so it takes... _some_ time :) |
| 08:41.42 | pepere_ | with my core2Ghz it will take... 4 hours :) |
| 08:41.59 | pepere_ | ha I abandonned virtual box |
| 08:42.03 | pepere_ | tooooo long |
| 08:42.12 | pepere_ | I dedicated a laptop only for that |
| 08:42.28 | pepere_ | i go 5 times faster now |
| 08:42.40 | pepere_ | still it is slow... |
| 08:43.19 | CHli | yeap it's slow :) |
| 08:43.27 | pepere_ | I'm quite sure I had managed to make oe work one month ago with head of oe.dev, so they must have put a broken patch in the alst commit |
| 08:43.45 | pepere_ | sadly i've erased my virtual machine.... |
| 08:43.52 | CHli | I only started 2 week ago |
| 08:43.52 | pepere_ | too stupid |
| 08:43.57 | pepere_ | ok :) |
| 08:44.15 | CHli | working with the Hawkboard i mean :) |
| 08:44.19 | pepere_ | yeah |
| 08:44.34 | pepere_ | next step for me is to use dsp_link module... |
| 08:45.00 | pepere_ | I'm trying to jsut do an fft via the dsp to estimate capabilities |
| 08:45.22 | pepere_ | I'm wondering if using google.com kernel I would be able to compiel somethign for it |
| 08:45.38 | pepere_ | i'm a bit lost with all these kernel, git brnaches, ti, oe ... |
| 08:45.46 | pepere_ | too much possibilities.... |
| 08:46.40 | CHli | There is a lot of source and examples and tere is a lot of documentation ! But there is a clear lack of pre-defined "standard" route. |
| 08:47.33 | pepere_ | i've seen that oe seems to support ti features (dsp_link etc...) so hope thos kernel will work... |
| 08:47.38 | pepere_ | recipes/ti/ |
| 08:48.04 | CHli | I'm pretty confident that 95% of OMAP-L138 buyers want to boot an up-to-date kernel with DSPLink and Linux Device Drivers available. And that's it. |
| 08:48.13 | CHli | yeah I cross my finger for that also :) |
| 08:48.21 | pepere_ | yes exactly :) |
| 08:48.41 | pepere_ | just abooting linux with dsp_link, and all drivers ok ;) |
| 08:49.58 | CHli | Do you have a good understanding on how the board boots ? I'm a bit lost with what roles have the AIF files and the UBL. |
| 08:50.13 | pepere_ | well from what I unserstood: |
| 08:50.26 | pepere_ | first board boot with ubl |
| 08:50.32 | pepere_ | then it launch uboot |
| 08:50.37 | pepere_ | then the linux kenrel |
| 08:51.02 | pepere_ | i would recomment a lot using tftp + nfs method |
| 08:51.16 | pepere_ | once it is working you gain a lot of time |
| 08:51.40 | pepere_ | are suing different method? |
| 08:51.49 | CHli | Sorry i mentionned AIF but it's AIS I think. |
| 08:52.05 | pepere_ | yes AIS |
| 08:52.22 | pepere_ | nto sure what AIS rewite if it uboot or ubl |
| 08:52.36 | pepere_ | I wondered taht yesterday :) |
| 08:52.50 | CHli | yeah that's basically my problem :) |
| 08:52.59 | pepere_ | I think it rewrites ubl |
| 08:53.14 | pepere_ | becasue then it laods via serial port the uboot |
| 08:53.29 | pepere_ | (if i remind well how I did) |
| 08:53.50 | CHli | I thought the serial boot was an internal ROM feature. |
| 08:54.18 | pepere_ | ha yes |
| 08:54.22 | CHli | did you try to generate your own u-boot image and boot from it ? |
| 08:54.24 | pepere_ | must be ubl then taht has this feature |
| 08:54.29 | pepere_ | yes |
| 08:54.37 | pepere_ | i've tried everything :) |
| 08:54.42 | CHli | did it work ? |
| 08:54.51 | pepere_ | I think so |
| 08:54.55 | CHli | hmmf |
| 08:55.23 | CHli | I followed the tutorial on elinux.org/hawkboard without sucess when using my own u-boot image. |
| 08:56.32 | pepere_ | I remember I managed to do it but when looking at my console log currently i got: |
| 08:56.39 | pepere_ | Boot 2009.01-dirty (Nov 26 2009 - 02:15:00) |
