[06:17] <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?
[06:18] <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.
[06:19] <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
[06:21] <eggonlea> Is it necessary to create another special uInitrd.nfs for nfs boot?
[06:21] <eggonlea> thanks
[06:24] <eggonlea> Sorry, I double checked the /init script and found I missed the following condition
[06:24] <eggonlea> /dev/nfs)
[06:24] <eggonlea>                         [ -z "${BOOT}" ] && BOOT=nfs
[06:25] <eggonlea> it would NOT export BOOT=nfs if BOOT has another value already (local here).
[06:26] <lool> eggonlea: You could try passing boot=nfs on the kernel cmdline
[06:26] <lool> Oh /dev/nfs probably does the trick yes
[06:26] <eggonlea> let me try
[06:26] <eggonlea> could we just remove this "[ -z "${BOOT}" ]" in /init?
[06:29] <eggonlea> well, boot=nfs in cmdline works.
[06:30] <eggonlea> we have so many args here: netboot, boot, nfsroot=/dev/nfs, BOOT_in_initramfs.conf.
[06:31] <eggonlea> Have to go through the whole /init script to understand the priority. :(
[06:32] <eggonlea> anyway, boot_in_cmdline > BOOT_in_initramfs.conf > nfsroot=/dev/nfs_in_cmdline. Thanks!
[06:48] <lool> Cool
[08:15] <jean85_> am not getting GUI for ubuntu on dvi... anybody help...
[08:16] <Stskeeps> check /var/log/Xorg.0.log
[08:18] <jean85_> but am getting console version on dvi
[08:31] <jean85_> which image i should get for GUI?
[08:37] <kblin> just log in and install xfce or whatever gui you want
[08:43] <kblin> jean85_: You could try installing xubuntu-desktop
[08:44] <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
[11:45] <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.....
[12:10] <dmart> Try make INSTALL_MOD_PATH=$PWD/modules-tmp modules_install
[12:11] <dmart> This should build a suitable lib/modules tree in the scratch directory modules-tmp.
[12:27] <BeardedChimp> dmart: Cheers, I'll try that
[12:36] <BeardedChimp> dmart: Thank worked great cheers, I'm looking to do something similar for creating the linux-headers do you know a similar command?
[12:38] <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.
[12:40] <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.
[12:45] <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
