12:38.31ashui just cant get it working whatever i do
12:38.34Croftonit sounds like you aer running into the problem creating image with external tolchain becuase you do not have a libc package
12:39.13ashuyes thats right, while generating rootfs - it is failing
12:39.17Croftonas in, the oe build will stage the generated libc so you can build sw and package it so you can install it in the image
12:39.37Croftonbut, with the external toolchain, you lack the libc package

12:40.13ashui know what to do, but i dont know how
12:40.51Croftonashu, same problem here, sorry
12:40.52ashui know i must tell OE - look here are the libraries, create an ipk file and resolve all the dependencies
12:41.14Croftonhave you looked at the external-toolchain bb file
12:41.20Croftonthat may attempt to solve the problem
12:41.41steliosk_Crofton : Hi !
12:41.45ashui have tried that, i have also followed the sharprom-compatible example

16:39.55GNUtoohello, my device depend on a 2.4 kernel...what distro should i use || or is there any hints for making mine(last time i had problems with revision control system pulling me the first revision...)
16:41.54keesjGNUtoo: sound like you want a quick win :P
16:42.46GNUtookeesj, no i was wondering if there are not already distros because reinventing the wheel isn't good
16:43.00keesjapparently angstrom also support 2.4 kernels *a grep in /org.openembedded.dev/conf/distro * shows a few more that use a 2.4 kernel
16:44.05GNUtookeesj, i thought anstrom didn't support 2.4 kernel anymore (2008.1)
16:45.22thesingGNUtoo: the angstrom*-legacy distros are for 2.4
16:45.42thesingGNUtoo: But I don't know if they work.
16:47.38GNUtoothesing, ok i'll try angstrom but they have only that line inside the legacy config: require conf/distro/angstrom-2008.1.conf
16:48.36thesingGNUtoo: you will have to add things.
16:49.15GNUtoothesing, such as?
16:51.04thesingGNUtoo: PREFERRED-PROVIDERS.
16:51.20GNUtoook
16:52.21thesingGNUtoo: look at normal angstrom and decide what you don't want. (udev for example, so set PREFERED_PROVIDER_hotplug="hotplug" or smth. else)
16:53.01GNUtooand is there a PREFERED_PROVIDER for choosing between kdrive xserver or qte?
16:53.19GNUtoosuch as when i make libsdl it choose the good one
16:54.09thesingGNUtoo: you should probably also change PCMCIA_MANAGER
16:54.45thesingGNUtoo: thats not the task of the distro. This depends on the image you build.
16:54.58GNUtoook
16:55.38thesingGNUtoo: I don't know about sdl but afaik sdl doen't work for current opie.
16:56.08GNUtooah this one is also broken(libsdl-directfb is broken)

18:23.58GNUtooyes i have it
18:26.27GNUtoothesing, without the require thing it does that: TARGET_OS      = "linux"
18:26.56XorA|hereishthesing: I like the gist of your initramfs, I take it minimal kernel + initramfs fit into kernel mtdpart?
18:28.28GNUtoothesing, and with the include it does that: TARGET_OS      = "linux-gnueabi"
18:28.36thesingXorA|hereish: yes.  it fits even with keyboard and lcd compiled in. ;) You can get the collie kernel down to 650K and the initramfs is 300K ;)

18:37.35GNUtoothesing, doesn't work
18:38.31thesingant_: what? setting TARGET_OS directly? (should happen after 'require a*')
18:38.45thesingGNUtoo: this was for you ;)
18:40.01thesingant_: What's the reason to replace the sharpbootloader with uboot? Many users could break there machine with this.
18:40.18ant_thesing: to have 1408k for kernel TODAY
18:40.37ant_thesing: and to get rid of rootsize limitations
18:41.36ant_thesing: u-boot.bin is already managed by zaurus-updater
18:42.01ant_thesing: now it is only matter of creating our emergency sistem
18:42.13GNUtoothesing, wow adding it after works...
18:43.23ant_thesing: for the moment one is supposed to flash u-boot + emergency with the pdaxrom installer (r197 / r198)

18:44.59ant_thesing: it is
18:45.17thesingant_: well then you system is unbootable if something goes wrong.
18:45.29XorA|hereishthesing: the clamshells have a spare bootloader in rom
18:45.41ant_thesing: you have the emergency kernel+ramfs
18:45.47ant_thesing: for this
18:46.01ant_thesing: but indeed, is not needed
18:46.31ant_thesing: (sharpsl-flash is untouched)
18:46.53ant_thesing: Fn+D+M will work
18:47.19thesingant_: ok then. But why is kernelsize limited to 1408K then? is this an u-boot limit?
18:47.36ant_thesing: only because emergency system is big!
18:47.59ant_thesing: 7168k -256k uboot -128k u-boot env - emergency - uimage
18:48.52thesingant_: and 7168K is an u-boot limit?
18:48.55ant_thesing: if you read in my bug, I plan to stretch /root to 10mb
18:49.24ant_thesing: it is fixed in kernel (/drivers/mtd/nand/sharpsl.c)
18:50.15thesingant_: with uboot running one could handle this with the mtdparts commandline option.
18:50.24ant_thesing: yes
18:50.49ant_thesing: straight from u-boot
18:51.13ant_thesing: atags too (partially ?)
18:51.29ant_* we need badly an u-boot expert here !
18:51.54ant_* RP, mwester, ...
18:52.34thesingant_: are pcmcia and sd drivers in uboot? one wouldn't need the emergency system then. one could load another kernel from cf or sd.
18:53.09XorA|hereishRP: yay, qemu now works
18:53.29ant_thesing: it is supposed to boot from CF or HD, so yes!
