[ts-7000] Help with TS-7200 kernel compilation :(

[Balaji Ravindran <>]

Hi People,

Please help am stuck ! !, i download the ts kernel source for 2.6.29 from TS website, and .config from 

http://jandmworks.com/ts7200/linux-2.6.23-rc1-jkc.config

The config file was for 2.6.23, but just answered default options for the config diffs and issued the below commands, and the 

kernel compiled successfully.

make CROSS_COMPILE=../../crosstools/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm

<make was successfull

make CROSS_COMPILE=../../crosstools/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi- ARCH=arm INSTALL_MOD_PATH=../modules modules_install

/sbin/depmod -F ./System.map -v 2.6.29-tside_2 -b../modules > ../modules/lib/modules/2.6.29-tside_2/modules.dep

<everything was successful till here> then i created the binary from the raw vmlinux file using the command

../../crosstools/arm-none-linux-gnueabi/bin/arm-none-linux-gnueabi-objcopy -O binary vmlinux test.bin

<test.bin> was created successfully.

BUT,after

I copied the binary to the tftp folder, and loaded it to the SBC. After that i dont see any other operation other than the Using base address line. Am i missing something here.

I have not created the root file system yet. I just wanted to load the kernel first, and see if it initializes properly...before all the prompt screen comes. 

RedBoot> load -r -v -b 0x00218000 -h 192.168.0.45 test.bin

Using default protocol (TFTP)

|

Raw file loaded 0x00218000-0x0049305f, assumed entry at 0x00218000

RedBoot> exec -c "console=ttyAM0,115200 root=/dev/mtdblock1"

Using base address 0x00218000 and length 0x0027b060

Please help me with this, and tell me if im missing something here. Also if ok, could someone share / (point to a website) their working kernel source with the .config file.

Thanks

Balaji R
