08:04.37pepere_hi all
08:14.35CHlihi pepere_
08:14.47CHliI have a lot of things to try now...
08:15.00pepere_good
08:15.20pepere_this early morning I've tried booting on mmc with same result -> so does not come from nfs...
08:15.35CHliI send an email to OE-dev mailiing list, Koen is helping me.
08:15.41pepere_today i'm working on other subject, but if you find something plese share :)
08:15.47pepere_ha good!
08:16.03CHliand did you see the hawkboard mailing group ? Someone also giving a few advices.
08:16.13pepere_ha no will check now
08:16.14CHliSomeone who has the same problem and solved it apparently
08:16.37CHlibut my first priority is to have my own U-BOOT working (build with OE)
08:16.46CHliand then to have a kernel booting
08:16.53CHliI want to have total control over the system.
08:19.26pepere_ok
08:19.39pepere_I've seen the mail from the guy with ubuntu nfs
08:19.53pepere_i've tryied yesterday night without success...
08:20.01pepere_(and stock kernel works so...)
08:20.04pepere_:/
08:20.14pepere_will double check tonight
08:20.31pepere_keep me updated on your progress, i will check the forul from time to time
08:20.35pepere_see you later
08:22.44CHliI'm more and more convinced it's some deadlock happening :-| That's why adding some extra parameters sometime fixes it, partially or completely :-|

11:19.13Gaston|HomeGuys I built the whole OE from scratch and have no problems booting the kernel. I am using loady to transfer the kernel to memory. I then erase segment of nand  and flash it.
11:19.47Gaston|HomeI am using the original uboot, since until it can boot from mmc/usb I see no reason to change.
11:21.28Gaston|HomeHowever there are a few things to watch out for. When handling the produced uImage make sure you use the correct length of your new kernel.
11:21.55Gaston|Homeand when you flash it round up to complete sector length

12:54.03eFfeM_worki haven't booted too recently, but think I did not have problems with tftp and nfs (original u-boot)
12:54.23eFfeM_workcan't verify that today, but can try to reproduce it tomorrow evening

14:32.33CHlithat would be great eFfeM_work, and if someone could do a "nand erase" after having booted through uart and give the command line he used from there to get to a booting kernel that would be fantastic. :D
14:33.06CHliI just succeeded in booting from UART using an AIS image I generate with the OE U-Boot.
14:33.40CHliBut I used the command line tool and an INI file to generate the AIS image.
14:33.58CHliThe AISGen GUI tool doesn't produce any good result in my case. I have to study the difference.
14:37.11Gaston|TrvlCHli: , take a look on the hawkboard group, I think I just did exactly that for serial transfer
14:41.55CHliThanks Gaston|Trvl, I will have a look at that.

14:55.48pazzodalegareHi all
14:56.33khasimhi
14:59.34pazzodalegaredoes anybody find how to make openembedded (branch org.openembedded.dev) works for hawkboard? I'm still obtaining a not working kernel.
15:01.51khasimare you looking for a filesystem or a kernel image ?
15:02.25khasimbest thing to use for FS is http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/narcissus/
15:06.07pazzodalegaredear khasim
15:06.16pazzodalegareI'm looking for a good distribution
15:07.07pazzodalegareif I use the kernel from narcissus I have the same problem as I I have from my local openembedded...
15:08.07pazzodalegarenow I'm trying to change something in the host, someone said he compiles OE for hawkboard with no problem (i.e. kernel boots, filesytem works...)
15:09.26pazzodalegareI can boot my hawkboard with uImage_v1 (from google.code.com) and I can build my kernels (in various configurations) using linux_omap1.tar.gz (again from google code)
15:09.52pazzodalegarewith that kerne can boot from nfs, nand with and withoud fs, ..
15:10.01pazzodalegare(withoud=without)
15:10.17pazzodalegareso my problem is what's wrong with my OE?
15:10.31pazzodalegarewhat's wrong with narcissus kernel?
15:10.43pazzodalegarenobody knows...
15:12.28pazzodalegarethis is my post on hawkboard's group http://groups.google.com/group/hawkboard/browse_thread/thread/a1830c69f89296d2
15:13.23pazzodalegareCHli has the same problem, so I start thinking that there is a regression in OE for hawkbord machine
15:16.40Gaston|TrvlI started from scratch a couple of days ago and updated one last time yesterday
15:17.13Gaston|TrvlI will post my local.config and image recipe I used to build my kernel
15:17.46Gaston|TrvlI will also upload the kernel and rootfs
15:17.52Gaston|Trvljust a sec
15:18.28pazzodalegarethank you Gaston|Trvl

