new aarch64 test image

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 




There is a new aarch64 image for use with the foundation model. It boots using the efi work Mark Salter has implemented in the kernel.

To use this image, please set up the Foundation Model as described in:

  http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/AArch64/QuickStart

Then download and extract this image in the aarch64 directory:

  cd ~/aarch64
wget http://dmarlin.fedorapeople.org/fedora-arm/aarch64/F19-aarch64-efi.tar.xz
  tar Jxvf F19-aarch64-efi.tar.xz

Note: This image requires about 12GB free disk space to extract.

The latest image supports virtio, so the kernel image, initramfs, and device tree blob included on the image will be used to boot. You no longer need to use separate "Kernel Packages".

An example script for starting the model has been included in the tarball. This script performs the steps outlined in "Starting the Model" from the QuickStart wiki. Both console (telnet) and ssh access are supported. To start the model, 'cd' into the F19-aarch64-efi subdirectory and run the script:

  cd ~/aarch64/F19-aarch64-efi
  ./efi-aarch64.sh

Notes:

- You will require 'sudo' access in order to run this script.
- The script assumes the foundation model is in:
    ~/aarch64/Foundation_v8pkg

You will probably still need to follow the steps in "Allowing the Model to Connect to the Internet" from the QuickStart wiki, if you have not run the model before.

Please post to this list if you encounter any problems or have questions.


Thank you,

d.marlin
