Dear Forum,
Yesterday, I've realized that i didn't move boot
package in the good place, i.e the tftboot directory !! This explain why modules
like sd_mod.ko or scsci_mod.ko were not loaded, because I worked always with the
Boel 2.4.25 !!
Then , i have made the same processus with
SystemImager 3.5.2.
Even so, I have always complaint like
Undefined:Disk0, BUT, some modules are loaded, like SD_MOD and
SCSCI_MOD.
I try to built my own Kernel from Front-end,
with the script SI_mkbootpackage, and i got some progress !. Now, I have a
message like : Kernel Panic : Unable to mount root fs. I don't want to play
with mk_bookpackage now.
On the other hand, i will patche the 2.4.25 or/and
the 2.6.9 Boel Kernel to apply libata and Sata_sil from Jeff Garzik. I play
around with 2.4.25 and 2.4.25-libata16.patch from Garzik at home yesterday
evening and i think it will be ok. May be l will have some trouble with 2.4.25
kernel and libata patch, because libata patch for
this kernel don't work very well with SIL3114.
Tell you about this morning.
Cheers
Jerome Lefevre
