KERNEL-WAND-3.0.35-CM43
Updated kernel includes 160 patches from 'Freescale git'
(http://git.freescale.com/git/cgit.cgi/imx/linux-2.6-imx.git/log/?h=imx_3.0.35_4.0.0)
(rel_imx_3.0.35_4.0.0) that have been sync'd into 'Wandboard git'
(http://repo.or.cz/w/wandboard.git/shortlog/refs/heads/wandboard).
(Reverted ENGR00254267 MX6DL/MX6SL max freq: Fix max cpu freq at 1G on
MX6DL ARD. Results in the loss of 1GHz core speed. 800MHz is the max
with patch applied.)

The latest kernels have dependencies on a new uboot package. The
uEnv.txt file is no longer included in the kernel package, it is
contained in uboot-wandboard-env. I screwed up a little when making the
switch, not providing a clean upgrade path. So if you have any kernels
installed, older than "cm39+". eg. "kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm38+.fc18", you
need to remove them before installing the update, or you wont be able to
install the update due to a conflict with uEnv.txt being owned by two
packages.

So basically, you run...

Code:
--------------------
    
  $ rpm -q kernel-wand
  kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm38+.fc18.armv7hnl
  kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm37+.fc18.armv7hnl
  
--------------------

... which will list the kernels you have installed. Any with a lower
number than "cm39" in the name, you remove them. eg.

Code:
--------------------
    
  sudo yum remove kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm38+.fc18 kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm37+.fc18 
  
--------------------


(NB. Use the package name returned by the "rpm -q", without the
".armv7hnl"!)

Now you install the new kernel...

Install...

Code:
--------------------
    
  sudo csos-cleanInstall-testing kernel-wand-3.0.35-cm43.fc18
  
--------------------


Changes...

--------------------


Anyone not interested in the techy stuff, stop reading.....

Wandboard uboot is included in mainline uboot since 2013.04 release. F18
ARM uses 2012.10. The uboot src rpm I have created for the 2013.04
release does not replace the Fedora uboot package. It just adds 3 new
packages, uboot-wandboard-dl, (which contains the uboot imx binary for
the dual lite board), uboot-wandboard-solo (which contains the uboot imx
binary for the solo board), and uboot-wandboard-env, (which contains
uEnv.txt). Too much of a risk to use the 2013.04 release for omap, tegra
and every other platform that is built from the Fedora uboot. I can't
validate, so I have left alone. (I still want the CSOS image to work on
the BeagleBone, which it currently does.) When Fedora switches to a
later uboot source, which supports the Wandboard, we'll build from that
and drop our standalone package.
