Kernel oops during gdb

2000-10-10 Thread Brad Dixon
Hello: I'm having difficulty working with gdb on my target board. I've created a simple Hello World program as the debug target and am executing gdb on out PPC823 board. Once gdb is given the run command the kernel croaks. I've appended the example and the generated oops. Reading the oops

Booting the kernel... how?

I cannot run the kernel from PPCBOOT on my FADS and i dont know why. I configured bd_t on my 'fads.h' to look the same of 'ppcboot.h', i created the image using the same procedure explained on the README of PPCBOOT (getting a zImage.initrd) but after compressing the kernel, nothing happens to

Safe shutdown on IDE boot

Hi, I boot Hardhat linux on IDE disk on sp7400. But I can boot it only once. The next time I boot, I see VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly. Freeing unused kernel memory: 284k init and hangs there. I put the disk back to Host and found some problem with fs on this disk and I can

exchanges file in minicom

2000-10-10 Thread Zhaobin Zhu
Hi, I boot linux over IDE disk. The only connection between host and target is RS232 which is used to download and as console(minicom). After kernel is running on target, how can I send/receive files between host(minicom/linux) and target ? For ascii file, I can use cat /dev/ttyS0 on target,
