| 01:43:52 | boodle | Hello |
| 01:44:36 | boodle | sh /home/inferno/install/Linux-386.sh /home/inferno |
| 01:44:36 | boodle | Inferno Third Edition (21 Jul 2000) main (pid=2689) compile |
| 01:44:36 | boodle | SYS: process syscall faults: Segmentation violation |
| 01:44:36 | boodle | /home/inferno/install/Linux-386.sh: line 27: 2689 Killed $CDPATH/$EMUPATH/emu -c1 -G -r$CDPATH /dis/install/install.dis -r $1 -p Linux |
| 01:45:05 | boodle | I keep getting this trying to install Inferno on my debian-sid laptop.. any ideas why the fault ? |
| 02:03:08 | Aelhaz | boodle: wish i knew, sorry |
| 02:08:30 | boodle | Aelhaz: me too :) np |
| 03:16:58 | BZFlag | boodle: you get emu running? |
| 03:18:21 | BZFlag | I suspect you need an update to "emu" for the 2.4 kernel. I'll put mine up on the site. |
| 03:20:49 | BZFlag | http://TuxScreen.net/download/inferno/ linuxemu.gz |
| 03:38:07 | boodle | BZFlag: yes got it going thanks.. and yes, was needing the linuxemu.gz from your site :) |
| 03:46:27 | BZFlag | nice. |
| 03:48:54 | BZFlag | so did you get unlocked and flashed? |
| 03:49:33 | boodle | BZFlag: heh not yet.. busy wasting time elsewhere but hope too soon |
| 04:51:59 | BZFlag | seems to be some progress on the QuickCam VC parallel port webcam. that would make a nice $30 add on if there is indeed a parallel port on the main board. |
| 04:55:31 | BZFlag | hmmm... I think the one parallel interface refered to is the LCD driver. ;-( |
| 12:16:53 | boodle | Help! Anyone here?? |
| 12:17:06 | boodle | needs pointing to blob file + md5sum.. |
| 12:20:07 | boodle | nevermind.. used jflash.tgz |
| 12:27:29 | boodle | Anyone here??? (trying to 'flash kernel' but no 'progress' dots.. do I need to re-apply 12v?) |
| 12:35:41 | boodle | eyed sodimm sitting next to him and reinserted it :p |
| 12:41:17 | boodle | I guess 12v still needed and I'm not hitting it this time and/or starting it at right time... bbl |
| 14:47:58 | | i guess hello is any one around? |
| 14:47:58 | boodle | hello? |
| 14:48:08 | boodle | thwaps ibot |
| 14:52:32 | | Sorry, nikos, I'll keep my mouth shut. |
| 14:52:32 | nikos | ibot: shut up |
| 14:53:28 | boodle | nikos: heya.. have you installed linux on a tuxscreen perchance? |
| 14:53:36 | boodle | trying to load kernel.. |
| 14:53:51 | nikos | boodle: No, I haven't gotten one yet. |
| 14:53:57 | boodle | nikos: ok |
| 14:54:11 | Morn | boodle: I'm about to try this week. |
| 14:54:24 | Morn | I just have to get the silly flash unprotected. |
| 14:54:56 | boodle | Morn: I have the blob installed and need to know if I need to apply 12v again just before 'flash kernel' |
| 14:55:39 | Morn | As far as I understand once you have unlocked the flash it is unlocked and you don't need to do it again |
| 14:55:49 | boodle | has electric tape up to his eyeballs to keep lines on little spots near sodimm |
| 14:55:53 | Morn | But, I'm no expert on this |
| 14:56:24 | boodle | hmm it hangs at flash kernel step.. no dots generated to show progress (per wiki) |
| 14:57:29 | boodle | trying again |
| 15:35:15 | Aelhaz | yes, but the flash is unlocked whenever 12v is applied. maybe he didn't check to see that the blocks were still unlocked after taking off 12v? |
| 17:11:16 | mallum | Hi Russ |
| 17:11:22 | Russ | morning |
| 17:11:49 | mallum | Compiled Python against uClibc :) |
| 17:12:43 | Russ | nice |
| 17:14:07 | mallum | any joy with the DSP stuff ? |
| 17:15:04 | Russ | no time yet |
