royerfaand I am not sucessful in creating a armel-rootfs-****.tgz14:48
royerfathis command line sudo ./build-arm-rootfs --fqdn ubuntu --login ubuntu --password ubuntu --imagesize 3G --seed ubuntu-desktop14:49
royerfais creating nothing for me :(14:49
royerfaThank in advance for any help :)14:49
loologra: ^14:51
ograwhere is your log ?14:51
royerfathis is what I have on the command line fabroy01@fabroy01-desktop:/media/sdb/test$ sudo ./build-arm-rootfs --fqdn ubuntu --login ubuntu --password ubuntu --imagesize 3G --seed ubuntu-desktop14:52
royerfaI: Creating temporary Image14:52
royerfafabroy01@fabroy01-desktop:/media/sdb/test$14:52
ogrado you have qemu installed ?14:54
royerfayes14:54
ograwell, there should be a log14:55
royerfaand debootstrap_1.0.13~jaunty1_all.deb14:55
royerfathere is nothing created14:55
ograare you on jaunty or karmic ?14:56
royerfaI don't remember .. what is the command to tell ?14:56
ogralsb_release -a14:57
ograCodename should tell you14:57
royerfaintrepid 8.1014:57
ograoh14:57
ograi dont think i every tested it on intrepid at all14:57
royerfaOK could be the raison14:58
royerfaI am testing it on a 9.0414:58
ograwell, still strange that you dont get any output14:58
ogradirectly after "I: Creating temporary Image" it runs qemu-img to create an image, that should spill any output even if it doesnt work14:58
royerfaI will upgarde and let you know15:00
ograoki15:00
royerfasudo apt-get upgrade right ?15:00
ograno, use update-manager15:00
ogrado you run a desktop system atm ?15:00
royerfano I am using the box as a server15:01
ograhttp://www.ubuntu.com/getubuntu/upgrading15:01
ogra"Network Upgrade for Ubuntu Servers (Recommended)"15:01
ografollow that reciepe15:01
royerfathx you very much15:02
MadsySlightly off-topic. Is it possible to tell gcc *not* to emit literal values in the .text segment?15:02
MadsyARM gcc does that (uses a pool) because the address modes can't hold all permutations of 32-bit immediates.15:03
loolMadsy: the man page mentions -mtext-section-literals and -mno-text-section-literals; sounds like what you're looking for?15:14
MadsyWow, that's it. Thanks :-)15:18
MadsyI did look at the manual, but must have missed it.15:19
MadsyI made a metamorphic engine for fun some time ago. Compared to say, x86 it's a lot more easy since instruction encodings are of constant length.15:21
MadsyI have a weird affection for evoolving code and AI.15:22
MadsyIf I can get rid of all data in the .text segment, I can simplify the code a lot. And rewrite it in pure C.15:23
royerfaHI, I get rid of my problem on the 9.04 release16:19
ogracool !16:19
royerfaI was wondering if the beagle board would boot without a keyboard and without a screen ?16:19
royerfaas I want to use it only as a server16:20
ograit should16:20
royerfaok16:20
ograyou will need openssh-server in the rootfs indeed and should set up /etc/network/interfaces on the SD card16:21
loolOr use the serial console16:26
lool:-P16:26
ograright, but that needs changes to the SD as well :)16:26
ograor use rootstock, that already has serial support ;)16:27
Madsyogra: Your qemu-versatile 2.6.28 image, is it straight from kernel.org or the kernel from Ubuntu Intrepid?17:04
ograubuntu17:04
MadsyDo you happen to know the calling convention for system calls? I.e is the immediate in SWIs used like in ARM Debian 2.4 kernels? Or are the arguments passed by r0-r4?17:05
MadsyDebian updated the ARM ABI when they ported the 2.6 kernel.17:05
ograi havent used debian stuff since woody, sorry17:11
ogralool might know the differences17:12
loolMadsy: its EABI syscalls conventions17:25
loolJust like the Debian armel port17:25
MadsyThanks.17:33
