Regarding the keyboard: have you checked whether all the necessary modules were loadad by /etc/rc.d/rc.modules ? some modules may not get autoloaded automatically.
Regards David Da: lee jones <[email protected]> Oggetto: Re: [ARMedslack] Armedslack on the Efika i.MX515 (ARM Cortex-A8 800MHz) A: [email protected] Data: Mercoledì 31 agosto 2011, 14:45 Ok here's a tidied up list of what I've tried (second attempt) at installing armedslack on the Efika MX smartbook. ---- Armedslack Version used = slack-13.1-miniroot_14Jun10.tar.xz Efika mx modules/kernel version = 2.6.31.14.22 0. Notes * This dosen't work properly yet - currently boots to a command line, but keyboard is unusable. 1. Grab an SD card and partition it into two partitons Partition 1 - 100MB EXT3 Partition 2 - Rest of card EXT4 2. Format both partitions on a linux system. Use mkfs.ext3 for the ext3 partiton, and use mkfs.ext4 for the ext4 partition. 3. Download the slack 13.1 miniroot file from here; ftp://ftp.armedslack.org/armedslack/armedslack-devtools/minirootfs/roots/slack-13.1-miniroot_14Jun10.tar.xz 4. Download the following files from here; [1] http://ausil.us/smartbook/boot-2.6.31.14.22-efikamx.tar [2] http://ausil.us/smartbook/modules-2.6.31.14.22-efikamx.tar [3] http://ausil.us/smartbook/firmware.tar.bz2 [4] http://steubentech.com/~talon/Efika-MX/mavericksd/boot.tar.xz 5. Extract two scripts from [4] - these are the files "script-prep" and "kernel-prep". 6. Extract the contents of [1] onto the first partition of the SD card. Move the files into the "boot" directory into the root of the first partition of the SD card. Delete the directories "dracut" and "grub". 7. Extract the files from the slack distro onto the second partition of the SD card, e.g. tar -xf slack-13.1-miniroot_14Jul10.tar.xz -C /where/you/mounted/the/second/partition 8. Extract the files from [2] and [3] onto the second partition of the SD card. 9. On the second SD card partition edit /etc/inittab and comment out the line starting with "s0:1234", put a # in front of that line to comment it out. 9. On the second SD card partition edit /etc/fstab and add the following; /dev/mmcblk0p2 / ext4 defaults 1 1 /dev/mmcblk0p1 /boot ext3 defaults 0 0 10. On the first partition when the files in [1] were extracted you should have a boot.scr.in file. Edit this to look as follows; setenv ramdisk uInitrd; setenv kernel uImage; setenv bootargs console=tty1 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 selinux=0 rootwait ro; ${loadcmd} ${ramdiskaddr} ${ramdisk}; if imi ${ramdiskaddr}; then; else setenv bootargs ${bootargs} noinitrd; setenv ramdiskaddr ""; fi; ${loadcmd} ${kerneladdr} ${kernel} if imi ${kerneladdr}; then bootm ${kerneladdr} ${ramdiskaddr} fi; 11. Boot the efika MX and allow it to boot the default linux (ubuntu) install. Insert the SD card, open a command line to where the SD card (1st partition) is mounted and do the following; sudo ./script-prep boot.scr.in boot.scr 12. Reboot the efika MX smartbook, leave the SD card in the SD slot. ljones -----Segue allegato----- _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list [email protected] http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
