Well no usb or ext2ls commands. I searched all over the image. I ran
updatedb, the tried locate. Nothing. Now what?
usb and ext2ls commands are "uboot" commands when you're sitting in the
uboot shell. Also, you might need a "newer" version of uboot to get ext
support.
Hi, Derek, long time no see :)
Fancy meeting you here.
I read the instructions again, and see I missed an important part:
"Depending on the model/version of the plug/uboot, additional uboot
parameters may be necessary or the existing ones could be edited. To
do that, stop the boot process during the countdown and follow the
instructions here. The Fedora 18 Kirkwood images contain an ext3
filesystem that cannot be booted directly by certain plugs (such as
the GuruPlug) at this time. Please follow the appropriate installation
instructions for your device."
So fortunately I am still getting that netconsole to interupt the boot
process and issue these commands...
I am going back to that 8Gb usb drive first. If it works, it gives me
more room to put software on the system.
Well the 8Gb works. It took 2 boots again. Probably something that has
to be done to the usb drive that requires reboot? Anyway, now on to
changing the boot options per:
fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F18/GuruPlug
Thing is should I keep it to booting from the /boot partition or from
NAND? I can see one arguement to keep it as it is, and that is if we
get updated kernels over the next two years?
Also I got a netconsole working by following:
http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,14,14
Now there is a warning NOT to use the fw_setenv that comes in Fedora, as
that would brick the pogo. I am assuming that unless I change these
options I will always have this netconsole? That the boot instructions
to boot off the usb will not change that? If so how might I change what
addresses used for the netconsole now?