| 08:56.42 | pepere_ | so... |
| 08:56.58 | pepere_ | I 've tried so much things |
| 08:57.01 | pepere_ | ... |
| 08:57.37 | pepere_ | I remenber that i managed to put a 2010 version but reverted back to something etsted by everybody, not to cumulate bugs.... |
| 09:00.20 | CHli | ok, at least I know it's somehow possible :) |
| 09:15.08 | CHli | were you generating your u-boot image with OE ? |
| 09:15.46 | CHli | because in the tutorial they talk about a ELF format u-boot. I don't think the u-boot generated by OE is in ELF format. |
| 09:16.09 | pepere_ | no I used uboot git |
| 09:16.11 | CHli | at least neither file or objdump give me any information about the u-boot file format |
| 09:16.27 | CHli | generated from OE. |
| 09:16.36 | pepere_ | nop |
| 09:16.42 | CHli | and you build with Code Sourcery installed separatly ? |
| 09:16.42 | pepere_ | directly form uboot site |
| 09:16.45 | pepere_ | yes |
| 09:17.06 | CHli | ok, well I would like to have only on cross compile env :) |
| 09:17.10 | CHli | one |
| 09:17.21 | pepere_ | yeah after I discovered oe |
| 09:17.26 | pepere_ | so now after dsp_link |
| 09:17.28 | CHli | :) |
| 09:17.34 | pepere_ | I will try to build uboot with oe |
| 09:17.39 | pepere_ | I think oe is a good base |
| 09:19.18 | pepere_ | one thing I wondered this night |
| 09:19.38 | pepere_ | I wondered i we do not forget something when loading oe kernel |
| 09:19.51 | pepere_ | like for exampel if a ramdisk is not mandatory for ti |
| 09:19.54 | pepere_ | it |
| 09:20.23 | pepere_ | (i do not have played with early_printk so i don't know where it crash bit can it be a possibility? |
| 09:20.35 | CHli | hmm interesting, I just went in u-boot build folder in OE, and there is a u-boot.bin (the one that is in the final image folder) and a u-boot file that is in ELF format for ARM :) |
| 09:20.52 | CHli | I don't see why a RAMDISK would be mandatory. |
| 09:21.09 | CHli | This is just one way to boot linux. I want it MY way :) |
| 09:21.39 | pepere_ | for uboot, i think you have to pass it trhough AIS tool no? |
| 09:21.50 | pepere_ | to configure ram freq etc... |
| 09:21.58 | pepere_ | Not sure .bon acn be used directly |
| 09:22.49 | CHli | yes you have to pass the u-boot image through AISgen. |
| 09:23.07 | CHli | But the generated image didn't work before, but I think this was because I had the wrong u-boot image file |
| 09:23.16 | pepere_ | ha ok |
| 09:23.53 | pepere_ | also i remember the first time i used serial link, i thought it was not workinh (upload) ecause you have to wait at least 10minutes to upload the full image... :) |
| 09:24.17 | CHli | I will try again now, but first I have to strip the debug symbols from that u-boot image, it's way too big (650K) |
| 09:24.36 | pepere_ | ha ! good idea :) |
| 09:24.49 | pepere_ | tell me size when done, it could explain my 10minutes |
| 09:24.53 | pepere_ | ... |
| 09:28.06 | CHli | 644KB->236KB |
| 09:29.35 | pepere_ | then 10min -> 3min :) |
| 09:44.16 | *** join/#hawkboard ventoneicapelli (~mpapini@94.166.43.21) |
| 09:44.26 | ventoneicapelli | Hi all |
| 09:45.17 | ventoneicapelli | Hi CHli, I was quite happy this morning, I thought I found a a problem in the patch used in OE for hawkboard... |
| 09:45.24 | pepere_ | !!! |
| 09:45.27 | pepere_ | hello |
| 09:45.33 | pepere_ | interesting! |
| 09:45.36 | ventoneicapelli | I think the problem exists |
| 09:45.41 | ventoneicapelli | hai pepere |
| 09:45.56 | ventoneicapelli | hi pepere_ |
| 09:46.13 | pepere_ | I'm currently rebuilding an old patch to hope find th ebug |
