XScale DSP coprocessor detected. VFS: Cannot open root device "ram0" or unknown-block(0,0) Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: 1f00 128 mtdblock0 (driver?) 1f01 512 mtdblock1 (driver?) 1f02 7424 mtdblock2 (driver?) 1f03 8192 mtdblock3 (driver?) 1f04 128 mtdblock4 (driver?) 1f05 128 mtdblock5 (driver?) Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) There was a patch that I never applied as I wasn't sure what the architecture was for these, but seeing this in the boot message ("CPU: XScale-IXP42x Family [690541f2] revision 2 (ARMv5TE), cr=000039ff"), it jogged my memory of this, from the archive.org's snapgear documentation page: "Also available is a patch package that can be used to build the Intel IXP4xx Access Library code as part of the SnapGear distribution. This patch set contains support for the Intel CSR-1.4 with DSR-2.6.2 combination, and the Intel CSR-2.4 library (on both 2.4 and 2.6 linux kernels)." There's also this, but it appears as those RedBoot has already been configured: https://gitorious.org/linux-nios2/uclinux-dist/source/5316285bb1b0a07bd2a2a562ec9397af22dc465d:vendors/SecureComputing/SG560/README > > I would suggest hard setting a command line in your kernel config so that > you have console=ttyS0,115200 set. > I think I saw an old post on how to do that; if I get past the kernel panic, this will be the first thing I do. > > Regards > Greg > > > > On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 9:40 AM, GravyFace <gravyf...@gmail.com <mailto: >> gravyf...@gmail.com>> wrote: >> >> Thanks, I'll give that a go now. >> >> >> On Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 2:24 AM, Greg Ungerer <g...@uclinux.org >> <mailto:g...@uclinux.org>> wrote: >> >> Hi, >> >> >> On 24/08/14 03:26, gravyface wrote: >> >> Hi all, >> >> First time attempting to compile really anything in Linux >> (why not try this? <g>), and hitting a wall with a seemingly pam-auth >> related error. >> >> Build Environment: >> >> - Ubuntu Server 12.04.5 LTS with apt versions of binutils, >> build-essentials, gcc, gdb, curses (libncurses5-dev libncursesw5-dev).
