[06:16] <bandwidthcrunch_> Is there anyway i can extract the uInitrd created for the omap net installer ogra ?
[06:18] <persia> You could dd it off the image.
[06:19] <persia> Oh, net image.
[06:19]  * persia suspects that might already be available
[06:19] <NCommander> persia: depends on how ogra did the uInitrd creation scripts
[06:20] <persia> Right, but for netboot, it's also available direct from http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/lucid/main/installer-armel/current/images/omap/netboot/omap/
[06:21] <bandwidthcrunch_> Its created using mkimage
[06:21] <bandwidthcrunch_> I wanted to extract the ramdisk image
[06:23] <persia> Oh, to un-mkimage it?  I don't know how to do that, sorry.
[06:25] <bandwidthcrunch_> neither do i :(
[06:32] <NCommander> bandwidthcrunch_: you need to strip off the first 64 bits
[06:32] <NCommander> dd if=uImage of=initramfs bs=64 skip=1 should work
[06:33] <bandwidthcrunch_> That would give us a compressed initrd ?
[06:36] <persia> Well, initramfs (which differs from initrd in subtle ways), but it ought.
[06:36] <persia> Give it a try : worst case you end up with a file to delete :)
[06:38] <bandwidthcrunch_> Its a compressed initrd which when uncompressed gives a cpio archive
[06:41] <persia> So it was successful?  You got what you needed?
[06:45] <bandwidthcrunch_> yeah it was . A cpio -iv < initramfs extracted the files
[06:46] <bandwidthcrunch_> I need to bootstrap a device to install a custom lucid version. Have anyone of you noticed a lot of segfaults happening on the omap when apt-get when using the netbook remix version of the same?
[06:47] <persia> The netbook-remix version of apt-get?
[06:48] <bandwidthcrunch_> Yes persia noticing a lot of segfaults when trying to apt-get
[06:49] <persia> Could you describe your configuration?  I'm not sure I understand which combination of software you're using.
[06:49] <bandwidthcrunch_> spcifically ubuntu-10.04-netbook-armel+omap.img about http://cdimage.ubuntu.com/ports/releases/lucid/release/
[06:50] <persia> OK.  Cool.  No special remix software then.
[06:50] <persia> (we use the term "remix" to indicate when something mixes Ubuntu with other modified sources to generate a new thing)
[06:51] <bandwidthcrunch_> Just the omap image mentioned above with the netbook-launcher-efl (2D desktop using e17)
[06:51] <persia> I've not heard about segfaults on omap much.  Please file a bug (with `ubuntu-bug apt`) describing the issue.  If you run that on the target system, it will add all the right tags to make sure the right folks look at it.
[06:51] <persia> RIght.
[06:52] <bandwidthcrunch_> Let me study it a bit more and will file the bugs
[06:55] <persia> Thanks.
[06:55] <persia> It *should* work fine.  I know several folks use it regularly.
[06:55] <persia> And you're sure it's SIGSEGV and not SIGILL?  We had a lot of SIGILL during the transition to -mthumb2
[06:58] <bandwidthcrunch_> Its should ideally work. I tried it on the babbage and the omap. The babbage looked stable enough. I extracted the live images squashfs and dumped it on the omap and then saw this segfaults. Maybe the live CD software is meant to run in ram
[07:00] <bandwidthcrunch_> Let me spend some more time on it and get back to you persia
[07:01] <persia> Good luck.  Don't worry about getting back to me specifically: there's usually several folks around who know more than I :)
[07:02] <bandwidthcrunch_> Thanks :)
[07:37] <DanaG> hmm, http://ossguy.com/?p=317
[07:37] <DanaG> wonder if that's gigabit.
[07:37] <DanaG> now it's "netbook edition", not "netbook remix"
[07:38] <DanaG> 2009 holiday season?  hah!

