Over Christmas, I decided to try out Triode's SOA on a Wandboard Dual Lite (rev b). Everything went smoothly, with the small exception that the Arch kernel refuses to warm boot on my hardware. I had to pull the plug several times to get SOA installed. I tried updating the kernel to the "modified" one and also tried replacing the u-boot with one I compiled from sources. All permutations resulted in a working system when booting from a power-on reset, but no success in booting when using "sync; reboot" from the command line. Later versions of the Linux kernel seem to have no such issues (3.18.1-arm7 for example), but I am having trouble reliably initializing the Broadcom WiFi chip with the newer kernel.
I see that this has been discussed earlier in this thread and someone thought that installing irqbalance solved it. Others said the problem improved over time, but I never saw a complete resolution. Is this problem hardware-specific to particular versions of the Wandboard? Overall, I congratulate Triode for making SOA so complete and user-friendly! ---------------------- "Dreamer, easy in the chair that really fits you..." ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dsdreamer's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=12588 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=101624 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
