hmm... maybe try asking in #oe |

the monotone server is still down, so i can't even get the initial packages to build OE :/ |

so.. tell me |
| [09:36:14] |
<unrest> |
this subscription-wanting devices: can we boot oe from em? |
| [09:36:51] |
<unrest> |
or can it be that the z2 dislikes microSD cards in an adaptor to miniSD? |
| [09:37:13] |
<drmikecrowe> |
I haven't tried it yet, to tell you the truth. The backend setup for the subscription model was a pain, and has taken up a huge chunk of my time. |
| [09:37:31] |
<unrest> |
may i mention that it sucks? ;) |
| [09:37:41] |
<unrest> |
mind trying it now? o.o |
| [09:38:11] |
<jhaluska> |
oh |
| [09:38:23] |
<jhaluska> |
unrest: That might not work if the Z2 is using a SPI interface |
| [09:38:40] |
<GPSFan> |
unrest: I use micro sd in mini sd adapters in both of mine, they work fine. Except, that the mini sd adapters are not too well built and sometimes don't make good contact with the micro sd pins. |
| [09:38:42] |
<drmikecrowe> |
I want to, but I can't right now. I don't have an OE build in place, sorry. it's on my list of things to rebuild, but I just haven't had time |
| [09:38:48] |
<jhaluska> |
The microSD cards are not guaranteed to support the SPI interface, only mini and full sized. |
| [09:38:59] |
<drmikecrowe> |
unrest, what sucks? the subscription? |
| [09:39:29] |
<unrest> |
drmikecrowe, yeah... well. it gives *you* more customers due to a lower price, but i actually dislike it. |
| [09:39:39] |
<unrest> |
*you* meaning your company |
| [09:40:43] |
<unrest> |
GPSFan, i got one from kingston and i assume they produce good goods.. |
| [09:40:56] |
<jhaluska> |
Me neither, it doesn't seem like a person is getting enough for the subscription cost. |
| [09:41:18] |
<jhaluska> |
unrest: Did you read what I said about the SPI interface on micro SDs? |
| [09:41:28] |
<unrest> |
jhaluska, did you read what GPSFan wrote? |
| [09:41:29] |
* |
jhaluska interfaced with SD cards and read a lot of the documentation. |
| [09:41:46] |
<jhaluska> |
unrest: Yes, the SPI interface may or may not be present on microSD cards. |
| [09:42:04] |
<unrest> |
oh. on micro sd cards... |
| [09:42:21] |
<jhaluska> |
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secure_Digital_card |
| [09:42:47] |
<jhaluska> |
Under "Technical Explanation" "All memory cards must support all three modes, except for microSD where SPI is optional." |
| [09:43:02] |
<unrest> |
crap |
| [09:43:14] |
<unrest> |
but it "boots" to the fatroot, as it runs z2script.. |
| [09:43:30] |
<jhaluska> |
hmm, so its reading the card? |
| [09:43:40] |
<unrest> |
yup |
| [09:43:51] |
<jhaluska> |
So it sounds like yours has it. |
| [09:43:57] |
<jhaluska> |
Otherwise it wouldn't run at all. |
| [09:44:48] |

.. |
| [09:45:36] |
<drmikecrowe> |
unrest, sorry, I haven't been following what you are trying to do. Are you trying to boot to an ext2 partition? |
| [09:45:47] |
<unrest> |
drmikecrowe, kinda |
| [09:46:10] |
<unrest> |
first it's fat and then the z2 is rebooted to a ext partition |
| [09:46:21] |
<drmikecrowe> |
T0mW and others had a full boot system which booted to the fatroot and then switched to the ext2 partition to continue |
| [09:46:28] |
<unrest> |
yeah |
| [09:46:31] |
<drmikecrowe> |
seems like one of the projects had that |
| [09:46:36] |

