Hi Praveen, I can recreate the same failure you are seeing. Something is broken in the linaro-media-create that is being installed with:
sudo apt-get install linaro-image-tools ... The first thing I see is the hwpack isn't installing correctly and so probably the rootfs isn't installing either. Using an older branch of linaro-media-create I was able to create a bootable system: bzr branch lp:linaro-image-tools -r 169 Also, the vexpress is usually installed to 2 devices. The boot system to the SD card and rootfs on a USB device. The rootfs on an SD card is really slow. --Matt On 12/07/2010 05:29 AM, Guilherme Salgado wrote: > On Tue, 2010-12-07 at 17:53 +0530, Praveen Arkeri wrote: >> Hi Guilherme, >> >> With headless build image I am still getting same errors as before with >> missing u-boot.bin. >> Detailed command log is here-->http://pastebin.com/ygRQRGe2 > > I don't see anything suspicious there, and I was able to create an image > using the alip tarball.