| 17:37:26 | mallum | is away: dinner |
| 18:33:15 | boodle | Anyone on who has installed linux on tuxscreen yet (I have a question on kernel flashing step) |
| 18:34:36 | Russ | blob, or kernel |
| 18:35:43 | boodle | kernel.. when I do 'flash kernel' it seems to hang (can post console output if ok) |
| 18:37:03 | boodle | It uploads ok but after a 'flash kernel' I get the following: |
| 18:37:03 | boodle | blob> flash kernel |
| 18:37:03 | boodle | Saving kernel to flash WriteBlocksFromMem(): Flashing 0x000DCED8 bytes from 0xC0008000 to 0x00008000 |
| 18:37:03 | boodle | get_flash_memptr: meminfo: 000041CC |
| 18:37:03 | boodle | get_flash_memptr: meminfo->nsect: 00000023 |
| 18:37:04 | boodle | get_flash_memptr: meminfo->sec[sector].base -> 00000000 |
| 18:37:06 | boodle | get_flash_memptr: *address -> 00000000 |
| 18:37:08 | boodle | .before flash_write_dword_ub |
| 18:37:10 | boodle | flash_write_dword_ub: before WRITE_FLASH(DONT_CARE, 0x00A000A0); |
| 18:37:12 | boodle | flash_write_dword_ub: before WRITE_FLASH(address, data); |
| 18:37:14 | boodle | It just sits there at this point. I have the sodimm installed (tried without and with 12v applied too). |
| 18:37:17 | boodle | I get no 'progress dots' indicating writing taking place. |
| 18:37:19 | boodle | king place. |
| 18:38:04 | Aelhaz | hmm |
| 18:38:09 | Russ | maybe the unlock didn't complete? |
| 18:38:15 | Aelhaz | i haven't seen that |
| 18:38:31 | Russ | the first step is to erase the sectors |
| 18:38:35 | Aelhaz | with 12v applied, it shouldn't be locked anyway |
| 18:38:40 | boodle | the blob version I'm using is 1.08-pre2 |
| 18:38:45 | Aelhaz | boodle: sometimes it's very, very slow |
| 18:38:53 | Russ | oh |
| 18:38:55 | boodle | Aelhaz: I let it sit for about 20min... |
| 18:38:56 | Russ | thats why... |
| 18:39:05 | Russ | 1.0.8-pre2 stock? |
| 18:39:09 | boodle | anyway to upgrade blob ? |
| 18:39:26 | Russ | you definately want 2.0.3 |
| 18:39:45 | boodle | Russ: how to upgrade? (I hope!!) |
| 18:39:46 | Russ | 1.0.8-pre2 stock didn't have amd flash support |
| 18:39:53 | boodle | Russ: ok..... |
| 18:40:02 | Russ | 1.0.8-pre2 stock cannot flash itself |
| 18:40:07 | boodle | groans |
| 18:40:18 | boodle | jtag or bust"? |
| 18:40:18 | Russ | and even if it could, it doesn't understand amd flash |
| 18:40:24 | Russ | where did you get blob?L |
| 18:40:34 | boodle | just a sec..fetching url |
| 18:41:02 | boodle | http://tuxscreen.net/download/jflash.tar.gz |
| 18:41:28 | Russ | ok, so you have tim's hacked blob |
| 18:41:29 | boodle | I got it starting from InstallingLinux wiki page.. blob.tar.gz is src only and then d/l'd that and saw blob so went with it :( |
| 18:41:45 | boodle | Russ: does that offer anything to get out of this? |
| 18:41:53 | Russ | I think that might be able to flash the kernel/ramdisk, and then from there, flash blob |
| 18:41:54 | Aelhaz | i think at that point you have to use jtag |
| 18:41:59 | Russ | would have to ask tim |
| 18:42:02 | Aelhaz | no, wait |
| 18:42:16 | boodle | I fired off an e-mail to him earlier today.. |
| 18:42:18 | Aelhaz | You *should be able to download a new blob and run it from ram |
| 18:42:24 | boodle | with all detail (including blob version) |
| 18:42:26 | Aelhaz | I've done that before |
| 18:42:32 | boodle | Aelhaz: great! how? |
| 18:42:37 | boodle | oh! |
| 18:42:38 | boodle | WAIT. |
| 18:42:48 | boodle | like downloading kernel and boot at that ram address |
