Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

If you build directly on your b2 (or your b3) do not define the ARCH and CROSS_COMPILE environment variables. The steps are very similar between the b2 and the b3 ; the configuration file is obviously different and the uImage will be inside arch/arm/boot for the b3 and arch/powerpc/boot for the b2. ...

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

You don't need to load an alternate config file ; just follow the steps in my post above and forget about the wiki page (except the part 'Installing the compilation tools' to install necessary tools).

Re: B2 Building a Custom kernel - menuconfig issue

Hi, As Gordon said the package is meant to be built with debian tools. Besides the wiki page needs a serious refresh. Here are some detailed instructions for quickly rebuilding the kernel : The instructions provided below applies only to this specific version (3.2.62-1). I will update the wiki page ...

Re: Kernel 3.2 for B2/B3

You shouldn't try to build the kernel from master branches in git because the repositories are probably broken for now. You should download the 3.2.62-1 tagged source from here : community-b3-kernel-debian-1-3.2.62-1.tar.gz untar and then follow the instruction on the wiki from 'Customizing the kern...

Re: Easyfind: what is the road map for this service?

I cannot answer on the technical side but Rodeus intends to maintain the easyfind service for the b3. We are still in the transition process though.

Re: New Mybubba.org servers

We are working on bringing the hotfix server back online (it has been shut down on 15th december due to the bankruptcy). Hopefully it should be back online next week. It took a little bit longer than expected but the original excito hotfix server is finally back online. I didn't have time to test i...

Re: Update UBOOT from OS

Is there something, that shows that a write to flash has happend. Or is the output the same as for me, just that my flash is never written to? The write operations are silent. Can you try a manual flash from u-boot ? This is the content of such a session : U-Boot 2010.06 (Jun 10 2011 - 09:06:51) BU...

Re: Ancient Firebird on B3

Well after a few hours I didn't manage to compile gcc3 on the b3. I think it would be simplier to change firebird source to compile with modern gcc.

Re: Update UBOOT from OS

Just did the test on my b3 and indeed it just sits here because the configuration does not reset the board after the flash procedure. Just type reset and see wether the flash was successful or not.

I want to use the community u-boot from github [1] which you might know, since the last commit if from you. :) Btw. what is the difference between this repo and your own [2] despite the fact that [2] look more official.

Re: Ancient Firebird on B3

Do you think it would be that simple ? The gcc version on squeeze is actually too recent to build this old version of firebird. You need to compile an 3.x version of gcc on the B3 and compile firebird with that. I just tested on a virtual i386 squeeze and it did the job. I suppose it would work on t...

Re: Ancient Firebird on B3

You should try to download config.guess and config.sub in the directory where they're supposed to be : wget -O builds/make.new/config/config.guess 'http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=config.git;a=blob_plain;f=config.guess;hb=HEAD' wget -O builds/make.new/config/config.sub 'http://git.savannah.gnu...

Re: Gentoo live USB for Bubba|2 (with Linux 3.18.2) released

Good god you've written assembly code to boot large kernels on b2. Man you are crazy :twisted: I confess I would have modified U-Boot configuration. It's not that risky and the maintenance is easier in the long run. That being said I love the shimmed challenge :D Edit : just read the buildkernel-b2....
