Hello,

(Apologies if this comes as a duplicate. The first version exceeded the mailing list's message maximum size.)

I would like to upgrade a collection of GTA02s currently running kernel 2.6.29 (old!) and 2.6.34 to something newer.

I thought 3.5 would be a good choice: I heard that Dennis GNUtoo had it working... but I can't even get started!

I am using the om-gta02/3.5/master branch from git://github.com/shr-distribution/linux.git (currently at 7b0ccb3) but I couldn't find any sample kernel configuration files.

I tried to adapt the kernel configuration file we already used to the new version, but I must have done something wrong because the kernel doesn't even receive its command line from the bootloader. Without a valid command line, the kernel doesn't get far:

  Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
[ 0.575000] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0)

Qi claims to be setting the command line as follows:

loglevel=2 console=tty0 console=ttySAC2,115200 init=/sbin/init ro mtdparts=physmap-flash:-(nor);neo1973-nand:0x00040000(qi),0x00040000(depr-ub-env),0x00800000(kernel),0x000a0000(depr),0x00040000(identity-ext2),0x0f6a0000(rootfs) rootfstype=jffs2 root=/dev/mtdblock6

I have attached the configuration file I am trying to use. Does anyone
have an example of a better one?

Thanks