15:26.49Gaston|HomeIf I get some more time later tonight I will clean upp my notes and post them
15:27.43Gaston|HomeI have notes from installing virtual 9.04 all the way to complete hawkboard
15:28.00Gaston|HomeI doubt it will get done tonight, but who knows
15:29.37Gaston|HomeCHli and pazzodalegare : http://www.lysator.liu.se/~jonma/Hawkboard/
15:29.59Gaston|HomeThis will be deleted in a couple of days
15:36.51pazzodalegareThanks you very much Gaston|Home!
15:37.15*** join/#hawkboard file (~file@asterisk/developer-and-muffin-lover/file)
15:37.27pazzodalegareso, you're using ubuntu 9.04 as host system
15:37.44Gaston|Homeyes, its up to 9.10 now
15:37.48pazzodalegareI'm using ubuntu 10.04 and now I'm trying with 9.10...
15:37.50Gaston|Homebut it started as 9.04
15:37.55pazzodalegareI'm compiling..
15:38.34Gaston|Homelet me show you what I did to the Ubuntu by following others advice
15:40.50Gaston|Homeedit /etc/sysctl.conf make sure "set vm.mmap_min_addr = 0" is in there
15:40.57pazzodalegareok
15:40.57Gaston|Home(requires reboot)
15:41.18Gaston|Home"ls -la /bin/sh"
15:41.51Gaston|Homemake sure bash is used for sh and not dash if so
15:41.51Gaston|Homesudo dpkg-reconfigure dash
15:41.51pazzodalegareok I did
15:41.51Gaston|Homeget the rest of required tools to build see:
15:41.54Gaston|Homehttp://wiki.openembedded.net/index.php/OEandYourDistro#Ubuntu
15:42.05Gaston|Homesudo apt-get install sed wget cvs subversion git-core coreutils unzip texi2html texinfo libsdl1.2-dev docbook-utils gawk python-pysqlite2 diffstat help2man make gcc build-essential g++ chrpath
15:42.19Gaston|Homechrpath is missing in the wiki I believe
15:42.32pazzodalegareI added by myself
15:42.39Gaston|Homeand sudo apt install psyco-python
15:42.48pazzodalegareok
15:42.57Gaston|Homein order to get sound working on Ubuntu 9.10
15:42.57Gaston|Homein /etc/pulse/default.pa change
15:42.58Gaston|Homeload-module module-udev-detect to
15:42.58Gaston|Homeload-module module-udev-detect tsched=0
15:43.09pazzodalegareUh
15:43.27pazzodalegareI have to do this step
15:43.30Gaston|Homenope
15:43.43Gaston|HomeI'm copying stuff from my notes, sorry ;)
15:44.14Gaston|HomeDownload ti_cgt_c6000_6.1.9_setup_linux_x86.bin
15:44.24pazzodalegarewhat's that?
15:44.36pazzodalegareti_cgt_c6000?
15:44.39Gaston|Home^-- needed to compile all dsp-side stuff
15:44.45pazzodalegarewhere I can get it?
15:44.47pazzodalegareok
15:44.52pazzodalegarethank you
15:45.35Gaston|Homethen get the oebb.sh
15:45.44Gaston|Homeand off you should be able to go
15:46.08Gaston|HomeI started with console-image, which takes the whole night
15:47.03pazzodalegareoebb.sh?
15:47.08Gaston|Homethen I ran my Gaston-DSP-TI but without the gstreamer-ti \ line
15:47.28Gaston|Homeoebb.sh sets up your OE-environment
15:48.18pazzodalegareI got source-me.txt from angstrom, could you please indicate where oebb.sh is? openembedded website?
15:53.57Gaston|Homehttp://gitorious.org/angstrom/angstrom-setup-scripts
15:54.20Gaston|Homeits referenced from http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/building-angstrom
15:54.35Gaston|Homelike second paragraph
16:01.40pazzodalegarethank you again Gastom|Home. I start checking every step!
16:02.29Gaston|Homestart using my uImage and see if it works
16:03.29Gaston|HomeThere are a couple of steps missing when it comes to formatting SD-card and extracting rootfs to it
16:03.54Gaston|Homebut the uImage should be straightforward using ymodem
16:04.06Gaston|Homeonly takes a few minutes to get it over
16:07.18*** join/#hawkboard khasim (~a0393720@192.163.20.231)
16:16.57pazzodalegareyes I'm downloading everything
16:17.14pazzodalegarebut I have a slow connection at the moment
16:17.21pazzodalegareI will try your Image
16:17.32pazzodalegarein a few minutes
16:26.29pazzodalegareI got a Bad Data CRC from your image
16:26.43pazzodalegareI start downloading again...
16:31.46pazzodalegare...
16:32.07pazzodalegareGaston|Home, your uImage won't boot on my hawkboard!
16:32.21pazzodalegareStarting kernel ....
16:32.26pazzodalegareand freezed system
16:32.47pazzodalegarebut, if I use uImage_v1 then my board boots....
16:32.52pazzodalegareany clue?
16:37.39pazzodalegareI activated (after first failing boot) earlyprintk
16:39.44pazzodalegaresee what happened at http://pastebin.com/gsWYsRS9
16:40.18pazzodalegarethe same I got
16:41.08pazzodalegarehttp://pastebin.com/n2aM3Vc3
16:41.18pazzodalegareso probably everything is ok with my OE...
16:41.33pazzodalegarethe problem is in my hawkboard....
16:41.42pazzodalegaremine and CHli's one
16:41.58pazzodalegareCHli, did you try Gaston|Home on your board?
16:42.29pazzodalegareNote that uImage_v1 kernel boots without problems...
16:44.53pazzodalegareThank you again

