That tells me it's not receiving the command line that Qi sent, because that command line contains root=/dev/mtdblock6. -kv ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: Newer kernel (3.5?) for GTA02: suggested kernel config?
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:0x0004(qi),0x0004(depr-ub-env),0x0080(kernel),0x000a(depr),0x0004(identity-ext2),0x0f6a(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?