that's what i want |

GPSFan, can you check for me if /lib is present in the fatroot? |
| [09:48:39] |
<drmikecrowe> |
sorry, that's the prob with coming in late on the conv. ;) |
| [09:48:51] |
<unrest> |
np ;) |
| [09:49:21] |
<unrest> |
my problem is that gspi.ko is loaded from /lib, but idk if it's there |
| [09:50:00] |
<unrest> |
ok, it isn'T |
| [09:51:00] |
<unrest> |
or maybe it is... idk.. |
| [09:51:11] |
<unrest> |
GPSFan, is there? |
| [09:52:35] |
<GPSFan> |
unrest: sorry, distracted for a bit, I have a toshiba and 2 sandisk micro sd cards both work. |
| [09:53:05] |
<unrest> |
GPSFan, is there a directory named lib on the fat partition? |
| [09:53:32] |
<GPSFan> |
unrest: which fatroot, I don't use the stuff posted, I use the stuff I built with buildroot. I've never had any success booting a OE generated image, or building one for that matter. |
| [09:53:49] |
<drmikecrowe> |
unrest,it is. /lib is in the root partition (not the sd card). that should be a default module we provide |
| [09:53:58] |
<unrest> |
GPSFan, oh, my fault.. sry |
| [09:54:08] |
<unrest> |
drmikecrowe, so this is not the problem.. |
| [09:54:33] |
<drmikecrowe> |
sorry, paying attention now. what exactly is the prob? |
| [09:54:51] |
<unrest> |
"switch_root: bad newroot /sysroot" |
| [09:55:00] |
<unrest> |
when trying to boot from the sd card |
| [09:55:36] |
<unrest> |
i can't see where the problem may be from looking at z2script.sh.. |
| [09:55:53] |
<drmikecrowe> |
are you trying to load the wireless driver after you switch? |
| [09:56:05] |
<unrest> |

<unrest> |
http://rafb.net/p/bmxd9Z70.html |

<drmikecrowe> |
mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /sysroot |
| [09:59:59] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Did this generate an error? Can you do a "ls -l /sysroot > /mnt/sd0/sysroot.txt"? |
| [10:00:36] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Make sure that your new root is actually mounted? |
| [10:00:40] |
<unrest> |
i can run nothing after getting this error |
| [10:00:44] |
<unrest> |
it doesn't boot |
| [10:01:10] |
<drmikecrowe> |
ok, if you do: |
| [10:01:13] |
<unrest> |
im might add it to the script... |
| [10:01:18] |
<drmikecrowe> |
ls -l /sysroot > /mnt/sd0/sysroot.txt |
| [10:01:19] |
<drmikecrowe> |
sync |
| [10:01:35] |
<drmikecrowe> |
That will output the directory to sysroot.txt on the sd card so you can verify that it is there |
| [10:01:43] |
<unrest> |
how without a valid shell?` |
| [10:01:53] |
<unrest> |
or do you mean in the script? |
| [10:02:10] |
<drmikecrowe> |
right -- modify your script, add teh above as debugging code to insure you are mounting what you expected |
| [10:02:42] |
<drmikecrowe> |
write it to the sd card so you can remove and examine on your PC |
| [10:04:15] |
<unrest> |
hasn't even been reated |
| [10:04:19] |
<unrest> |
created* |
| [10:04:46] |
<drmikecrowe> |
the output from the ls? |
| [10:04:56] |
<unrest> |
the sysroot.txt |
| [10:05:44] |
<drmikecrowe> |
you included the "sync" line after that? that flushes the write and insures it's written to the SD card |
| [10:06:08] |
<unrest> |
sure |
| [10:06:42] |
<unrest> |
i added it right after the mount of mmcfnord to /sysroot |
| [10:07:13] |
<drmikecrowe> |
it should go after the ls >> sysroot.txt command (to flush that file to disk) |
| [10:07:27] |
<unrest> |
... |
| [10:07:27] |
<drmikecrowe> |
the other thing you could do is: |
| [10:07:38] |
<drmikecrowe> |
ls -l /sysroot > /mnt/sd0/sysroot.txt |
| [10:07:39] |
<drmikecrowe> |
sync |
| [10:07:43] |
<drmikecrowe> |
poweroff |
| [10:07:46] |
<unrest> |
i added both lines after the "mount /blabla/mmcfnord /sysroot" |
| [10:08:07] |
<drmikecrowe> |
OK. The above would write the file and then shut down. See if that works |
| [10:09:32] |
<unrest> |
it's empty |
| [10:09:39] |
<unrest> |
the file i mean |
| [10:10:54] |
<unrest> |
the second (the ext2 one) partition is full.. |
| [10:11:08] |
<unrest> |
i guess it should have shown whats on that second partition, right? |
| [10:12:30] |
<unrest> |
can it be that the device that is mounted isn't the real second partition? |
| [10:14:59] |
<drmikecrowe> |
That's what I was wondering. It's strange that it doesn't write that file, though |
| [10:20:27] |
<drmikecrowe> |
unrest, here's another technique: try this: |
| [10:21:09] |
<drmikecrowe> |
mkdir /mnt/sd0/sysroot |
| [10:21:27] |
<drmikecrowe> |
cp -R /sysroot /mnt/sd0/sysroot |
| [10:21:52] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Of course, that will fill up your fat root if it is working. However, if it is empty, then you know something is wrong |
| [10:22:43] |
<unrest> |
if ls doesn't show anything, there'll be nothing to copy... |
| [10:22:45] |
<drmikecrowe> |
Need to disconnect. Back online later today... |
| [10:23:01] |

