MartynIt's been a long, long time :)19:44
MartynIt's been sad that there have been no more physical summits ... that used to be one of the big highlights of the year for me :)19:49
MartynThe online summits just aren't the same :)19:49
applepiHi all..  Maybe I'm just missing it, but where could I find the prebuilt ubuntu rootfs images?20:28
applepiIs it necessary to deboostrap it?  I was of the understanding a stock armhf image existed.20:33
infinity"ubuntu-core" is a rootfs tarball with no kernel, if that's what you're after.20:49

applepiinfinity: okay..  if I wanted to get ubuntu running on an SD card on an ARM board, with as little pain as possible, what instructions should I follow?  I've found several different images, methods, suggestions, etc., and nothing works.21:33
infinityapplepi: If it's a device we don't support, the answer is something like "you're on your own".21:35
infinityapplepi: And I suspect that's the case for you.  So, you need to provide the bootloader and kernel, then jam that into a rootfs (like the above) and see what happens.21:35
infinityapplepi: Every device is different, so there aren't really any sane written instructions I could even write to tell you how to do that generically.21:36
applepiinfinity: should the generic kernel and rootfs not work?21:36
infinityapplepi: The generic rootfs will work fine.  The generic kernel almost certainly not, unless it's one of the few devices supported by it.21:36
applepiinfinity: I have the device tree for it, and from what I understood, support for the chipset was enabled in the generic kernel.21:37
infinityapplepi: What is "it"?21:37
applepiinfinity: mx6slevk21:38
infinityAhh, well, then, "maybe".21:38
infinitymx6 support is on in our kernel but not all boards are completely enabled, I suspect.21:38
infinitystgraber may know more, but he seems to be avoiding this channel today. :P21:39
