hvn2Hi, I've cross-compiled a vanilla kernel on Ubuntu 12.04 using make-kpkg for armhf and omap3. However, the installer on the target says the kernel is not omap architecture. How can I make sure the kernel is built for omap3, apart from configuring the kernel as such ? I already used --subarch=armhf and tried  --subarch=omap11:44

zacthespackHello, is there anyone about that could help me with an issue?14:53
zacthespackthis is the issue I am having http://askubuntu.com/questions/418991/arm-chroot-installing-xfce-fails-packages-named-different14:54
ogra_zacthespack, that smells like you're mixing debian with ubuntu15:04
ogra_(are you sure this is an ubuntu chroot at all ?)15:05
zacthespackyes I built the rootfs myself15:05
ogra_and your package db us up to date (i.e. you ran apt-get update before trying to install anything)15:06
zacthespackindeed15:06
zacthespackmy sources.list has15:07
zacthespackdeb http://ports.ubuntu.com saucy main restricted universe15:07
zacthespackdeb-src http://ports.ubuntu.com saucy main restricted universe15:07
ogra_try making http://ports.ubuntu.com to actually be http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports15:07
ogra_and run apt-get update again15:08
hvn2Hi ogra_, can you tell me if this is the right place about cross-compiling for armhf and omap ?15:10
ogra_sure15:11
hvn2OK ty15:11
hvn2my problem is that I take a vanilla kernel, which I patched for xenomai...this goes fine. Then I configure the kernel for omap3 and cross-compile for armhf.15:13
hvn2Then I install the kernel on the target, but the target says that the kernel is not an omap kernel15:13
zacthespackoagr_ thanks it worked!15:14
zacthespackogra_ thanks it worked!15:14
hvn2ogra_: do you have any clue what might be the cause of this ?15:15
ogra_no, why dont you just follow the kernel cross building wiki ?15:15
ogra_https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelTeam/ARMKernelCrossCompile ...15:16
hvn2I did follow any kernel cross building wiki and info I could find15:16
ogra_the kernel team has vanilla trees on kernel.ubuntu.com i belive ... and there are debs and source debs for these kernels too15:16
ogra_#ubuntu-kernel should be able to help you further in that direction15:16
hvn2ok, so you say that I should not take a kernel from kernel.org but from kernel.ubuntu.org...because of ?15:18
ogra_oh, feel free to take any kernel you want ... it is just easier with a proper package dir15:19
ogra_anyway, thats more #ubuntu-kernel than arm15:19
ogra_the above wiki definitely works for cross building kernels out of the different trees and source packages i have used before15:20
hvn2ah ok15:20
hvn2does that work for omap specifics as well ?15:20
ogra_the current trusty images use the ubuntu -generic kernel for omap (which should be something like 3.13 without any omap specific patches) ... so i would assume yes15:22
hvn2do you know about precise images as well ?15:28
ogra_precise didnt use generic kernels ... it had hacked up BSP ones iirc15:33
ogra_but ask the kernel team15:33
hvn2ok, ty15:33
ogra_as for your initial question, i'm pretty sure the kernel version gets overridden during package build (thats a debian thing that ubuntu inherits from there)15:35
ogra_i doubt make-kpkg uses that mechanism15:36
hvn2does that mean I should or shouldn't use make-kpkg ?15:37
hvn2I used make when I started, but I prefer to end up with a .deb package instead of just a uImage without uInitrd15:39