| [10:23:02] |

wb Mike |
| [13:59:22] |
<unrest> |
i got OE booted. it was Kingston's fault |
| [13:59:31] |
<unrest> |
_but_ wireless doth not work |
| [13:59:36] |
<unrest> |
any idea? |
| [13:59:38] |
<jhaluska> |
hmm, that blows |
| [13:59:54] |
<unrest> |
it works in your app, but not in OE |
| [13:59:59] |
<unrest> |
iwlist eth0 scan works |
| [14:00:41] |
<unrest> |
but setting the essid not |
| [14:01:23] |
<unrest> |
gives me "error for wireless request "Set ESSID"" |
| [14:15:50] |
<unrest> |
drmikecrowe, how does the original application set the wireless accesspoint - namely the essid of it? |

unrest builds the OE image again with wpa_supplicant included and hopes that this will solve his problem |
| [14:29:31] |
<g1powermac_PB> |
unrest: are you using the wifi kernel module from the original system? |
| [14:29:47] |
<unrest> |
yup |
| [14:29:51] |
<g1powermac_PB> |
if you don't, then you won't get wifi as there aren't linux drivers yet for that module |
| [14:29:53] |
<g1powermac_PB> |
k |
| [14:30:00] |
<unrest> |
at least (looking ath z2script etc.) i think so |
| [14:31:02] |
<unrest> |
according to openzipit it should work out of the box (even on OE), but apparently it doesn't |
| [14:33:48] |
<unrest> |
didn't help.. :| |
| [14:34:59] |
* |
unrest tries the base-image again |
| [14:49:41] |
* |
unrest starts crying |
| [14:53:03] |
<jhaluska> |
unrest: Frustrated? |
| [14:54:03] |
<unrest> |
yep |
| [14:54:14] |
<jhaluska> |
At least you have it booting |
| [14:55:48] |
<unrest> |
to a useless shell... ^^ |
| [15:32:02] |
* |
jhaluska wishes he could boot his Z2 to a useless shell |
| [15:36:32] |
<unrest> |
want my image? |
| [15:40:50] |
<unrest> |
jhaluska |
| [15:43:31] |
<jhaluska> |
yes |
| [15:44:44] |
<unrest> |
where shall i upload it? |
| [15:44:59] |
<jhaluska> |
Can you email? |
| [15:45:40] |
<unrest> |
no such big files |
| [15:45:44] |
<unrest> |
i'll use rapidshare |
| [15:46:18] |
<jhaluska> |
Thats cool with me |
| [15:46:53] |
<unrest> |
84mb |
| [15:47:01] |
<unrest> |
although it's only the base image ;) |
| [15:47:08] |
<jhaluska> |
cool :D |
| [15:47:12] |
<jhaluska> |
Did you compress it? |
| [15:47:33] |
<unrest> |
the original .tar |
| [15:47:42] |
<unrest> |
well.. it's got gcc, g++, perl, make etc. |
| [15:47:48] |
<jhaluska> |
oooh |
| [15:47:51] |
<unrest> |
that's the reason for the image being that big |
| [15:47:58] |
<jhaluska> |
Good stuff |
| [15:48:27] |
<unrest> |
~13 minutes remaining.. |
| [15:48:40] |
<jhaluska> |
Not in a big rush, doing work stuff |
| [15:49:33] |
<alyawn> |
right... my base image is 7.4MB and my minimalist-gpe is 26MB |
| [15:49:43] |
<alyawn> |
(no dev tools, though) |
| [15:50:26] |
<alyawn> |
of course... still no z2 so can't test... |
| [15:50:50] |
* |
alyawn tracks his shipment... again... |
| [15:51:17] |
<unrest> |
alyawn, yeah, those dev tool are _big_... but worth it, imho |
| [15:51:24] |
<unrest> |
where are you located? |
| [16:03:53] |
<unrest> |
jhaluska! |
| [16:03:57] |
<unrest> |
for you: http://rapidshare.com/files/130202813/Angstrom-base-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r18-zipit2.rootfs.tar.html |
| [16:03:58] |

