Thanks for the info William. Great work, as usual. =) Regarding the loading an initrd, that is high on my priority list to solve. It might be a problem with the kernel, or u-boot... too early to say for sure. Might be unrelated, but I think this is similar to what we are seeing with omap4. The 3.11 kernel is happy with 'bootm kernel - fdt', but sad with 'bootm kernel initrd fdt'. Could be a coincidence. -Jon Disnard irc: masta fas: parasense On Tue, Sep 3, 2013 at 8:38 AM, William Cohen <wcohen@xxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > On 09/03/2013 09:18 AM, Darryl L.

I started from the "make exynos_defconfig" and working towards something that is closer to the fc20 configuration. There are a couple drawbacks with this configuration. The usb3 and wireless are not working in the configuration. Also cool things like KVM virtualization are not working. >> >> How about sound? >> > > Hi Daryl > > This kernel is not for general use. This information is more to help developers avoid the issues that I encountered when building a mainstream kernel to try performance tools on.

I am hoping that in the near future there will be a nv-uboot that is closer to what fedora expects (allows ext4 and initramfs). > > -Will -- -Jon _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