| 09:46.24 | pepere_ | if you found something you are more than welcoem !!! :) |
| 09:46.27 | ventoneicapelli | but patching the patch is not resolving... |
| 09:46.32 | pepere_ | arf :) |
| 09:47.14 | pepere_ | currently we are resatrting from 61a1a74b0e71bb40c336cd974c933d3534849957 |
| 09:47.29 | pepere_ | just to check if this version was working with hawkbaord |
| 09:47.36 | ventoneicapelli | ok |
| 09:47.43 | pepere_ | task 538 of 638 |
| 09:48.21 | ventoneicapelli | I found a problem in kernel configuration freezing the kernel give me a warning |
| 09:48.39 | ventoneicapelli | just a moment I'm going to copy the log... |

| 09:50.16 | ventoneicapelli | [ Â Â 0.270000] Â Disable one of them. |
| 09:50.40 | pepere_ | yeah I had also this on google code kernel i think |
| 09:50.47 | pepere_ | I don't hink this is my issue |
| 09:50.55 | ventoneicapelli | ...probably not |
| 09:51.18 | pepere_ | since with uImage created with oe, i freeze at "Starting kernel...".... |
| 09:51.28 | ventoneicapelli | I start thinking the best is to use hawkboard "standard" kernel... |
| 09:51.40 | ventoneicapelli | as CHli suggests me |
| 09:51.50 | pepere_ | if you managed to get tehse log, then you have goen much farther then us no? |
| 09:51.55 | ventoneicapelli | you have to use earlyprintk... |
| 09:52.02 | pepere_ | yep staandard kernel work perfectly |
| 09:52.07 | pepere_ | for me |
| 09:52.12 | pepere_ | just I want to use oe |
| 09:52.29 | pepere_ | and to get an unified dev env. |
| 09:52.33 | CHli | Hello :) |
| 09:52.39 | ventoneicapelli | Hi CHli |
| 09:52.40 | pepere_ | but perhaps I will used oe with goolgecode kernel.... |
| 09:53.23 | ventoneicapelli | yes, pepere_, is what I start thinking after lot of fails... |
| 09:53.27 | ventoneicapelli | collected... |
| 09:54.30 | ventoneicapelli | as CHli explains me, if you add 'earlyprintk=serial,ttyS2,115200n8' |
| 09:55.03 | pepere_ | ha yes will add this once i get my new kernel compiled |
| 09:55.05 | ventoneicapelli | in your bootargs you can see some kernel messages |
| 09:55.40 | ventoneicapelli | my OE kernel, and CHli's one, stops at |
| 09:55.42 | ventoneicapelli | [ Â Â 0.350000] Switching to clocksource timer0_1 |
| 09:55.53 | ventoneicapelli | last line |

| 09:56.58 | ventoneicapelli | I removed it but...kernel is still freezing....and I get the same last line... |
| 09:59.05 | pepere_ | it wouls be intersting to see if we have such switching message with google code kernel too |
| 09:59.24 | pepere_ | '"switchg clock source" |
| 10:00.08 | CHli | yes there is one |
| 10:00.29 | CHli | I have a dmesg of all my booting kernel |

| 11:33.50 | ventoneicapelli | CHli, you can boot your kernel once? |
| 11:34.03 | ventoneicapelli | the one coming from OE/Angstrom... |
| 11:34.04 | CHli | yeah but that was 10 days ago... |
| 11:34.06 | CHli | yes |
| 11:34.12 | ventoneicapelli | uh |
| 11:34.17 | ventoneicapelli | 10 days ago |
| 11:34.24 | CHli | and I still had the ramdisk in the way |
| 11:34.34 | ventoneicapelli | I see |
| 11:35.34 | ventoneicapelli | great... |
| 11:35.42 | CHli | but since I deleted the Ramdisk and tried to boot with noinitrd. And since it stopped working. |
| 11:36.54 | ventoneicapelli | did you compare the kernel's configuration with the 'actual' (head of git openembedded repo) used... |
| 11:36.54 | ventoneicapelli | ? |
| 11:37.28 | ventoneicapelli | I tried to use 2acf935c01... of arago |
| 11:37.49 | ventoneicapelli | I've just finished to build...and I'm going to try |
| 11:38.07 | ventoneicapelli | CHli, I have a couple of question regarding OE... |