:) |
| [16:03:59] |
<jhaluska> |
oh me? |
| [16:04:04] |
<jhaluska> |
I thought you were talking to alyawn |
| [16:04:10] |
<jhaluska> |
I'm in New Jersey, USA |
| [16:06:48] |
<unrest> |
yeah, i was talking to him.. ;) |
| [16:07:09] |
<jhaluska> |
It's downloading, it'll take a while. |
| [16:07:14] |
<unrest> |
i just felt like highlighting you :) |
| [16:07:48] |
<unrest> |
sure |
| [16:18:41] |
<unrest> |
does anyone know if it's prohibited to extract the wireless drivers from the running system? |
| [16:19:30] |
<jhaluska> |
And if it was, would that stop you? :P |
| [16:20:43] |
<unrest> |
yes |
| [16:21:44] |
<jhaluska> |
:D |
| [16:21:53] |
<jhaluska> |
You're such a goody two shoes. ;) |
| [16:22:14] |
<unrest> |
what's that mean? |
| [16:23:03] |
<jhaluska> |
Oh |
| [16:23:15] |
<jhaluska> |
I forgot you're not native. |
| [16:23:29] |
<jhaluska> |
Really old slang for a good person who is so good its not fun. |
| [16:24:25] |
<unrest> |
ah, k =) |
| [16:26:45] |
<jhaluska> |
I wouldn't use it unless you mean to insult somebody :P |
| [16:27:27] |
<unrest> |
you just lost 10 charisma points |
| [16:27:27] |
<unrest> |
:p |
| [16:28:11] |
<jhaluska> |
Well it's a pretty weak insult. |
| [16:29:38] |
<unrest> |
well.. extracting the firmware didn't help, as i can't remove the modules loaded on bootup.. |
| [16:29:50] |
<unrest> |
so inserting them into the kernel is pointless |
| [16:30:20] |
* |
unrest is pissed |
| [16:32:05] |
<jhaluska> |
Going Hulk on us? |
| [16:32:33] |
<unrest> |
nah |
| [16:33:05] |
<unrest> |
if it was day and if then theweather was good i'd go out and ride my bike.. but none of these two conditions applies.. |
| [16:35:56] |
<unrest> |
i'm pretty pissed as i now see that it sets wireless-nick, wireless-channel, wireless-key, wireless-mode, but ont wireless-essid which is why i cannot connect to my fucking accespoint |
| [16:37:16] |
<jhaluska> |
I wish I knew enough to help you. |
| [16:37:35] |
<unrest> |
i wish i was smarter.. ;/ |
| [16:37:41] |
<jhaluska> |
Me too, it would come in handy |
| [16:38:04] |
<unrest> |
indeed :) |
| [16:38:16] |
<unrest> |
it's a pity none of the officials is here.. |
| [16:39:10] |
<jhaluska> |
Yeah, Tom had to go and buy himself a house. |
| [16:39:11] |
* |
unrest tries again with wa_supplicant... |
| [16:39:17] |
<unrest> |
yeah, i know |
| [16:46:12] |
<unrest> |
it must (tm) work with wpa_supplicant imho as there's no other way of connecting to a wpa network. and the z2 software is capable of doing that so they must use qpa_supplicant |
| [16:55:54] |
* |
unrest presses thumbs |
| [16:58:52] |
* |
unrest becomes royally pissed at the driver |
| [16:59:25] |
<jhaluska> |
Is there an OE channel? |
| [16:59:36] |
<jhaluska> |
oh look there is and you're in it |
| [16:59:42] |
<unrest> |
jhaluska, mind trying out my build now? |
| [16:59:46] |
<unrest> |
i already did |
| [16:59:54] |
<unrest> |
noone in there was able to help me |
| [17:00:00] |
<jhaluska> |
Well...I want to, but its time for me to go home. |
| [17:00:49] |
<unrest> |
this problem seems to be driver related tho |
| [17:00:50] |
<jhaluska> |
Are you going to be online for much longer? |
| [17:00:56] |
<unrest> |
maybe half an hour |
| [17:01:01] |
<unrest> |
late here in germany ;) |
| [17:01:07] |
<jhaluska> |
Yeah probably about midnight |
| [17:01:13] |
<jhaluska> |
How long does it take to setup the card? |
| [17:01:15] |
<unrest> |
11pm |
| [17:01:21] |
<unrest> |
maybe 2 minutes |
| [17:01:30] |
<unrest> |
likely less |
| [17:01:35] |
<jhaluska> |
ok if you can give me the instructions I'll do it |
| [17:01:49] |
<unrest> |
got the tarball from openzipit? |
| [17:02:32] |
<jhaluska> |
yes |
| [17:02:38] |
<unrest> |
fine |
| [17:03:02] |
<unrest> |
in zipit2-angstrom-pkgs/fatroot you find the script needed |
| [17:03:09] |
<unrest> |
and the fatroot |
| [17:03:15] |
<unrest> |
copy my tarball to that folder |

