[08:16] hello! congratulations on ubuntu on N8xx! [08:17] Well it wasn't really us [08:17] I know - but still a step forward [08:18] Eh [08:18] I wish we'd have some time to provide OMAP2 kernels [10:57] morning persia [10:57] Stskeeps, Good morning. === mcasadevall is now known as NCommander [17:00] ogra: So we need to fix this fis data [17:00] ogra: You have to test everything yourself; fis or fconfig provide *no* safety net (which is another reason they are a bit suckish) [17:01] ogra: Also, you should pick larger partitions; I can tell you which values I used [17:02] RedBoot: addr = 0x00000000, size = 0x00040000, entry = 0x00000000, length = 0x00000000, cksum = 0x00000000 [17:02] RedBoot config: addr = 0x0005f000, size = 0x00001000, entry = 0x00000000, length = 0x00000000, cksum = 0x00000000 [17:02] FIS directory: addr = 0x00040000, size = 0x0001f000, entry = 0x00000000, length = 0x00000000, cksum = 0x00000000 [17:02] kernel: addr = 0x00060000, size = 0x00400000, entry = 0x00100000, length = 0x001dbdf0, cksum = 0x3defe9b2 [17:02] initrd: addr = 0x00460000, size = 0x00940000, entry = 0xffffffff, length = 0x00940000, cksum = 0xd256cea1 [17:02] ogra: ^ [17:14] fis -d $IMAGENAME -o 0x40000 -s 0x1F000 create "kernel" -f 0x60000 -l 0x500000 -r 0x100000 -e 0x100000 -c $KERNEL [17:14] fis -d $IMAGENAME -o 0x40000 -s 0x1F000 create "initramfs" -f 0x560000 -l 0x940000 -r 0x1000000 -e 0x1000000 -c $INITRAMFS [17:14] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 3913573 Mar 31 14:07 initrd.img-2.6.28-11-imx51 [17:14] -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1949168 Mar 31 14:05 vmlinuz-2.6.28-11-imx51 [17:16] http://paste.ubuntu.com/141537/ [17:48] ogra: Actually you miss the load addresses from the above dump [17:48] do i? [17:48] * ogra checks [17:49] ogra: Yes, the same data which I miss for ramdisk load address in flash kernel ;) [17:49] ah, well, might be because i copied your code :) [17:49] ogra: Do you know about the fis list -d switch?

[17:50] sure i do [17:50] http://paste.ubuntu.com/141560/ [17:51] What you miss is the "Mem addr" data [17:51] addr ?? [17:51] flash addr is addr, length is size, datalen is length, entry point is entry [17:52] i dont see a difference between -d and without .d [17:52] *-d [17:52] ogra: length versus data length [17:52] ogra: length is the size of the partition, data length is the size of the used data within [17:52] OOOH!! [17:52] hmm [17:52] We're padding the initramfs which is why data length == length [17:52] ogra@osiris:/var/build/babbage/images$ sudo fis -d /dev/mmcblk0 -o 0x40000 list -d [17:52] Extra arguments after 'list' [17:52] == size [17:52] ogra: It's only in redboot [17:52] sad that it doesnt work here [17:53] yeah [17:53] ogra: That's why I was saying it needs patching [17:53] right, but not critical atm [17:55] ogra: dev="/dev/mmcblk0" => in theory you could get that from find_fs /, but not sure it's worth the risk [17:56] nah [17:56] if we support different bootmedia it will make sense [17:58] ogra: To retrieve the config offset, you could copy my fis_info() from flash-kernel [17:59] fis -d /dev/mmcblk0 -o 0x40000 list| sed -n '/config:/s/^.*addr = $.*$, size = $.*$, entry.*$/\1 \2/p' [17:59] its already in my code [17:59] It's not the same at all [17:59] just cut off the vals i dont need [17:59] You're using .* instead of 0x([0-9a-f]{8}) [18:00] because i'm fine with the hex values as they are returned [18:00] I'm also matching the start of the line, I think you could as well "RedBoot config: [18:00] ogra: if you want the 0x, move the parenthesis [18:00] what do you fear ? [18:00] ogra: But addr = $.*$, entry.* will match e.g. addr = 0x00060000, size = 0x00400000, entry = 0x00100000, [18:01] ogra@osiris:/var/build/babbage/images$ sudo fis -d /dev/mmcblk0 -o 0x40000 list| sed -n '/RedBoot config:/s/^.*addr = $.*$, size = $.*$, entry.*$/\1 \2/p' [18:01] 0x0005f000 0x00001000 [18:01] ogra: I fear that if I add ram = in the middle it will break [18:01] it matches exactly what i need [18:01] ogra: Currently, but if I add the RAM address in the middle of the values, it will break your script [18:01] how would you add ram in the middle without patching heavily [18:02] ogra: I don't need to patch heavily?! it currently spits addr, size, entry, length, and cksum [18:02] Just changing the order of the values will break in ugly ways [18:03] Because .