[20:42] Hi, is the /current karmic netboot installer working? [20:42] vmlinuz-2.6.31-100-imx51 [20:46] netboot? No [20:46] not on arm anyway [20:47] Martyn-: hmm.. there isn't an arm netboot since jaunty then? [20:47] I wasn't aware that even jaunty had a working net-install [20:47] netboot, yes [20:47] net install? no. [20:48] my bad, i mean't netboot [20:49] I can't get the karmic vmlinuz-2.6.31-203-dove or vmlinuz-2.6.31-100-imx51 working.. [20:49] What should the -M be? [20:49] for qemu :) [20:51] dunno [20:51] I have real hardware :) [20:51] for even Cortex-A9 :) [20:51] lucky :) [20:54] Martyn-: would you be really kind, and give me the output of dpkg-architecture on an armel box? [20:54] (or anyone else for that matter) [21:00] can't at the moment .. I'm at home, not at work :) [21:00] sigh [21:00] wait, I might be able to VPN in if you're patient [21:01] Martyn-: nah, don't worry. but thanks anyway. [21:02] not that i'm being impatient, i just don't want you to go to extra effort :) [21:13] 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] it got quite far before it crashed [21:15] 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 [21:19] 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] build your own then :) [21:20] i've only tested with jaunty anyway, and i think that's what the rootfs script uses also [21:20] but it doesn't seem too picky about kernel. i used a random 2.6.25 and it mostly worked [21:21] hmm.. ok thanks ali1234