| 11:39.14 | ventoneicapelli | the rootfs generate from OE/Angostrom is the one in deploy/glibc/images... |
| 11:39.21 | CHli | I think I compared them briefly to see if anything would raise a flag :) |
| 11:39.29 | CHli | yeap |
| 11:39.37 | CHli | jffs2 |
| 11:39.40 | ventoneicapelli | (ok thank you) Angstrom-base-image-glibc.... |
| 11:40.17 | *** join/#hawkboard virals (~Viral_Sac@59.97.1.198) |
| 11:40.18 | ventoneicapelli | if I use this rootfs with hawkboard's default kernel...after booting, mounting rootfs (on nfs.).. |
| 11:40.27 | ventoneicapelli | my system freezed... |
| 11:40.59 | ventoneicapelli | when it tries to configure packages... |
| 11:41.07 | pepere_lunch | if you use nfs methid than you should untat image.tar.gz into /nfsroot |
| 11:41.13 | CHli | exactly pepere_lunch :) |
| 11:41.16 | pepere_lunch | untar |
| 11:41.20 | pepere_lunch | yeah |
| 11:41.25 | pepere_lunch | i need to go to lunch |
| 11:41.27 | pepere_lunch | :) |
| 11:41.33 | pepere_lunch | i go for real now |
| 11:41.33 | ventoneicapelli | (yes, pepere I did)..but, I use the rootfs coming from narcissus |
| 11:41.39 | pepere_lunch | ha ok |
| 11:41.40 | ventoneicapelli | (online compliled) |
| 11:41.55 | ventoneicapelli | then the system boots correctly... |
| 11:42.14 | CHli | I booted without problem the google code kernel with an angstrom rootfs I generated an mounted on nfs |
| 11:42.32 | CHli | and |
| 11:42.37 | ventoneicapelli | what task did you ask to build to bitbake? |
| 11:42.44 | CHli | minimal-image |
| 11:42.45 | ventoneicapelli | task-base? console-image? |
| 11:42.48 | ventoneicapelli | minimal-image... |
| 11:42.49 | ventoneicapelli | ok |
| 11:42.55 | ventoneicapelli | I will give a try |
| 11:43.03 | CHli | I had a QA problem when building console-image |
| 11:43.15 | CHli | it would fail at the end with the PAM modules |
| 11:43.29 | CHli | and some others, so I decided to revert to the more basic minimal-image |
| 11:43.42 | ventoneicapelli | (probably the problem is in the kernel) if I look to my rootfs (compiled with OE) and the one from narcissus |
| 11:43.59 | ventoneicapelli | I found: in my root linuxrc (symlink to busybox) |
| 11:44.13 | ventoneicapelli | in narcissus's rootfs no linuxrc... |
| 11:45.04 | ventoneicapelli | do you know if they (@narcissus) are using a special branch or .dev one? |
| 11:45.57 | ventoneicapelli | so, CHli, you confirm that I have only to take Angstrom-base-image-glibc.... and put in my root |
| 11:46.05 | ventoneicapelli | without any other operations... |
| 11:46.14 | ventoneicapelli | I will try with minimal-image... |
| 11:47.16 | ventoneicapelli | and my brand new kernel first, then with the 'working' one... |
| 11:48.39 | ventoneicapelli | did anybody try to modify kernel configuration to use the one from google.code ? |
| 11:48.42 | ventoneicapelli | the kernel configuration recipe, I mean |
| 11:48.46 | CHli | you have to untar the .tar (EG : Angstrom-minimalist-image-glibc-ipk-2010.4-test-20100507-hawkboard.rootfs.tar) in your nfsroot |
| 11:49.04 | CHli | and boot the kernel with the nfsroot commands |
| 11:49.08 | ventoneicapelli | ok, CHli perfect. That's what I'm doing... |
| 11:49.34 | ventoneicapelli | I'm going to try with minimal-image... |
| 11:49.49 | ventoneicapelli | and give you my feedback, thank you for your help CHli |
| 11:55.53 | pepere_lunch | ok guys |
| 11:56.01 | pepere_lunch | my new kernel is (finally) ready |
| 11:56.07 | pepere_lunch | i'll try it now :) |
| 12:00.03 | CHli | nice ! :) You imagine that with VirtualBox I'm not quite done yet :) |
| 12:00.16 | pepere_lunch | ... |
