[06:47] hey folks, redboot question.. on a babbage board, my current boot_script_data just has 'fis load kernel\exec -c "console=...."\' [06:47] with jaunty installed [06:48] the latest BabbageImageFromScratch page states that it should also load an initrd as well.. do I need to do that bit? [07:03] yeah, looks likeI did need it updated [07:03] but running redboot-install was not the right way to do it, since it has a handy "rm -rf usr" in it (what the hell?) [09:38] vlad, yes, it removes the $builddir/usr direcory [09:39] ogra: but it never goes into $BUILDDIR [09:39] did you follow the howto step by step ? [09:39] no, I had an existing build from jaunty, using the old instructions, pre-initrd [09:39] so given taht the script was part of redboot-tools, I ran it on my target, and it rm -rf'd usr :) [09:40] as best I can see the script creates a temp directory and then never changes into it [09:40] ouch, can you file a bug, redboot-install as is si for creating an SD card from a foreign system [09:40] (I also don't see what would ever get unpacke dinto usr, but I didn't look that closely at that) [09:40] s/si/is/ [09:41] will do.. I ended up mailing the authors, I should've just filed a launchpad bug [09:41] will do that tomorrow [09:41] well, i am one of the authors (i just dont read mail frequently on sundays :) ) [09:41] oh! well you have mail :) [09:41] heh [09:42] I can stick it in a bug tomorrow though, having /usr go away on my remote system was a nice way to get me to stop doing work and go do something else ;) [09:42] i will add a check so you cant run it from a running system, the script is to prepare an SD for a rootfs, not to use it from your babbage directly [09:43] yeah, I figured that out too late :) [09:43] its what we use to create the liveimages we provide [09:43] though it would be handy if it could set up a canonical rb setup even on a running babbage [09:43] but instead of using a livefs i redid it a bit so you can use it for normal rootfs bulids [09:43] right [09:43] add that to the bug please [09:44] did you run it on jaunty ? [09:45] stat: cannot stat `/usr/lib/redboot/imx51-babbage-TO2_redboot.bin': No such file or directory makes me suspect so ... [09:46] yep, on jaunty [09:47] my rb setup didn't have an initrd segment, and my boot commands just had the kernel load [09:47] this all started with me wanting to upgrade to a kernel that had NEON support [10:00] do you have a babbage from the 2.x series ? [10:00] i doubt NEON works on the early ones [10:01] and i dont think we enable it yet in the karmic kernels [10:05] (we only got a .31 kernel for babbage in karmic about a week ago) [10:06] there are first daily builds of the installable live image already though [10:06] * ogra points to http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/daily-live/ [10:06] you might want to try it :) [10:07] (note there are plenty of bugs still though, but it should do a proper install to USB disk or a second SD) [18:20] Hey does ubuntu run on a beagleboard? [18:22] Hey does ubuntu run on a beagleboard? [18:22] am i doing something wrong here or is this room empty [18:27] The room is filled with people who idle, not everyone is sitting at their keyboards waiting for people to talk. [18:28] Q_Continuum: lol ok... anyways does ubuntu run on a beagleboard ??? have u tried it? [18:30] I haven't a clue, I have a SheevaPlug [18:31] Q_Continuum, now that you've said that, I have a sheevaplug related question! :D [18:32] are there security updates to arm port of ubuntu? [18:32] yacoob: Perfect, there's also a plug channel #openplug [18:32] as far as I know, yes. [18:33] http://security.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/ doesn't seem to have anything more than i386 and amd64 [18:33] It's a normal architecture Ubuntu supports, so there should be all the normal updates. [18:33] hey are all the packages in synaptic cross compiled for the arm processor? [18:33] hello [18:34] can anybody tell me if it is possible to install ubuntu on ipod touch 1st gen? [18:34] melchi: AFAIK, yes [18:34] AFAIK? i dont speak IRC :) [18:34] ubuntu-user-b2: I doubt that, there are some Linux-based tools that will install on an ipod. [18:35] As Far As I Know [18:35] :( [18:35] wow thats great so i will be able to get python scapy and aircrack-ng running on the little monster [18:35] ? [18:35] but with display manager? [18:36] it is arm based afterall [18:36] the ipod is VERY feature-lacking [18:36] it's a tiny tiny CPU [18:36] with basically nothing for RAM [18:37] yeah but so is the spv c500 and linux runs on that :) [18:37] ubuntu-user-b2: http://www.rockbox.org/ is the linux-based tool I know of. [18:37] uuu [18:37] thanks [18:38] Q_Continuum: hey does ur devices run on battries too? [18:38] ? [18:38] what devices [18:38] ? [18:39] melchi: No, the SheevaPlug is wall-plugged while running. [18:39] thanks [18:39] gtg [19:14] Q_Continuum: hey will you please check ur synaptic on the sheevaplug and let me know if python and aircrack-ng are present in the list? === Tscheesy is now known as Tscheesy__ [21:29] melchi: python is support. basically sheevaplug runs ubuntu 9.04 with most of the packages built for arm processor [21:29] you can check ports.ubuntu.com for the packages that are compiled for arm (has armel in it's name) [23:08] ogra: this daily live image build for imx51 -- I can't install to a SD card using this, right? [23:27] ogra: erm, though even in the latest kernels, CONFIG_NEON is not set -- any reason for that?