Was I suppose to untar it to a SD card? |
| [17:04:16] |
<unrest> |
no |
| [17:04:32] |

cd to zipit2-angstrom-pkgs/fatroot |
| [17:04:38] |
<unrest> |
copy my tarball there |
| [17:04:52] |
<unrest> |
insert your sd card and find out which /dev/sdX it is |
| [17:04:55] |
<jhaluska> |
I did: tar xf Angstrom-base-image-glibc-ipk-2007.12-r18-zipit2.rootfs.tar |
| [17:05:25] |
<unrest> |
do not untar it x.x |
| [17:05:40] |
*** |
Mathiasdm has quit IRC |

<unrest> |
if you found out which /dev your sd card is, change the according variable in the prepSDcard script |
| [17:06:14] |
<unrest> |
done with that? |
| [17:06:16] |
<jhaluska> |
No |
| [17:06:22] |
<jhaluska> |
Where is the script if I don't untar it? |
| [17:06:37] |
<unrest> |
in Zipit2/zipit2-angstrom-pkgs/fatroot |
| [17:06:54] |
<unrest> |
while Zipit2 is the folder created when untarring the openzipit.org-OE-tarball |
| [17:07:06] |
<jhaluska> |
ok, hold on |
| [17:08:50] |
<jhaluska> |
How do I fidn out the /dev/sdX? |
| [17:09:46] |
<jhaluska> |
ok its /dev/sdc |
| [17:10:42] |
<unrest> |
edited the prepSDcard.pl? |
| [17:10:49] |
<jhaluska> |
NOt yet, trying to find it |
| [17:11:04] |
<jhaluska> |
found it |
| [17:11:24] |
<unrest> |
then run: .//prepSDcard.pl --partitions --fatroot=fatroot.zip --tarball=WHATEVERYOUNAMEDTHEFILEIGAVEYOU.tar |
| [17:11:24] |
<jhaluska> |
Changed, now what? |
| [17:11:39] |
<jhaluska> |
k |
| [17:12:25] |
<jhaluska> |
Do I wish to continue and repartition? |
| [17:12:47] |
<unrest> |
if you wish to flash the image to the sd card, yes :) |
| [17:13:07] |
<jhaluska> |
hmm, thats not good |
| [17:13:26] |
<jhaluska> |
http://zipit.pastebin.com/d1441c141 |
| [17:13:59] |
<unrest> |
is it locked? |
| [17:14:22] |
<jhaluska> |
How would it be locked? |
| [17:14:56] |
<jhaluska> |
yeah it was |
| [17:15:27] |
<jhaluska> |
Didn't think the dummy lock would do anything |
| [17:15:50] |
<unrest> |
haha ^^ |
| [17:15:58] |
<unrest> |
it's not "dummy" ;) |
| [17:16:06] |
<jhaluska> |
Well the mini sd doesn't have one |
| [17:16:24] |
<jhaluska> |
ok its doing something to the ext3 |
| [17:16:53] |
<unrest> |
yup. flash it =) |
| [17:17:08] |
<unrest> |
when you read "success" throw the card into the z2 and boot |
| [17:17:22] |
<unrest> |
nd then tell me if you can set an ESSID for eth0 please |
| [17:17:28] |
<unrest> |
or even connect to some accesspoint |
| [17:17:50] |
<jhaluska> |
Powering up the Z2 |
| [17:18:29] |
<jhaluska> |
hmm, nothing, is there something special to make it reboot? |
| [17:18:56] |
<jhaluska> |
I mean I powered it up and it comes up normally, I hold down the green button and the same thing |
| [17:19:07] |
<unrest> |
whats on the screen? |
| [17:19:14] |
<unrest> |
hmm |
| [17:19:19] |
