Hi,

Are you sure that all paths are correct? Maybe it's copying modules from somewhere else?

WISP-Dist has no module named host_apcs.o.

Okay. I guess I should have taken a closer look at the existing update code.
Sorry.

One final note on the module problem. I can compile the modules just fine
(make modules), but when I do a make modules_install it fails with the
undefined symbols I mentioned earlier. I tracked down the source files that
declare the functions and they are in the source tree. Maybe the makefile or
dependencies are screwed up. Anyway, I'm sure we will iron this out in your
new build environment.

Getting a clean build environment is priority one for me. I stand ready to
help. Please let me know when your ready.

Thanks again for the help,
Gerry

I'm afraid this is impossible, you have to unmount existing partition
in order to mount a new one, which means that you have to stop all the
programs.


Please forgive my limited filesystem knowledge. If everything is running

in


memory, shouldn't I be able to do a raw write to the partition (provided

the


image will fit) and hard reset the box?


This will work if done correctly. Actually this is how existing
WISP-Dist upgrade system works.







Thanks,
Gerry

Hi,

First let me say... Thanks very much for your help. I feel like I'm

trying

to drink from a fire hose!

1. Does this happen in your build? I'm using the src-kernel-2.4.20.tar.gz

from your site.


Module errors? No.




2. I've got a Soekris 4521 and the Netgate(Senaou) 200mW PCMCIA card.

3. Can I just install the latest uClibc distro?

4. There are 3 busybox directories (***-boot, ***-dyn, ***-min). Do I

need

to build all of these?


Actually you don't have to build them at all if you don't want to
modify them.

Can you tell me what you want to be done? This is the easiest way to
approach the problem.




5. I'm trying to understand the proper sequence for building an image.

a) build kernel
b) build modules
c) populate modules
d) build user-progs


only required if you have changed something




e) mount-wcpe
f) prepare-image
g) unmount-wcpe

Is this correct?



Thanks Again,
Gerry

1. I've been able to compile the kernel and modules (2.4.20), but when I

do





a "make modules_install" I get the following unresolved symbols. Any
suggestions?

/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/mtd/maps/sc520cdp.o

mtd_concat_destroy and mtd_concat_create

/lib/modules/2.4.20/kernel/drivers/net/wan/comx.o


Though I don't know what's causing that, I believe they can be ignored.





/lib/modules/2.4.20/pcmcia/host_apcs.o

register_pccard_driver, unregister_pccard_driver, and CardServices

I am building from the ..../linux-dist directory


Can you tell me what do you run exactly? Note that built-in kernel
PCMCIA is not used, pcmcia-cs-3.2.3 is used instead.





2. When I try to build busybox I get errors related to uClibc. Is that

what





it's supposed to link against or do I need to point the makefile to the
libraries installed in the root_fs_woody file system?


uClibc-based busybox is used only for initial boot in initrd.
If you want to change something, you have to install uClibc. Please
note that it doesn't have anything common
with other uClibc-based LEAF variants.