| 12:00.19 | pepere_lunch | not working |
| 12:00.22 | pepere_lunch | :( |
| 12:00.31 | pepere_lunch | I must definitively miss something... |
| 12:00.35 | CHli | :( |
| 12:00.46 | pepere_lunch | ok i 'll do one last try going one patch back |
| 12:00.54 | Gaston|Home | Has anyone tried bitbaking gstreamer-ti package with latest oe? It fails horribly for me. Seems there is something bad in the staging process of ti-cgt6x .... |
| 12:01.08 | CHli | we are not there yet :) |
| 12:01.13 | Gaston|Home | I posted some description in #gst_ti |
| 12:01.16 | CHli | First we need a kernel/filesystem |
| 12:01.21 | Gaston|Home | :) |
| 12:01.26 | CHli | What are you running on your board ? |
| 12:02.47 | CHli | I mean what kernel ? |
| 12:02.53 | ventoneicapelli | :-( not working kernel... |
| 12:02.55 | CHli | Gaston|Home ? |
| 12:02.57 | Gaston|Home | nothing, unless i can get built what I want to run in the end. I have seen all the trouble of getting images loaded into NAND and booting kernels off MMC/USB |
| 12:03.34 | Gaston|Home | So I prefer to get everything built correctly off line and then push the worries in front |
| 12:03.38 | ventoneicapelli | Gaston|Home, we all have problem in booting kernel generated from OE... |
| 12:04.39 | Gaston|Home | auize and eFfeM_work seems to be skilled in that area |
| 12:05.22 | pepere_lunch | if you have time can you just give us the kernel boot line of your uboot? |
| 12:05.36 | ventoneicapelli | Ok, we will try to ask them directly... |
| 12:06.06 | ventoneicapelli | to auize and eFfeM_work |
| 12:07.45 | Gaston|Home | I'd rather skip over these hardware abstraction issues and get something that don't need tftp to work straight away |
| 12:09.04 | Gaston|Home | http://www.ubuilt-bots.com/?q=node/1164 |
| 12:09.11 | ventoneicapelli | I'm a little bit puzzled... |
| 12:09.23 | ventoneicapelli | Gaston|Home, let me check... |
| 12:11.19 | Gaston|Home | I havent played with that at all, but there seem to be issues regarding NAND being block based and the kernel size. So some calculation is needed to get the addresses right. |
| 12:13.10 | pepere_lunch | ok you mean you managed to boot your kernel with latest oe branch dev, but tftp'ing the uImage, than writing it to annd and putting the FS on mmc? |
| 12:13.46 | Gaston|Home | I havent even unpacked my hawkboard. |
| 12:13.59 | pepere_lunch | ha ok :) |
| 12:13.59 | Gaston|Home | Its been sitting cold since I got it |
| 12:14.37 | Gaston|Home | I am reading all posts on the hawkboard-group and monitors this and a few other channels |
| 12:15.35 | Gaston|Home | I try to encourage people that succeed in doing things to document it and post it somewhere |
| 12:18.14 | CHli | yeah I saw that blog entry, it doesn't say much. |
| 12:19.55 | Gaston|Home | It does boot a Narcissus generated kernel. Isnt that what you wanted? |
| 12:21.33 | CHli | yeah :) But since he hasn't got any problem it doesn't help :) |
| 12:22.23 | ventoneicapelli | ... |
| 12:22.46 | CHli | Oh I just was the files he posted he also... |
| 12:22.51 | CHli | I'll have a look. |
| 12:22.54 | CHli | Thanks Gaston|Home |
| 12:23.06 | CHli | I missed the files the first time I read |
| 12:23.54 | CHli | was = saw |
| 12:24.16 | CHli | Oh I just was the files he posted he also... => Oh I just saw the files he posted also... |
| 12:24.48 | ventoneicapelli | sorry, but I don't understand really... |
| 12:25.08 | ventoneicapelli | I read the blog entry...but I found no solution to my problem... |
| 12:26.45 | *** join/#hawkboard virals (~Viral_Sac@59.97.0.38) |
| 12:30.24 | CHli | no there is no solution |