| 18:42:51 | Russ | Aelhaz: blob 1.0.8-pre2 doesn't do that |
| 18:42:53 | Aelhaz | yup |
| 18:42:57 | Russ | ah, yah |
| 18:43:02 | boodle | :) |
| 18:43:04 | Russ | that *might* work |
| 18:43:17 | Aelhaz | Russ: Well, the last time i did it, it was a hacked up version of the blob |
| 18:43:18 | Russ | you may have to modify the source |
| 18:43:19 | boodle | ok umm where will blob go to (addr) so I know what to exec |
| 18:43:39 | boodle | Russ: will it groan on register states possibly ? |
| 18:44:17 | Russ | It copies itself from flash to ram |
| 18:44:32 | Russ | but first, it screws with ram... |
| 18:44:47 | boodle | hmmm |
| 18:45:21 | boodle | with the blob I have, it either let's me download kernel or ram so try as ram? |
| 18:45:27 | Russ | so you probably use the second stage of blob |
| 18:45:39 | Russ | ram, you mean ramdisk |
| 18:45:42 | boodle | Russ: yes |
| 18:45:59 | Russ | you'd probably want to put the second stage of blob at the kernel address |
| 18:46:08 | Russ | then download the full blob |
| 18:46:13 | Russ | then flash that |
| 18:48:26 | boodle | Russ: so I'd have to build a '2nd stage blob image' to upload? |
| 18:48:45 | Russ | if you look at the blob 2.0.3 sources, you'll see what I mean |
| 18:48:54 | boodle | Russ: ok thanks |
| 18:48:59 | Russ | it makes the first stage, and second stage, then cats them together |
| 18:52:09 | boodle | Russ: ok. after uploading I'd just do a straight 'boot' cmd ? |
| 18:54:35 | Russ | right |
| 18:55:14 | boodle | ok. I recently migrated to a new hdrive so am reinstalling toolchain for blob compilation :(... will take a while (copying all my old libs,etc for ipaq stuff) |
| 18:55:26 | boodle | Thank you for your help! |
| 18:55:49 | Russ | just get the prebuilt toochain from erikm |
| 18:55:56 | boodle | will take a look |
| 18:56:23 | boodle | is away: blobbing around |
| 19:16:00 | Russ | thats really funny |
| 19:16:10 | Russ | I book I just bought is mentioned on the onion |
| 19:16:14 | Russ | http://www.theonion.com/onion3729/stephen_jay_gould.html |
| 19:16:26 | Russ | (brian Greene, the elegant universe) |
| 19:52:19 | Russ | hey tim |
| 19:58:35 | Aelhaz | bah, power outage |
| 19:58:41 | Aelhaz | I've got UPSs beeping at me in stereo |
| 19:58:47 | BZFlag | neat. |
| 19:58:51 | BZFlag | things are fine here. |
| 19:59:30 | BZFlag | rikers.org really needs a UPS again since the battery went dead on the one I have |
| 20:35:39 | AlHaz | not a power outage, one of the circuits is tripped and won't un-trip |
| 20:35:53 | AlHaz | naturally it's the circuit for all the outlets on the ground floor |
| 20:36:11 | AlHaz | I've unplugged everything, and it won't come back |
| 20:36:40 | AlHaz | here's the weird part. On the tripped circuit, my outlet tester says there's an open neutral |
| 20:37:00 | AlHaz | on the porch outlets, which are supposed to be on another circuit, it's just dead. |
| 20:37:21 | AlHaz | wonder if they mucked something up when they installed the sprinkler system, and it's only just now gone south |
| 20:54:47 | boodle | is back (gone 01:58:00) |
| 20:55:07 | boodle | Hello.. can someone please point me to the blob 2.03 source code ? |
| 20:56:27 | boodle | Is the tuxscreen sourceforge cvs blob directory 2.03 or 1.09? |
| 21:04:45 | boodle | is away: dinner |
| 21:06:31 | Russ | its on sf |
| 21:06:38 | Russ | the sf blob project |
| 21:13:16 | mallum | is back (gone 03:35:49) |
