Angstrom kernel 2.6.21 and modules can be found in: http://www.oesf.org/forum/index.php?showtopic=24960&st=210&start=210 Flashing the 2007.12 image and then flashing only the kernel (and extracting the modules) seems to work (altboot works again). I don't know if 2.6.21 breaks something else though. The kernel can also be built by using OE/bitbake (it has a recipe for 2.6.21). (We can also wait for 2.6.24 - possibly it fixes altboot problems). A suggestion for Angstrom maintainers: if the "console-altboot-image" for 2007.12 has the same altboot problem in all Cxx0 models (as in C750) maybe it should be removed from the release dir. -- Grigorios Prasinos PhD candidate, Computer Engineering and Informatics Dept., U of Patras, Greece http://prasinos.eu/ PGP/GPG Key fingerprint: CDC7 BA79 3C5D 9520 F9F1 FC56 6B2A 2EEB 0227 C528 _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