| 12:30.37 | CHli | it's just a guy who had no problem it seems |
| 12:30.45 | CHli | but he posted the image he used |
| 12:31.55 | ventoneicapelli | ok, I confirm |
| 12:32.43 | ventoneicapelli | probably he's using an old working commit of OE .dev |
| 12:38.05 | Gaston|Home | If I read the log file for this channel, will there be a description to both of your problems? |
| 12:39.07 | CHli | Check friday's log. All of us ( ventoneicapelli, pepere_ and I) have the same problem. |
| 12:40.14 | ventoneicapelli | we all have a _not_ working OE/Angstrom generated kernel... |
| 12:41.09 | ventoneicapelli | I tried to remove a warning for a misconfiguration...I removed that, but the problem remains |
| 12:41.26 | ventoneicapelli | ...kernel stucks... |
| 12:41.52 | pepere_ | in fact the uImage genereated is sent via tftp, the kernel uncompress and then we got a message "Starting Kernel..." and nothing more... |
| 12:42.40 | ventoneicapelli | or if you activate earlyprintk, as CHli suggested, ... |
| 12:42.58 | ventoneicapelli | you have more infos |
| 12:43.17 | ventoneicapelli | if you want to know I can send you my log... |
| 12:43.28 | ventoneicapelli | any clue? |
| 12:43.28 | CHli | yeah it's like if earlyprintk was preventing a deadlock to happen :-| |
| 12:44.07 | pepere_ | here are my uboot params to boot the kernels: bootcmd=tftp c0700000 uImage; bootm c0700000 |
| 12:44.18 | ventoneicapelli | CHli, from your experience... |
| 12:44.21 | pepere_ | <PROTECTED> |
| 12:45.13 | pepere_ | Chli, ventoneicapelli are you booting on NFS? |
| 12:45.40 | pepere_ | (I mean the root fs) |
| 12:45.42 | CHli | yeah, but that's not what I want ultimately |
| 12:45.48 | CHli | I want to boot on jffs2 on nand :) |
| 12:45.57 | CHli | but one step after the other :) |
| 12:46.19 | ventoneicapelli | (papere_: yes) with OE I mean. Is it easy to merge an external (provided by themself) kernel? |
| 12:46.20 | pepere_ | ok so you've got the same bug when flashing on jffs2 so it does not come from NFS specifically |
| 12:46.46 | pepere_ | ventone: I don't know, I'm trying currently :) |
| 12:46.58 | ventoneicapelli | me too I want to boot on jffs2 on nand. I will try this afternoon trying to parallelizing my work... |
| 12:47.39 | CHli | pepere_, I haven't tried the boot on nand yet. |
| 12:47.55 | pepere_ | ok |
| 12:47.56 | ventoneicapelli | the question about OE was for CHli, and for everyone can give me any ads... |
| 12:49.24 | CHli | @ventoneicapelli, adding a custom kernel in OE is not too difficult. But it's also not a real pleasure :) But there are enough kernel recipes to learn from :) |
| 12:50.02 | ventoneicapelli | CHli, yes. I had a look to...that's why I asked..:-) |
| 12:50.10 | ventoneicapelli | I will try to |
| 12:50.59 | ventoneicapelli | but in first step or I will do by myself (I have compiled different version using hawkboard source, and all of them are working) |
| 12:51.31 | ventoneicapelli | so next step I want to use a kernel on nand |
| 12:51.47 | ventoneicapelli | I would like to use ubifs.. |
| 12:52.41 | ventoneicapelli | but u-boot coming from hawkboard seems to support jffs2... |
| 12:53.34 | ventoneicapelli | it's ok for now, but I want (in the next future) to have a customized u-boot... |
| 13:13.44 | *** join/#hawkboard virals (~Viral_Sac@122.166.2.35) |
| 13:27.30 | CHli | I don't think u-boot needs to know anything about the filesystem ? |
| 13:27.55 | CHli | (I also want to jump to ubi/ubifs later) |
| 13:30.45 | Gaston|Home | http://processors.wiki.ti.com/index.php/Booting_Linux_kernel_using_U-Boot |