<jhaluska> |
Was it necessary to umount the card? |
| [17:19:22] |
<unrest> |
no |
| [17:19:28] |
<unrest> |
shut down the z2 |
| [17:19:37] |
<unrest> |
and remove the battery for a second |
| [17:19:39] |
<unrest> |
reassemble |
| [17:19:51] |
<unrest> |
and then boot with sd card inserted |
| [17:21:12] |
<jhaluska> |
ok, trying to boot again |
| [17:21:17] |
<jhaluska> |
I still get the smiley face |
| [17:21:25] |
<jhaluska> |
This is a 4gb SDHC card btw |
| [17:21:31] |
<jhaluska> |
How big is that image I have a 128 mb card too |
| [17:21:43] |
<jhaluska> |
Will it fit on a 128 mb card? |
| [17:21:51] |
<jhaluska> |
Didn't work |
| [17:22:05] |
<jhaluska> |
Z2 knows when it is inserted and when it isn't btw |
| [17:22:36] |
<unrest> |
afaik it will fit |
| [17:22:58] |
<unrest> |
we might see you try as a proof that the z2 is not capable of sdhc btw ;) |
| [17:23:39] |
<jhaluska> |
Ever put a song on the card and have it play on the Z2? |
| [17:23:55] |
<unrest> |
not yet |
| [17:24:03] |
<jhaluska> |
I mean with their program |
| [17:24:08] |
<jhaluska> |
I wonder if my Z2 is defective |
| [17:25:39] |
<jhaluska> |
I'll mess with it more tomorrow. :( |
| [17:25:52] |
<jhaluska> |
Sheesh this is more difficult than it should be. |
| [17:26:22] |
<unrest> |
there's nothing difficult on using pre-made scripts imho.. ;) |
| [17:26:36] |
<jhaluska> |
When it doesn't work its not simple :P |
| [17:26:50] |
<unrest> |
it (meaning flashing and booting) works fine |
| [17:27:13] |
<unrest> |
only thing that doth not work is teh wireless driver or a combination of the driver and OE |
| [17:27:44] |
<jhaluska> |
Well, I'm too green to be of much help at this point |
| [17:28:11] |
<unrest> |
you got a z2 and my image.. |
| [17:28:16] |
<unrest> |
you're the best help i can actually think of atm |
| [17:28:31] |
<unrest> |
as you can test if it works for you, so i can see i my image is b0rked or not |
| [17:28:34] |
<jhaluska> |
Yeah well I can't nuke the 128 mb card unfortunately :( |
| [17:28:44] |
<jhaluska> |
At least not ATM |
| [17:29:51] |
<unrest> |
Foxx, you there? |
| [17:31:50] |
<jhaluska> |
I'm going home, bbl :) |
| [17:31:55] |
<jhaluska> |
Thanks for the image btw |
| [17:32:12] |
<unrest> |
no problem |
| [17:32:26] |
<unrest> |
report back if wireless works, if you manage to boot it pleasy |

Foxx, in my query to you there's a link to my base-image build (with dev tools included) |
| [17:39:27] |
<unrest> |
do me the _big_ favor of flashing it to a sd card (following the instruction in the openzipit tarball/the site) |
| [17:39:51] |
<unrest> |
and then, i beg you, report back if wireless (setting essid via iwconfig) works |
| [17:42:08] |
<unrest> |
thanks in advance :) |
