one other (rather hackish) hint if you want to test a proper kernel/initramfs setup as ubuntu uses it:
(well, one way would be to base on a ubuntu kernel package, add your patchset and just build that, since this will call the proper postinstall scripts, use the needed configuration options for security features etc and put things in the right places, but for a quicker way to test your own build, see below) a) do a normal install to USB from the imx51 live image (leave the SD card in place after installation) b) copy the "vmlinuz-$version" of the kernel you want to test into /boot on the installed system c) put the branch with modules for this kernel under /lib/modules d) run: sudo update-initramfs -c -k <$version of the kernel you need the initramfs for> d) run: sudo flash-kernel (so the initramfs gets proper padding and kernel and initramfs get put into the redboot patition on SD into the right places) e) reboot this will narrow down the possible causes of failure to kernel or redboot changes and exclude any possibilities of issues caused by a nonstandard boot setup. -- notification area applets crash on login https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/392716 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