| 13:36.28 | Gaston|Home | http://www.denx.de/wiki/DULG/Manual |
| 13:37.02 | ventoneicapelli | CHli, you're right |
| 13:37.09 | ventoneicapelli | (thx Gaston|Home) |
| 13:37.36 | ventoneicapelli | but I would like to have u-boot with mtd support... |
| 13:38.20 | pepere_ | CHli i'm wondering if newer kernel do not _need_ an initial ramdisk... |
| 13:38.39 | pepere_ | it could explain that whatever version we build the kernel stop booting... |
| 13:39.35 | CHli | Well if you can find any information that support that I will agree with you :) |

| 15:01.02 | CHli | *follow |
| 15:04.52 | pepere_ | yep |
| 15:04.57 | pepere_ | under windows and linux |
| 15:05.20 | pepere_ | but it has changed since last time, not checked if instruction have changed |
| 15:06.26 | pepere_ | it does not work for you? |
| 15:08.45 | pepere_ | I'm sure that with sources provided with google code I've managed to make it work |
| 15:09.47 | CHli | yeah the AISGEN software slightly changed |
| 15:10.05 | CHli | but I can't make it to work :( |
| 15:10.32 | ventoneicapelli | CHli, I never use for now... |
| 15:13.10 | *** join/#hawkboard wolfspraul (~wolfsprau@elphelut.fttp.xmission.com) |
| 15:16.37 | pepere_ | I ve jsut checked |
| 15:16.40 | pepere_ | I use 1.5 |
| 15:17.03 | CHli | yeap same here |
| 15:17.04 | pepere_ | if under windows, be sure to run as administrator... (I has this issue) |
| 15:17.11 | pepere_ | and then check on ly configure pll |
| 15:17.21 | pepere_ | you should see the same as elinux |
| 15:18.05 | pepere_ | for version not sure which to chosse DK002? or DK006 ? don't remember, on elinux seems to be DK002 |
| 15:18.46 | CHli | you have to check the first bytes of the ROM by reading it's address with CCS to figure out what version you have. |
| 15:18.57 | pepere_ | ha ok thx :) |
| 15:18.58 | CHli | mine is DK002 (the old version) |
| 15:19.52 | CHli | There is an error in the documentation about that I think. |
| 15:20.28 | pepere_ | I've put boot mode uart |
| 15:21.23 | CHli | The switch on the hawkboard is very poor. It's sometime not working. |
| 15:21.53 | pepere_ | :) |
| 15:21.56 | pepere_ | i remember now |
| 15:22.10 | pepere_ | boot first via uart with uboot modified for uart |
| 15:22.16 | pepere_ | then once you managed to boot |
| 15:22.22 | pepere_ | you tftp the nand one |
| 15:22.25 | pepere_ | and flash it.... |
| 15:22.29 | pepere_ | simple isn't it? |
| 15:22.31 | pepere_ | :D |
| 15:22.52 | CHli | In sprab41b : they say : "Enter the address of the beginning of the ROM, 0xFFFD0000, at the top of the memory window." (that's to read the ROM version) |
| 15:24.37 | pepere_ | you mean for DK002 ou DK006? |
| 15:24.40 | pepere_ | ok |
| 15:25.25 | CHli | and I think the correct address is : 0x00700000 |
| 15:25.45 | CHli | yes to find out what version to use |
| 15:26.00 | pepere_ | 0xc0700000 |
| 15:26.33 | pepere_ | I need to go, se you later |
| 15:26.55 | CHli | I will be away now, see you tomorrow. |
| 15:27.03 | CHli | thanks for sharing :) |
| 15:32.34 | ventoneicapelli | I'm still having problem with OE rootfs...I tried with minimal-image... |
| 15:33.58 | ventoneicapelli | with default kernel (form hawkboard). System starts but it stops after init... |
| 15:34.09 | ventoneicapelli | no prompt was diplayed.... |
| 15:34.46 | ventoneicapelli | if I use narcissus rootfs everything seems to work fine... |
| 15:35.10 | ventoneicapelli | (I got some errors but prompt was displayed...) |
| 15:37.40 | ventoneicapelli | this is my log http://pastebin.com/09Lcff7v |
| 15:37.46 | ventoneicapelli | anyone can help me |
