Harishkumar,
I already know my SoC name, it is Celestial
CSM1203, and it is not available in any official kernel source tree ( the last
one I checked it 3.4.1 10 minutes ago).
Since it is not available in the original kernel
source, we had to make those thousands of changes one-by-one, and it would take
years, right?
Am I correct?

Sertac,
Also, if u know ur chip SoC name, u can find
whether open source linux kernel may have already support inbuilt in it. u can
google around it, before deciding to port.

Sertac,
From your present source, u can find the
Celestial SoC change.
check for arch/arm folder.
then in
corresponding drivers, like usb,serial,video etc.

Sertac, Basically u need to have Celestial SoC
& drivers related patch. Then, u can download desired kernel or
latest 3.3.x. Apply and do the forward porting. It won't be
straight forward, u need to re-write a bit. U can always refer any
other celectial SoC family in latest kernel source or other ARM9
family. see -> arch/arm/

Dear All;
I have a digital satellite receiver (named
Chipbox), which uses linux kernel 2.6.12.5.
Main chipset name is Celestial CSM1203 ( It is
ARM926EJ-S core).
I would like to add some functionality (Such as
CIFS, USB WIFI...) to my STB. In order to do that, I need to cross
compile new kernel.
However, the chipset provider ( Celestial) does
not provide a new kernel to do this. They just compiled 2.6.12.5 for
about 5-6 years ago, and they didn't do a new kernel from that
time.
So, I need your helps:
1) Celestial has done a lot of modifications on
the original 2.6.12.5 source ( drivers, headers, definitions...) All
these changes can be seen by using MELD tool.
2) In order to have a new kernel ( Such as
2.6.35.13) which can be running on my chipbox, what are the steps
should be done one by one?
Can you please explain for a newbie
please?
Best Regards
Sertac
