If you are trying to use the 2.6.8 kernel with the default file-system that comes with the OSK, I don't believe this will work. The montavista kernel that comes with the OSK is a 2.4 kernel and not 2.6. Therefore, you should create a new flash file-system for the 2.6.8 kernel. Check out the OSK wiki page: http://elinux.org/OSK In particular see the "OSK5912 Newbie Guide" that provides details on how to create a flash file-system. http://www.capgo.com/Resources/SoftwareDev/osk-newbie-guide.pdf Also, please copy the list. You can also search the mailing list on the following page, as there has been a lot of discussion with regard to the OSK in the past. http://dir.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.omap Cheers Jon -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-omap" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
