| 19:32.08 | NAiL | what is the disadvantage of initrd? |
| 19:40.51 | NAiL | Space is one, sure. But we're saving a fair bit by using the open NPE driver (and if possible, putting the firmware in other partitions) |
| 19:45.12 | NAiL | An advantage is that it's much easier to make changes to how the startup process works without having to care about getting it upstream. |

| 22:54.10 | [g2] | GPSFan I never looked at it |
| 22:54.36 | [g2] | I just provided the file as blaster8 seem interested in the diff |
| 22:54.44 | GPSFan | [g2]: oh, no matter, now that there is a working one it's somewhat academic. |
| 22:54.56 | [g2] | and with the working config he could easily diff |
| 22:55.35 | GPSFan | quetion 2 did you & rwhitby ever figure out what to do about multiple machines in the same kernel & the machine id shim? |
| 22:55.36 | [g2] | GPSFan btw, right now the repo is missing the EEPROM notifier in the avila/loft config with the MAC patches, and the ixmac_open patch |
| 22:56.13 | [g2] | GPSFan I'm unclear what you mean by question 2. |
| 22:56.33 | [g2] | the machine id shim was missing for BE |
| 22:56.35 | GPSFan | [g2]: k, I haven't looked at the repo since yesterday, been doing "real life" related work |

| 22:57.01 | GPSFan | how do you add the shim> I just used hexedit on the zImage file. |
| 22:57.15 | rwhitby | GPSFan: machine id shim works - Loft BE support was added to the Makefile in the svn kernel repo |
| 22:58.20 | GPSFan | rwhitby: yes, I know it works, I was asking what the mechanism was for adding it to the zImage file (something in Makefile perhaps?) |
| 22:58.35 | [g2] | GPSFan timeout |
| 22:58.56 | [g2] | Redboot should pass the proper machine id |
| 22:59.11 | [g2] | we can fix this for your Redboot |
| 22:59.35 | rwhitby | GPSFan: for other targets, yes, the Makefile adds the correct shim. For the Loft, [g2] has fixed RedBoot to send the correct machine id. |
| 23:00.14 | [g2] | rwhitby, I'm saying GPSFan should ping GW about passing the right machine ID |
| 23:00.33 | [g2] | it's not an IXDP425 platform |
| 23:00.54 | rwhitby | GPSFan: do you have a Loft, or a different GW board? |
| 23:00.59 | GPSFan | [g2]: ah that's a thought. |
| 23:02.33 | [g2] | rwhitby the Loft is a custom GW2348 board that has USB 2.0 |
| 23:03.01 | rwhitby | [g2]: I know that. I'm asking if GPSFan has a Loft, or a different GW board. |
| 23:03.08 | [g2] | GW2348 |
| 23:03.15 | GPSFan | [g2]: I already asked Gateworks tech support how I could get a hold of the source for the distributed software. Still no reply after a week. |
| 23:03.25 | GPSFan | rwhitby: GW2348-4 |
| 23:03.57 | [g2] | GPSFan they ship the RedBoot source as part of their BSP package |
| 23:07.01 | GPSFan | [g2]: they also distribute the linux kernel, busybox and other GPL software on their boards, with no source supplied and no offer of source either. |
| 23:07.26 | [g2] | GPSFan that's a snapgear distro |
| 23:07.35 | [g2] | they distribute the source with the BSP |
| 23:07.51 | GPSFan | [g2]: how does one get a bsp? |
| 23:08.19 | [g2] | same way you get a board, call and order it |
| 23:09.25 | GPSFan | [g2]: they could have said that in a reply to my e-mail, is all I'm saying. |
| 23:09.44 | [g2] | well maybe they are busy |
| 23:09.56 | [g2] | GPSFan you are absolutely right |
| 23:10.23 | [g2] | but sometimes it takes awhile to get an e-mail back |
| 23:10.35 | [g2] | re: dsaxena |
| 23:11.30 | GPSFan | [g2]: that's ok I haven't gotten upset of bothered about it, since I was able to get a working kernel and userland built with minimal help. Then I disconered you here onnslu2-linux, and things got much easier and there was a community to boot. I'm delighted at the performance so far. |
