16:30.10 | CosmicPenguin | which one? |
16:30.17 | Sieg | hi! if I built a successful bootable compact flash, shouldn't a dd image copy the boot sector as well? I'm trying to clone the flash and the new one just isn't bootable :\ |
16:30.21 | sjhill | it was the Ultimate Linux box a few months ago |
16:30.30 | Sieg | and now if I chroot into the new image to try and run grub manually, I get "/sbin/grub, no such file or directory". Yet ls /sbin/grub shows the file is there indeed |

16:43.00 | file | and, like, I'm cheap |
16:43.06 | T0mW | file: plus the invasive body search at the airport |
16:43.08 | prpplague | andersee: shouldn't these be generated and not checked in like that? |

17:18.06 | _dario | When I'm booting my sistem it the serial console doesn't work |
17:18.31 | prpplague | _dario: might help to provide us some information about your system |
17:18.49 | prpplague | andersee: ok, well i have the patch submitted without compressed patches |
17:18.58 | _dario | uclibc + busybox compiled for an arm9 system. That's all. |

17:19.39 | prpplague | _dario: do you get information from your arm bootloader? |
17:20.29 | _dario | The kernel boots and it founds also the rfs. All is ok since I have an lcd display which displays the login correctly. |
17:21.09 | prpplague | _dario: so do you know for sure that the serial port works? |
17:22.22 | _dario | Yes. For sure. |

17:22.58 | _dario | ::respawn:/sbin/getty -L ttyAM0 115200 vt100 |
17:23.16 | _dario | my serial device is, in fact, ttyAM0. |
17:23.28 | prpplague | _dario: and /dev/ttyAM0 exists? |
17:24.01 | prpplague | andersee: hehe bummer my patch didn't attach to the report as it was bigger than 512k, |
17:24.30 | prpplague | andersee: guess i'll have to do it in two patches |
17:24.31 | _dario | Ehmm.. No :-P |
17:24.46 | _dario | So I should create it with mknod |
17:24.54 | _dario | Right? |
17:26.23 | _dario | Damn.. It was so easy.. I forgot I'm not dealing with a udev system :-P |
17:26.42 | prpplague | _dario: yes you will need to have that device inorder for it to work |
17:26.59 | _dario | Many many thanks :-) |
17:27.03 | prpplague | _dario: you can modify the device_list.txt file to add the device during the build process |
17:27.13 | _dario | Going to reboot my arm9 system :-) ... |
17:27.56 | _dario | Great hint, prpplague! |
17:27.59 | _dario | Thanks! |
17:28.21 | prpplague | _dario: if you are running a ramdisk image the device will have to be in the ramdisk, a reboot will erase the node |
17:29.14 | _dario | There shouldn't be this problem.. |
17:29.35 | _dario | Busybox + uclibc really rocks! |
17:31.10 | prpplague | _dario: yep |
17:31.23 | _dario | Today I built a linux system in 7.5 Mb |

17:48.13 | prpplague | andersee: thanks |
17:48.45 | prpplague | andersee: i'd like to write up a doc with some basic rules for adding new devices |
17:51.59 | prpplague | andersee: next question |
17:52.19 | prpplague | andersee: the buildroot now just asks for the arch type, in this case just "arm" |
17:52.34 | prpplague | andersee: but uclibc has builds for several different arm types |
17:53.07 | prpplague | andersee: shouldn't we add a sub option to the arm config to set the type? |
17:53.29 | prpplague | andersee: as well as the endianesse ? |
18:15.19 | andersee | prpplague: probably so |
18:15.55 | andersee | prpplague: I've left those unspecified (so buildroot prompts) since I've never gotten around to adding such options |
18:16.23 | andersee | prpplague: but specifying those for arches that swing both ways, like arm and mips, would be a good idea |
18:16.35 | andersee | :-) |
18:18.51 | prpplague | andersee: testing now |
18:20.34 | CosmicPenguin | its been literally three years since I've touched that stuff |
18:22.28 | andersee | CosmicPenguin: it is still limping along? |
18:22.47 | andersee | hasn't greg long since lost interest? |
18:23.01 | CosmicPenguin | nah, he's still plugging away |
18:23.18 | CosmicPenguin | nano-x just can't compete with stuff like Twin |
18:23.28 | CosmicPenguin | The future is in vector based drawing |
18:24.35 | andersee | CosmicPenguin: vectors are for wimp. The future is in tensor drawing. |
18:24.39 | andersee | ;-) |
18:25.45 | CosmicPenguin | ph34rs even |

20:10.32 | andersee | prpplague: k, cool |
20:11.58 | prpplague | andersee: assuming it gets accepted i'll add the mmu option as well |
20:12.13 | andersee | sounds like a plan |
20:12.23 | chouimat | hi prpplague andersee |
20:12.32 | prpplague | chouimat: hola |
20:12.36 | andersee | chouimat: howdy |
20:12.52 | prpplague | chouimat: curious though, the uclibc config doesn't give an option for the arm7tdmi |
20:13.09 | chouimat | prpplague: hmmm |
20:14.03 | prpplague | oops that was for andersee |
20:14.12 | prpplague | andersee: curious though, the uclibc config doesn't give an option for the arm7tdmi |
20:14.27 | chouimat | prpplague: I was starting to wonder why you told me this ... probably the sun :) |
20:14.27 | andersee | prpplague: it should... |
20:21.34 | prpplague | andersee: i guess you would probably need to use the generic_arm option |

