Those images are built from the exact same packages, so building a tar.gz with OE or narcissus makes no difference. There's nothing stopping you building an image with narcissus, test it and upload it to angstrom-distribution.org with some form of 'stable' blessing attached.
I have a Zaurus SL-C860 and iPAQ hx4700, and have been using Narcissus for a few months now. After some problems getting the images working, I think I've just about sorted it. I got 'Unable to open an initial console' on the Zaurus, so I added a few device nodes and it was okay. There's also a common issue on the hx4700, where the initial account setup screen uses a font that looks like lots of little squares - I believe that it's prompting me for the root password and a user account name. On hx4700 the matchbox-panel doesn't appear by default and I am not able to setup the wireless adaptor without it, so it's lucky that I have a serial cable so I can login and do that.
On a completely different topic, could anyone (Koen?) confirm whether I can boot an old 2.4.18 kernel with kexecboot? I wondered if I could run my old pdaXrom system alongside Angstrom.
Thanks. Lex _______________________________________________ Angstrom-distro-users mailing list Angstrom-distro-users@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/angstrom-distro-users
