Hello,
I'm trying to build RC10 for use on an Archos 7 internet media
tablet.
The idea is to load u-boot V2 during the stage 3 boot instead of
the
original modified initramfs image from flash. I could then
select which
kernel and root file-system I use to boot the rest of the way.
On top of this, I am trying to use an OpenEmbedded overlay that
is based
on the SDE (Special Developer Edition) release provided by
Archos. I
want to use the cross compiler generated by the OE image in
preparation
for generating a recipe for doing the same when building my
release
images.
With a bit tweaking, I have been able to generate binaries for
RC10 for
my Archos 7 and my BeagleBoard. Both using the their own cross
compiler
tools generated by their separate OE projects. This is using
the
patches for the OMAP3 found on this list.
>From what I have read, I should be able to copy the executable
ELF
binary (not the .bin file) on to my respective devices and run
it to
test if it works. When I do this, I get an "Illegal
instruction" error.
Could I get someone to confirm or deny my assumption about being
able to
test the elf binary on my devices? Should I be compiling the
sandbox
version for my devices instead of the platform/board specific
versions?
If the the above is confirmed, then I will need to install a
debugger
that will let me see where the failure is happening and go from
there.
Any hints on how I can get V2 on either of these devices would
be
appreciated.
-Freeman
