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. Thanks! [1] https://github.com/nielsek/community-b3-uboot [2] https://github.co...

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...

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...

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....

You should try to flash u-boot from u-boot following this guide Updating_your_B3_to_support_3TB_disks using the u-boot.kwb file you want to flash.

I have not tested this kind of setup. For sure your data will be kept, however accessing from the wheezy image will have to be done manually (LVM setup and mountpoint). I think I have left the LVM tools in the image but if not it won't be too difficult to install them.

Since I am also desperately trying to switch my B3 to a regular Debian, that can be updated with the normal package-sources. I also already flashed my U-Boot to support recent kernels. Is there any way to run a recent vanilla debian that can be easily updated through the regular sources (without re...

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.

I have now installed the bubba3-kernel version: 1:2.6.39.4-13.
Can I replace it with linux-image-3.2.0-4-powerpc?

No you must use an updated version of the bubba3-kernel package. There is one available here.

And because of uboot that I have now on my Bubba 2, the newest kernels can't be installed on my Bubba2, right? The u-boot bug that prevent newer kernel from booting does not affect the Bubba 2. You can boot it with newest kernel without upgrading u-boot (in any case we don't have the original modif...

1. I shall test it as MouettE did ( contact the TX and the RX wires together on the cable, open a console and see if sent characters echo back ). Don't know only how to open a console on my Arch linux desktop system and how to send characters? 2. The hyperlink: http://viewtopic.php?f=8&t=206 do...

Now everything seems OK for me too. Good news !

DNS is still somewhat mysterious to me... The whois record for the domain shows correct nameservers so I guess the registrar this ok ? Could it be the other way round, the zone file being incorrect ?

You did not get an answer, This means your local DNS server (192.168.1.254) is buggered. You should get this: [root@php-sites ~]# dig -t ns myownb3.com ; <<>> DiG 9.8.2rc1-RedHat-9.8.2-0.30.rc1.el6 <<>> -t ns myownb3.com ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: ...

That wasn't what I meant. The point is that with https the browser is supposed to verify that the key[...] certificate as being genuine. I agree with all that but this is not what I was talking about. Excito repositories are signed with a gpg key and you need that key to distribute an update (which...
