Hello, I have built kernel 2.6.31.6 with modules and a generic ramdisk that works for some combinations of Kirkwood-based devices (Sheevaplug and QNAP TS-[12]19) and devices carrying the root filesystem. They are available together with my build scripts at http://fedora.danny.cz/arm/ Changes: - kernel config now sets CONFIG_LSM_MMAP_MIN_ADDR=4096 (adviced by Eric Paris) - the ramdisk is now generated with dracut instead of mkinitrd Using dracut for preparing the ramdisk has many advantages: - one ramdisk works on a whole platform, but creating host-specific ramdisks is still possible - allows to explicitly specify block device drivers and filesystems that are included, that sets the array of allowed block device and filesystem type combinations for the root filesystem - allows to enable features like RAID and crypto for root - root filesystem device is set on the kernel command line only, it's not hardcoded anywhere, but the drawback is it needs to be set in the uboot environment via console - no hand-coded hacks are needed Dan _______________________________________________ fedora-arm mailing list fedora-arm@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-arm