21:18.32pepere_hello gaston
21:19.04pepere_i've tried your files, your uimage and I got the same issue as Chli
21:19.34pepere_I suspect now perhaps an issue with tftp...
21:20.40pepere_have you tried to do tftp GastonuImage
21:20.43pepere_and then boot?
21:21.33pepere_perhaps an issue with the tftp server... :/ really strange... I'll try your ymodem method tomorrow to see if it change the result
21:22.26pepere_anyway Gaston|Home thx for providing the files, knowing it boots on your baords make me try other things :)
21:23.32Gaston|Homenp, good luck
21:31.30pepere_Gaston|Home have you tried just to tftp uImage (the one uploaded) and then boot?
21:31.49pepere_or have each time loady + falsh on nand?
21:32.16Gaston|HomeI didnt even try to get tftp working
21:32.34pepere_it could be interesting to know that using tftp it would faisl for you ;)
21:32.38pepere_^_^
21:32.39Gaston|HomeI dont know how difficult it is to get it running on a virtual guest
21:32.46pepere_ha ok
21:33.03pepere_then perhaps all the mess come finally from the tftp server used
21:33.03Gaston|Homeloady is quick and easy
21:33.07pepere_hum
21:33.16pepere_ok thx, will definitively try tomorrow
21:33.28pepere_I got things to do for tomorrow thx to you ;)
21:33.32Gaston|Homedid you see my message on the hawkboard google group?
21:33.43pepere_I think so, about loady and ymodem?
21:33.52Gaston|Home: yes
21:34.02pepere_yes read it 30min ago
21:34.07Gaston|HomeCHli: , tried it but failed
21:34.12pepere_:/
21:34.39pepere_perhaps you've got an hawkboard v1.01 ? ;)
21:34.42Gaston|Homelooks a bit wierd that you always get stuck on the same point in the boot process
21:35.01pepere_yep really strange, and the stock kernel always works....
21:35.11pepere_really strange ..
21:35.20Gaston|Homeit says rev A
21:35.25Gaston|Homeon the PCB
21:35.29pepere_ha
21:35.31pepere_let me check :)
21:35.48Gaston|Homeright beside the reset button
21:36.29pepere_rev A too :)
21:36.37pepere_using ubuntu 10.04
21:36.48pepere_sure it is an ubuntu 10.04 bug....
21:36.58Gaston|HomeI'm using 9.10
21:37.03pepere_hum...
21:37.14pepere_hey
21:37.34pepere_that make me remind atht when oe worked for me it was in a virtual machien with 9.10...
21:37.42pepere_héhé
21:37.47Gaston|Homebut CHli, had the same issue when he downloaded my uImage and transferred it serially to his board
21:37.52pepere_that can be taht stupid?
21:38.05pepere_yep but 9.10 for chli?
21:38.14pepere_or 10.04?
21:38.23Gaston|Homedoesnt really matter since he used my binary
21:38.33pepere_I really suspect a f##### bug of ubuntu
21:38.41pepere_who knows wth unbuntu....
21:38.50Gaston|HomeI dont think so
21:39.08pepere_tomorrow I will check ymodem + same thing on virtual machine 9.10 just to check
21:39.18pepere_a full test plan baby :)
21:39.22Gaston|Home:)
21:39.38Gaston|Homewould be nice to know what clock the board changes to
21:39.39pepere_I will report tomorrow
21:39.46pepere_hum yes
21:40.02Gaston|Homeseems like its at that point things go bad
21:40.20pepere_can you paste bin early printk of you boot taht is ok?
21:40.36pepere_I will be able to check if there is any tiny difference
21:40.44pepere_I think there is no diff...
21:40.48Gaston|Homejust a second, Ill reboot
21:40.54pepere_ha thx!
21:44.41pepere_http://pastebin.com/72YXif6G
21:45.22pepere_booting your working uImage, it freezes at clock switch
21:45.56Gaston|Homehttp://pastebin.org/250244
21:46.09pepere_thx
21:46.30Gaston|HomeI've got some bad blocks on my rootfs but that dont concern me
21:47.09pepere_yep same but I think they are avoided by the nand chip automagically no?
21:47.57Gaston|HomeMy roofs is on sdram
21:48.03Gaston|Homeformatted ext2
21:48.11Gaston|Homeor maybe ext3
21:48.20pepere_hey
21:48.24Gaston|Homeanyway pretty stupid for flash
21:48.26pepere_your laod address si different
21:48.34Gaston|Homeshould be jffs2 or something
21:48.58pepere_ha no...
21:51.21pepere_do you ahve anythng else connected other than ethernet and serial?
21:51.24pepere_any usb?
21:51.36pepere_power supply 5V powered?
21:51.46Gaston|Homeno usb
21:51.56Gaston|Home5V powered
