Just joking. :-) > What does "official support" mean? You should put a dockstar on a wishlist so that we can buy it to you and then you could test and mantain armedslack on it! :-) > All that I can see is that the INSTALL_KIRKWOOD doc needs a couple of > extra points to make the installation work: > - fsck config > - starting NTP on boot This is what I mean, provide full instructions to install on a dockstar. > Can you actually upgradepkg the kernel packages and reboot into the new > kernel without modifying any u-boot config? I don't know but I think yes, in debian for sure I've already apt-get upgraded the kernel. However this is a test for Richard and Cristophe. > If you give me all the u-boot stuff, I can put the u-boot binaies on the > ftp site and link to them from the "device maintenance" page on the web > site. > I'm not sure where I'd put the modifying of the u-boot environment/rescue > thing. The rescue thing is not necessary and I would avoid it. It's just a matter of the uboot. *Maybe* we could have a page on armedslack web site like this one: http://jeff.doozan.com/debian/uboot/ and hosting an adjusted script like this http://jeff.doozan.com/debian/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh which pulls out things from the armedslack website instead of doozan.com We should inform doozan though. :-) the fw_printenv stuff I don't think is really needed, if we could patch the uboot to have the special bootline needed for the dockstar... I agree, it's a lot of work anyway but dockstars are nice! :-) Ciao, Claudio _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list ARMedslack@lists.armedslack.org http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