21:11.55 | prpplague | ug |
21:11.59 | prpplague | some of the comments |
21:12.18 | CosmicPenguin | of course, if I was a java developer, I would be in a state of denial too |

22:42.04 | BeBrA | hi! I'm testing my first image with busybox and I've a problem with getty: I can't login, because I have no prompt for login |
22:42.15 | BeBrA | <PROTECTED> |
22:42.27 | jbevren | heh. my initial tests always had no inittab |
22:42.32 | jbevren | that way it'll spawn an askfirst shell :P |
22:43.27 | jbevren | try without an inittab, it should do an askfirst shell on tty1 |
22:43.35 | jbevren | or an rc script |
22:44.19 | BeBrA | just remove inittab? |
22:44.35 | jbevren | my test setup was just a busybox install, no rcS or inittab |
22:44.48 | jbevren | busybox will spawn as /sbin/init, and do a shell on tty1 |
22:45.08 | jbevren | I do that on one of my laptops for mp3 playback btw.. linux in initramfs with a mp3 player. |
22:45.15 | jbevren | load mp3s to ram, shut the laptop mostly off, and play :) |
22:46.10 | BeBrA | I'm going to modify image and booting on qemu |
22:46.34 | jbevren | heh. I've been arguing with bochs recently to get something of a compaq firmware update |
22:46.37 | jbevren | I did finally get it out |
22:48.29 | BeBrA | hmmm |
22:48.50 | BeBrA | inittab removed and again no shell... |
22:49.10 | BeBrA | hmmm there's still rcS |
22:51.48 | BeBrA | I think I also need to test oe... do you know if it can generate bootable images? |
22:52.34 | BeBrA | it's very tricky how I get this image from ptxdist |
23:01.36 | CosmicPenguin | OE has no trouble generating bootable images |

23:16.58 | BeBrA | hmm ok, bb asks to activate console, but tell me /bin/sh dows not exists... |
23:17.17 | BeBrA | is it enough to create symlink ? |
23:17.20 | jbevren | did you build a shell? heh |
23:17.27 | BeBrA | there's ash |
23:17.41 | jbevren | normally if you build a shell into busybox, it'll launch as sh. A link should work |
23:19.24 | T0mW | whew, 1226 drills (holes) on this PCB |
23:19.41 | T0mW | that's a lot of via's |
23:19.51 | jbevren | do you do your own vias? |
23:19.57 | jbevren | or do you ahve the pcb's made |
23:20.33 | T0mW | ha! I have 4pcb.com do my boards, I won't mess up my house, clothing, countertops, ... with chemicals anymore |
23:21.10 | T0mW | they do a much better job at working with 0.010" traces and 0.007" spacing |
23:21.22 | jbevren | heh |
23:21.23 | jbevren | I bet :P |
23:21.48 | T0mW | btdt, I used to have a laser printer and used that press-n-peel stuff |
23:21.51 | BeBrA | hmmm where d o Isetup busybox to use sh? on default shell i can only choose between ash, hush, lash and msh |
23:22.13 | T0mW | BeBrA: then, that is all you got |
23:22.20 | jbevren | as I said, if you build -a- shell, it should launch as sh :) |
23:22.36 | BeBrA | hmm probably i just need to enable "Standalone shell"? |
23:22.44 | jbevren | that'll help |
23:23.32 | BeBrA | recompiling again ;) |
23:25.03 | T0mW | jbevren: now to run up Win98 and use gcprevue |
23:25.05 | T0mW | :( |
23:25.15 | jbevren | win98? gah. :) |
23:25.37 | T0mW | all tools for linux to view gerbers cost $$$, the win98 stuff is free |
23:25.45 | jbevren | I should um do something other than sit in the same chair Ive been in since 8am |
23:25.55 | jbevren | doesnt pcb read gerbers? |
23:26.04 | T0mW | pcb? |
23:26.38 | jbevren | pcb - printed circuit board (pcb) design program |
23:26.42 | jbevren | debian's apt cache has it |
23:26.54 | jbevren | hm |
23:27.01 | jbevren | it can 'provide .. gerber output' |
23:27.03 | jbevren | wonder if it can read it |
23:27.23 | jbevren | anyway, check it out. I dont like the UI much myself though |
23:27.28 | jbevren | I'm off to do something different :) |
23:27.31 | jbevren | enjoy the eve |
23:30.00 | T0mW | jbevren: not usually, you don't want to use the same program that produced the gerbers to view them. Good to get "another opinion" |
23:30.36 | T0mW | jbevren: early versions of OrCAD would do that, fsck up the viewing of the gerber |
23:34.22 | BeBrA | do you know where I can get a 40 pin (male or female) ide adapter to *male* 44 pin IDE |
