Ed,
The Cross compiled Kernel boots (using tftp boot)! And so does
bluetooth Rfcomm, the whole point of this excercise. It can bind
to a cell phone with bluetooth and a GPRS modem!!!
I'm impressed. After booting, just to make sure, uname -a shows the
ts8 kernel name along with yesterday's date.
So far I have not been able to store the kernel loaded into memory
from tftp boot to onboard flash.
The developer's manual shows an fis del zimage and fis create zimage
command. The contents of flash don't change after these commands are
issued. fis list shows vmlinux and a few other files I don't know
anything about.
Any suggestions on how the zImage can be stored to on board flash so
the new kernel can be booted without tftp'ing the kernel over?
Thanks
Jim
