Thanks a bunch. A RAM build of uBoot boots the old kernel fine, so I'll
replace my older uBoot with it. The only trouble I had was stripping
carriage returns out of the patches in that zipfile; after that,
everything went pretty smoothly.
I noticed uBoot is looking for a *.dtb file, as well as the kernel
image. The patchREADME refers to a "dtc" tool, but the URL it gives
(http://ozlabs.org/~dgibson/dtc/dtc.tar.gz) does not exist. So I
googled and found git://ozlabs.org/srv/projects/dtc/dtc.git, and tried
to compile kuroboxHG.dts, with the command line specified within that file:
$ dtc -f -I dts -O dtb -o kuroboxHG.dtb -V 16 kuroboxHG.dts
DTC: dts->dtb on file "kuroboxHG.dts"
ERROR: Missing /chosen node
Input tree has errors
So, uh... is the *.dts file in 2.6.20-rc2 bad, or am I compiling it
wrongly? (And is this normally done by hand, or as part of the kernel
build process?)
Thanks,
mark
