| 00:00.04 | kergoth | tahtd certainly explain it then, wouldnt it |
| 00:00.09 | jacques | yep |
| 00:00.21 | VoodooZ | I have the flashdisk image now do I simply "split" the image and load it in ram via redboot as I usually do with openslug or do I have to manually do other stuff? like that jffs2 folder?? |
| 00:00.22 | jacques | intels makefiles must SuX0r |
| 00:00.42 | kergoth | heh |
| 00:00.51 | kergoth | jacques: dood, there are two makefiles.. one is custom, one uses kbuild in 2.6.. |
| 00:00.57 | kergoth | jacques: lets try building with the latter instead. |
| 00:02.18 | jacques | hmm I wonder why we're not using that |
| 00:03.10 | kergoth | heh, that wont work.. there are no subdir rules. all it does is ixp400.o. thatll expect an ixp400.c at toplevel |
| 00:04.42 | jacques | oh the horror |
| 00:07.43 | kergoth | cp Makefile.kmod26 lib/linuxbe/Makefile |
| 00:07.43 | kergoth | make -C lib/linuxbe |
| 00:07.44 | kergoth | heh |
| 00:07.50 | kergoth | jacques: it uses it for the final portion of the build. |
| 00:08.09 | jacques | ah ok |
| 00:08.52 | kergoth | so it appears that your failing builds, it completes the build of ixp400.o, but never gets to the portion that uses kbuild |
| 00:08.55 | rwhitby-away | VoodooZ: you have to flash it cause it has an FIS directory |
| 00:09.09 | VoodooZ | great. |
| 00:09.53 | VoodooZ | is there complete instructions on the wiki for that? I certainly because as nslu2rules #4 says... |
| 00:11.13 | jacques | VoodooZ if you want to flash everything except redboot and sysconf, there is a wiki page that explains it |
| 00:11.51 | jacques | http://www.nslu2-linux.org/wiki/HowTo/RecoverFromABadFlash |
| 00:12.23 | VoodooZ | ok. what about the rootfs? do I have to create the jffs2 part myself or flashing the whol img file will take care of everything? sorry for my ignorance. |
| 00:12.45 | jacques | the redboot command "fis write -f 0x50060000 -b 0x01060000 -l 0x7a0000" (after a load -r -v -b 0x01000000 foo.bin) flashes everything in the image *after* the sysconf |
| 00:13.22 | jacques | VoodooZ how did you generate your img ? |
| 00:13.28 | VoodooZ | so it doesn't touch my redboot at all right? |
| 00:13.42 | VoodooZ | My img? I simply ran oemake openslug-image. |
| 00:14.51 | jacques | the above command (as explained on the wiki page in much greater detail) does not touch redboot or sysconf |
