| Daviey | Hi, is the /current karmic netboot installer working? | 20:42 |
|---|---|---|
| Daviey | vmlinuz-2.6.31-100-imx51 | 20:42 |
| Martyn- | netboot? No | 20:46 |
| Martyn- | not on arm anyway | 20:46 |
| Daviey | Martyn-: hmm.. there isn't an arm netboot since jaunty then? | 20:47 |
| Martyn- | I wasn't aware that even jaunty had a working net-install | 20:47 |
| Martyn- | netboot, yes | 20:47 |
| Martyn- | net install? no. | 20:47 |
| Daviey | my bad, i mean't netboot | 20:48 |
| Daviey | I can't get the karmic vmlinuz-2.6.31-203-dove or vmlinuz-2.6.31-100-imx51 working.. | 20:49 |
| Daviey | What should the -M be? | 20:49 |
| Daviey | for qemu :) | 20:49 |
| Martyn- | dunno | 20:51 |
| Martyn- | I have real hardware :) | 20:51 |
| Martyn- | for even Cortex-A9 :) | 20:51 |
| Daviey | lucky :) | 20:51 |
| Daviey | Martyn-: would you be really kind, and give me the output of dpkg-architecture on an armel box? | 20:54 |
| Daviey | (or anyone else for that matter) | 20:54 |
| Martyn- | can't at the moment .. I'm at home, not at work :) | 21:00 |
| Martyn- | sigh | 21:00 |
| Martyn- | wait, I might be able to VPN in if you're patient | 21:00 |
| Daviey | Martyn-: nah, don't worry. but thanks anyway. | 21:01 |
| Daviey | not that i'm being impatient, i just don't want you to go to extra effort :) | 21:02 |
| ali1234 | i did a net install on armel... it didn't work, but i think only cos the box didn't have enough ram | 21:13 |
| ali1234 | it got quite far before it crashed | 21:13 |
| ali1234 | Daviey: there is a rootfs building script for armel which uses qemu heavily, perhaps it will provide some hints for you? link is in topic | 21:15 |
| Daviey | ali1234: i'll check it out, but it seems the kernel for karmic isn't working for some reason.. There isn't a versatile one, only dove and imx51, and neither of these seems to work with qemu :( | 21:19 |
| ali1234 | build your own then :) | 21:19 |
| ali1234 | i've only tested with jaunty anyway, and i think that's what the rootfs script uses also | 21:20 |
| ali1234 | but it doesn't seem too picky about kernel. i used a random 2.6.25 and it mostly worked | 21:20 |
| Daviey | hmm.. ok thanks ali1234 | 21:21 |
