[12:17] <siji> Hi all
[12:18] <siji> I had created ubuntu rootfs as per ogra's doc
[12:18] <siji> and it's wprking fine with beagle
[12:18] <siji> *working
[12:20] <ogra> good to hear
[12:21] <siji> ogra,now how can i do modifications in it
[12:21] <siji> sudo ./ubuntu_arm --fqdn beagle_net4u --login siji --password x --imagesize 2G --seed lxde,build-essential,libgtk2.0-dev,libgl1-mesa-dev,libgtkgl2.0-dev,xvkbd
[12:22] <siji> and successfully build it and working fine with beagle
[12:22] <siji> now want to add one more package
[12:22] <siji> so do i hve to start this again or can i do frm existing rootfs
[12:27] <ogra> you said it's working with beagle ?
[12:27] <ogra> so you can boot into it ?
[12:28] <ogra> just apt-get install <packagename> on your booted beagle
[12:43] <siji> ogra,any other option
[12:43] <siji> cose i dnt have ethernet in beagle
[12:43] <siji> also only hving one OTG port
[12:43] <siji> that am using for keyboard
[12:44] <siji> so noway to connect to network now
[12:44] <ali1234> doesnt that thing have serial ports?
[12:44] <ogra> plug your SD into your laptop/desktop
[12:44] <ali1234> ie for console on serial
,oh ya
[12:44] <ogra> mount it manually (dont use the automount, else you get probs)
[12:44] <siji> ogra, then
[12:44] <ogra> make sure to have qemu-arm-static installed
[12:44] <siji> yes i have
[12:45] <siji> even tested too
[12:45] <ogra> sudo cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static <your SD mountpoint>/usr/bin
[12:45] <ogra> sudo chroot <your SD mountpoint>
[12:45] <siji> ok
[12:46] <ogra> apt-get install <whatever you want>
[12:46] <siji> then apt-get right?
[12:46] <siji> ok ok
[12:46] <siji> got it
[12:46] <siji> will try
[12:46] <ogra> note that you need to mount /proc inside the chroot for some packages
[12:46] <ali1234> or just copy the debs onto the sd card
[12:46] <ali1234> then put back in the board
[12:46] <ogra> (and that you need to unmount it before exiting the chroot)
, sometimes it wil show lot of dependencies
[12:46] <siji> ok
[12:47] <ogra> i.e. openssh-server wouldnt install without /proc
[12:47] <ogra> or hal
[12:47] <siji> ok
[12:47] <ali1234> or get a usb hub for the one usb port
,noway :)
[12:47] <siji> am tried half of the day
[12:47] <siji> for starting usb mini hub with beagle board but failed
[12:48] <ali1234> that kind of sucks
[12:48] <ali1234> OTG ports are supposed to handle hubs
[12:48] <siji> ya
[12:48] <siji> but dnt knw why
[12:48] <ali1234> got to be self powered though
[12:49] <ali1234> why don't you run the usb as ethernet gadget and log in over the network?
[12:50] <ali1234> with the right cable it should be possible to switch between host and gadget automatically
, u mean can can connect both netwrk and keyboard together ??
[12:52] <ogra> no, you use the USB cable connected to your laptop/desktop like a network
[12:53] <ogra> and ssh into your beagle through that
[12:53] <siji> ok ok
[12:53] <siji> got it
[12:53] <ogra> but that requires a specially set up cable
[12:54] <siji> ya usb to ethernet cable or smthing right
[12:54] <siji> i think it's coslty too :(
[12:54] <ogra> no, an OTG cable ... you can solder it yourself
[12:54] <ogra> one pin needs to be grounded afaik
[12:55] <siji> ok
[12:55] <ali1234> actually you dont need the special cable - you can switch the mode in software usually
[12:55] <ogra> but i guess qemu-arm-static is the quickest and easiest solution in your case :)
[12:55] <siji> ogra,, right
[12:55] <ali1234> the special cable allows the hardware to automatically go into the right (host or device) mode
[12:56] <siji> ok
[14:42] <siji> ogra,thanks
[14:42] <ogra> worked ?
[14:42] <siji> my clutter application starts running in beagle ubuntu
[14:42] <siji> yes
[14:42] <ogra> cool
[14:42] <siji> now testing the performance
[14:42] <siji> intial testing output was good
