Re: [ts-7000] Re: kernel 2.6 on TS-7200

[Christopher Friedt <>]

I assume that your 'host' machine is running linux natively, and that 
you have a cross toolchain prefixed with 'arm-linux-'

step 1) download this:

wget http://vaiprime.visibleassets.com/~cfriedt/linux-2.6.19-ts7xxx.tar.gz

# feel free to read this long email that was rejected by the
# yahoo mail server for some reason
# http://vaiprime.visibleassets.com/~cfriedt/linux-2.6.19-ts7xxx.txt

step 2)

mkdir stuff && cd stuff
tar xzf linux-2.6.19-ts7xxx.tar.gz

step 3)

# this part assumes your cross-toolchain is in your path and
# prefixed by arm-linux-
sh patch_and_build.sh

step 4)

su

step 5)


echo "/usr/gentoo_root 
192.168.0.0/255.255.0.0(no_root_squash,rw,insecure,sync)"

step 6)

(restart nfs - varies per linux distro)


step 7)

mkdir /usr/gentoo_root && cd /usr/gentoo_root

wget 
http://adelie.polymtl.ca/experimental/arm/stages/armv4l/stage1-armv4l-2005.1.tar.bz2

tar xpvjf stage1-armv4l-2005.1.tar.bz2


step 8)

#load the kernel built in step 3 onto your board via xmodem or tftp


step 9)

run


You should see the kernel output without problems and be set up with a 
prompt when it's done - (i set 'init=/bin/bash' in the CONFIG_CMDLINE 
option of the kernel config ... you can try with /sbin/init but i had a 
couple issues with it... this stage1 filesystem comes with udev too)
