eggonlea | hi, here's a question about initramfs: I did see the following scripts in /init which deals with root=/dev/nfs and export BOOT=nfs. Why I still need modify /etc/initramfs-tools/initramfs.conf to change BOOT from local to nfs? | 06:17 |
eggonlea | I tried NOT to modify BOOT from local to nfs. The result is the export BOOT=nfs script in /init do NOT work. | 06:18 |
eggonlea | I still saw BOOT=local by command "env", even if I pass "root=/dev/nfs" in bootargs in uboot. | 06:18 |
eggonlea | PS: I'm using default Karmic release | 06:19 |
eggonlea | linux-image-2.6.31-208-dove_2.6.31-208.16_armel.deb | 06:19 |
eggonlea | Is it necessary to create another special uInitrd.nfs for nfs boot? | 06:21 |
eggonlea | thanks | 06:21 |
eggonlea | Sorry, I double checked the /init script and found I missed the following condition | 06:24 |
eggonlea | /dev/nfs) | 06:24 |
eggonlea | [ -z "${BOOT}" ] && BOOT=nfs | 06:24 |
eggonlea | it would NOT export BOOT=nfs if BOOT has another value already (local here). | 06:25 |
lool | eggonlea: You could try passing boot=nfs on the kernel cmdline | 06:26 |
lool | Oh /dev/nfs probably does the trick yes | 06:26 |
eggonlea | let me try | 06:26 |
eggonlea | could we just remove this "[ -z "${BOOT}" ]" in /init? | 06:26 |
eggonlea | well, boot=nfs in cmdline works. | 06:29 |
eggonlea | we have so many args here: netboot, boot, nfsroot=/dev/nfs, BOOT_in_initramfs.conf. | 06:30 |
eggonlea | Have to go through the whole /init script to understand the priority. :( | 06:31 |
eggonlea | anyway, boot_in_cmdline > BOOT_in_initramfs.conf > nfsroot=/dev/nfs_in_cmdline. Thanks! | 06:32 |
lool | Cool | 06:48 |
jean85_ | am not getting GUI for ubuntu on dvi... anybody help... | 08:15 |
Stskeeps | check /var/log/Xorg.0.log | 08:16 |
jean85_ | but am getting console version on dvi | 08:18 |
jean85_ | which image i should get for GUI? | 08:31 |
kblin | just log in and install xfce or whatever gui you want | 08:37 |
kblin | jean85_: You could try installing xubuntu-desktop | 08:43 |
kblin | but maybe even that is too memory-hungry for the ram you have on a beagle | 08:44 |
kblin | as I said, I've never hooked up a monitor to my beagles | 08:44 |
BeardedChimp | I have compiled a kernel for my board, How to I generate the folders for it such that I can insert into my rootfs /lib/modules/2.6..... | 11:45 |
dmart | Try make INSTALL_MOD_PATH=$PWD/modules-tmp modules_install | 12:10 |
dmart | This should build a suitable lib/modules tree in the scratch directory modules-tmp. | 12:11 |
BeardedChimp | dmart: Cheers, I'll try that | 12:27 |
BeardedChimp | dmart: Thank worked great cheers, I'm looking to do something similar for creating the linux-headers do you know a similar command? | 12:36 |
dmart | Can't help you there I'm afraid... I'm guessing that simply copying linux/include may not work well enough. You could maybe examine debian/rules for the Ubuntu kernel source packages and see how the kernel-headers-* packages are generated. | 12:38 |
dmart | Unless you want to rebuild glibc or other low level components, you may get away with not having the correct kernel headers in your fs though. | 12:40 |
BeardedChimp | Yeah I don't need them at the minute because I compiled a newer kernel than came with the board for some hardware only supported later, before I was trying to compile the kernel module for the old (2.6.21) kernel but was stuggling with getting the correct kernel headers | 12:45 |
