[19:44] <Martyn> Afternoon all
[19:44] <Martyn> It
[19:44] <Martyn> It's been a long, long time :)
[19:49] <Martyn> It'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] <Martyn> The online summits just aren't the same :)
[20:28] <applepi> Hi all..  Maybe I'm just missing it, but where could I find the prebuilt ubuntu rootfs images?
[20:33] <applepi> Is it necessary to deboostrap it?  I was of the understanding a stock armhf image existed.
[20:49] <infinity> "ubuntu-core" is a rootfs tarball with no kernel, if that's what you're after.

[21:33] <applepi> infinity: 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.
[21:35] <infinity> applepi: If it's a device we don't support, the answer is something like "you're on your own".
[21:35] <infinity> applepi: 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.
[21:36] <infinity> applepi: 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] <applepi> infinity: should the generic kernel and rootfs not work?
[21:36] <infinity> applepi: The generic rootfs will work fine.  The generic kernel almost certainly not, unless it's one of the few devices supported by it.
[21:37] <applepi> infinity: I have the device tree for it, and from what I understood, support for the chipset was enabled in the generic kernel.
[21:37] <infinity> applepi: What is "it"?
[21:38] <applepi> infinity: mx6slevk
[21:38] <infinity> Ahh, well, then, "maybe".
[21:38] <infinity> mx6 support is on in our kernel but not all boards are completely enabled, I suspect.
[21:39] <infinity> stgraber may know more, but he seems to be avoiding this channel today. :P