[10:27] <abogani> What is the cheapest way to add an ethernet interface on beagle board ?
[10:28] <XorA> usb->ethernet
[10:31] <abogani> XorA: Thanks.
[10:59] <ogra> lool, i'm sure you once filed a whishlist bug for qemu to support 512M, do you remember the bugnumber, i seem to not be able to find it
[11:14] <lool> ogra: I dont have it
[11:14] <ogra> ok
[11:14]  * ogra has two subsequent bugs that are caused by it, i wanted to make them duplicates of a wishlist bug 
[11:15] <ogra> phwe ... there are a lot new arches in debians flash-kernel
[11:15]  * ogra goes to merge
[13:28] <rcn-ee> hey ogra, i've been messing around with gdb (qemu bug) not sure if you ran into the same issue when you tried, but i'm getting segmenation faults... http://pastebin.com/MRCxwWZj
[16:13] <GrueMaster> ls
[16:14] <ogra>  /
[16:37]  * ogra hugs rcn-ee ... thanks for the bug report :)
[17:01] <zumbi> lool: rebuild Ubuntu or wait for someone to provide a rebuild; currently this aint easy, but it's on the radar of various people
[17:02] <zumbi> lool: who are those people wanting a tool to bootstrap debian/ubuntu?
[17:16] <ogra> zumbi, the ubuntu-arm team will work on something like that i suspect
[17:17] <ogra> https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-arm/
[17:17] <ogra> https://blueprints.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu-arm/+spec/arm-m-automated-bootstrap looks like what you look for
[17:21] <zumbi> ogra: thanks, very intersting :)
[21:59] <lool> zumbi: Can tell you more in a couple of weeks
[21:59] <lool> zumbi: Lots of interesting UDS sessions this time around
[21:59] <lool> zumbi: https://blueprints.launchpad.net/sprints/uds-m?searchtext=arm-
[22:00] <lool> zumbi: We posted quite a bunch of ARM positions, these folks will be at UDS and we will invest more on ARM related features/developments in the next cycle, see the specs for details on what we will work on
[22:08]  * cwillu_at_work pokes rcn-ee in the kernel
[22:09] <cwillu_at_work> I'm getting a checksum error when my overo tries to read /lib/libc-2.10.1.so, but when I read the file off the card on my desktop, the checksum is correct
[22:10] <cwillu_at_work> I want to blame this on the kernel :D
[23:13]  * Dr_Who waves to lool 
[23:23] <rcn-ee> what's up cwillu_at_work just pulled in...
[23:24] <rcn-ee> umm.. checksum error.. is the disk off the usb bus or mmc?
[23:24] <cwillu_at_work> mmc
[23:24] <cwillu_at_work> same card works in a beagle
[23:25] <cwillu_at_work> modulo the uboot
[23:25] <cwillu_at_work> it's a btrfs checksum error
[23:26] <rcn-ee> weird... so the mmc on the overo has a different checksum on a file vs the beagle or x86..  we might have an overo mmc issue then..
[23:26] <rcn-ee> loads up sakoman's overo tree..

[23:26] <cwillu_at_work> yep
[23:27] <cwillu_at_work> in other news, the display works :)
[23:27] <rcn-ee> that's good to hear, and the most important part...
[23:27] <cwillu_at_work> :)
[23:28] <cwillu_at_work> yay for having multiple equally critical requirements :p
[23:29] <rcn-ee> laughs, he moved his git tree's..  probally got tired of people cloneing them when he says not too...
[23:29] <cwillu_at_work> I'm poking him in #beagle right now :p
[23:29] <cwillu_at_work> I'm also ordering a pizza
[23:30] <cwillu_at_work> we'll see which gets here first \o/
[23:30] <rcn-ee> i saw that too..  starting first beer here.. ;)
[23:31] <cwillu_at_work> oh, weird, didn't see you join there
[23:31] <rcn-ee> oh, i've been idleing for a couple days now.. (it's good to be back home, was at esc last week)
[23:34] <cwillu_at_work> http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi ?
[23:34] <cwillu_at_work> git://gitorious.org/gumstix-oe/mainline.git
[23:35] <rcn-ee> ah found it.. he redirects everything to "http://www.sakoman.net/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi" but it's hidden here: http://www.sakoman.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=summary
[23:36] <cwillu_at_work> you're aware of http://gitorious.org/linux-omap/mainline right? :p
[23:36] <rcn-ee> yeap.. i just can't get use to gitorious's interface.. i dont' know why...
[23:37] <cwillu_at_work> what's to get used to?  you get the clone url, you clone it, you work from the comfort of your own computer (including a git-web if you must :p)
[23:37] <cwillu_at_work> and then you build a kernel, and then I download it :)
[23:38] <rcn-ee> yeah... too many works stations.. ;)
[23:38] <rcn-ee> it's pretty quick with --references all over the place..
[23:39] <rcn-ee> is it just one mmc port on the overo?
[23:39] <cwillu_at_work> yes
[23:39] <cwillu_at_work> microsd port
[23:40] <rcn-ee> this looked a little interesting: http://www.sakoman.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=commit;h=a64b015ff747b71c3efb1aa47d1cf5fab31f78e0
[23:41]  * cwillu_at_work clicks
[23:43] <cwillu_at_work> are you suspicious that it broke something, or suspicious that it fixes something?
[23:44] <rcn-ee> laughs, we can get rid of the message with: http://www.sakoman.com/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=linux-omap-2.6.git;a=commit;h=3d92aab137a4b4b0b71f3222d778d77de58dd1f6
[23:46] <rcn-ee> I'm not sure.. he has about 2-3 just tweaks like the first one and then a big sdio/mmc changeset...
[23:47] <rcn-ee> i think we will have to wait till he gets back to see if he's seen any overo mmc corruption issues yet..
[23:48] <cwillu_at_work> pizza arrived \o/
[23:50] <cwillu_at_work> do you generally pull from him?
[23:50] <cwillu_at_work> i.e., are these patches already in your kernel?
[23:50] <rcn-ee> only for the overo stuff, and then it's mostly cherry picks...
[23:51] <rcn-ee> i've actually never seen the overo board.. ;) i just know a lot of people have been using them for the last year based on my tree...
[23:53]  * cwillu_at_work posts an image

[23:54] <cwillu_at_work> that
[23:54] <cwillu_at_work> that's a tobi with an overo earth
[23:54] <cwillu_at_work> the earth is the smaller board in the middle
[23:54] <rcn-ee> it's just a little thing... neat..
[23:55] <cwillu_at_work> the tobi is a bigger board :)
[23:55] <cwillu_at_work> hang on, I've got an summit around here
[23:59] <cwillu_at_work> the thing I don't like is the cabling
[23:59] <cwillu_at_work> you _need_ to have oddball usb cables to make it work
