Final note for anyone interested: I finally got the kernel built with CONFIG_HZ=1000, which was the only change I ever needed. It seems to work just fine and will probably work even better when I get it directly on the MTD instead of the SD card, because we stripped out all of useless [to us] junk off that. It turns out that, at least on the Ubuntu 8.10 system I was using as my x86 linux host, changing CONFIG_HZ in the ts7800_defconfig and/or ts7800full_defconfig files has absolutely no effect because after the make ts7800_defconfig command completes, one of the first things that the make command does is to run scripts/kconfig/conf -s arch/arm/Kconfig which proceeds to use arch/arm/Kconfig to ge nerate yet another .config which is then used for the kernel build. The CONFIG_HZ setting (and I don't know what else) comes from the default value in Kconfig. I'm sure this was probably totally obvious to all of the linux kernel gurus here, but totally unexpected by me. I foolishly thought that updating the ts7800_defconfig would change the parameters I was using to build the kernel with for my ts7800. Oh well, it compiled. It appears to work. Hopefully I'm done. Thanks for listening. If that the things I learned (and shared) help at least one other person, then I'm happy. To the person at Technologic who was "helping": hopefully your next customer will fare better, in replies if not in success. Good bye. __._,_.___