* can match a full new column, while [0-9a-f]{8} can not [18:03] ok, thats fine, but if you add ram in the middle your fis_info will break in the same way [18:03] http://people.ubuntu.com/~lool/linux-image-2.6.28-11-imx51_2.6.28-11.38arm3_armel.deb [18:04] ogra: Yes my fis_info will break cleanly :) [18:04] lol [18:04] ogra: Because it will return no output and that is tested [18:04] ok ok ... [18:04] ogra: Also you could anchor the start of the expression, that will avoid matching "Backup of my RedBoot config:" :-P [18:05] Yeah I'm pushing hard, but it's easy to do solidly, and we have a good example of what happens when you don't verify everything *cough* [18:20] On the fconfig line, you use "${script}" instead of just "$script"; you seem to use $ without {} the rest of the time so... [18:26] ogra: ^ [18:28] http://paste.ubuntu.com/141583/ [18:28] lool, ^^ [18:35] lool, if that code looks ok to you i would upload it [18:37] ogra: at the phone ATM [18:37] ok [19:16] echo >> "fis_dev=${fis_dev}" >> /target/etc/flash-kernel.conf [19:16] never saw that syntax [19:16] err [19:16] it doesn't work [19:16] * ogra slaps forhead [19:16] indeed [19:16] ogra: Also, don't rely on >> to create the file, I don't think that's POSIX; touch it first or use cat >/etc/flash-kernel.conf < ogra: (parameter expansion works in here docs) [19:17] well, we can rely on it not being there, i'll just drop one > [19:17] here docs look horrible, i try to avoid them if its only some lines [19:18] ogra: I fint a here doc more readable than 3 times ">> /target/etc/flash-kernel.conf [19:18] http://paste.ubuntu.com/141605/ [19:18] but your call [19:18] ok, that works [19:18] ogra: You can drop the unused () pairs in the sed [19:18] You only use \1 [19:19] ogra: I prefer tty0 than tty1 [19:19] tty0 is the active console [19:20] ogra: Hmm what happens if we don't put anything? [19:20] I think we developers will set it to ttymxc0 and users will rely on the default (tty0 or 1 I guess) [19:21] ogra: I'd double quote $fis_dev in the two fis calls, just in case [19:21] ok, i'll drop console [19:21] ogra: Otherwise that looks fine; thanks! [19:28] lool, ok, i'll upload after i fixed the indendation [19:28] somehow my vi setup is messy [19:28] lool, you dont use a patch system, right ? [19:29] ogra: A patch system for what? [19:29] flash-kernel [19:29] No [19:29] great [19:29] * ogra really prefers it that way [19:29] The archive has the various uploads I did, which map pretty well to new features [19:30] right ... and debdiff is still the cleanest way [19:30] damned .. whats wrong with my vi setup [19:31] ogra@osiris:/var/build/babbage/images$ echo $TERM [19:31] linux [19:31] hmm, might be related [19:31] silly minicom ... forcxes me to set it to linux [20:08] lool, for the bug iop32x initrd, i think we need to build cramfs into kernel. [20:08] lool, do you want me to provide a patch to merge and then you test the kernel [20:22] rwhitby, ! weclome [20:45] debian/config/armel/config.iop32x:CONFIG_CRAMFS=m [20:45] debian/config/armel/config.ixp4xx:CONFIG_CRAMFS=m [20:45] cooloney: it's weird that it would work for NSLU2 [20:45] ogra: Did you have a chance to test the netboot images for NSLU2? [20:45] ogra: Oh wait, you can't remote load them, right? [20:45] do you really want a initrd or initramfs? [20:46] suihkulokki: For the target device initramfs, for d-i I don't know [20:46] lool, yes, it is weird [20:46] but for mounting cramfs as initrd, it should be built into the kernel, right? [20:47] cramfs doesn't matter for initramfs [20:50] What about CONFIG_ROMFS_FS? [20:50] is that romfs? [20:50] debian/config/armel/config.iop32x:# CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is not set [20:50] debian/config/armel/config.ixp4xx:# CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is not set [20:50] debian/config/armel/config.versatile:CONFIG_ROMFS_FS=y [20:50] yes, that might be the problem [20:51] It could be either, it's possible the netboot images don't work on NSLU2 either as only the flashable image are used [20:51] Please don't turn any config in NSLU2 though, it's really tight on memory ATM [20:51] the initrd is romfs or cramfs [20:51] ? [20:51] lool, need i turn on CRAMFS or ROMFS? [20:52] CONFIG_ROMFS_FS is for fs/romfs and CONFIG_CRAMFS fs/cramfs; saw no mention in initrd [20:52] cooloney: You're the kernel guy! [20:53] lool, i just don't the file system type of the initrd, -:)0 [20:53] cause the kernel panic said that it tried several file system type to mount that [20:53] but it failed [20:54] so it might be missing some file system support built in [20:56] cooloney: I really don't know; perhaps you can check the netboot file? [20:56] lool, ok, got it. thx [20:58] It seems it's a gnome-session with a different wm and different apps to load [20:59] * lool &
