Currect debian-installer compile in an armel crosschain and works great, but with a tweak. need to change the machid. Ethernet module of current linux kirkwood, when using a machid of SheevaPlugs or GuruPlugs, take the network link at 10 Mb. I already send a bug report about this. Here what the tests give : > ~ # uname -ar > Linux (none) 2.6.32-5-kirkwood #1 Mon Sep 26 05:14:28 UTC 2011 armv5tel > GNU/Linux > --- > ID (hex) NAME eth0 > 00000690 Marvell DB-88F6281-BP Development Board 1000 Mb/s > 00000691 Marvell RD-88F6192-NAS Development Board 1000 Mb/s > 00000692 Marvell RD-88F6281 Reference Board 1000 Mb/s > 0000078c Marvell 88F6281 GTW GE Board 1000 Mb/s > 00000a76 Marvell eSATA SheevaPlug Reference Board 10 Mb/s > 00000831 Marvell SheevaPlug Reference Board 10 Mb/s > 00000a63 Marvell GuruPlug Reference Board 10 Mb/s >>> The method need to be out-of-box, and simpliest as possible. >>> Like the one you have already done for thecus. >> >> Which device are we talking about here? > > The device is the IcyBox IB-6220-B. > The factory u-boot annouce it as a DB-88F6281A-BP LE. > Its a sheevaplug like device with 256 MiB RAM/NAND only. May be it need to be add to the u-boot and linux. Do not know the process steps to check add for current hardware. Sheevaplugs, with a machid 690 give good results in stock firmware (fedora) and in Debian. Cheers -- Gk2 [:-]
