Ollie,
That is great! I'm very excited about doing this and
am willing to write some documentation. I know docbook
and can put it together rather quickly.
Can you supply me with the information I need? Here is
what I have so far (It doesn't work though):
:
0) Download the LEM (Linux Embedded) Filesystem
0a) Configure it per their directions
0b) Mount it over loopback and ran mkcramfs on it
1) Download the 2.4.2 Kernel
2) Download the latest linuxbios from CVS
3) Compile a monolithic kernel with:
#
# User modules and translation layers for MTD devices
#
CONFIG_MTD_CHAR=y
CONFIG_MTD_BLOCK=y
CONFIG_FTL=y
CONFIG_NFTL=y
CONFIG_NFTL_RW=y
#
# Memory Technology Devices (MTD)
#
CONFIG_MTD=y
CONFIG_MTD_DEBUG=y
CONFIG_MTD_DEBUG_VERBOSE=3
#
# Disk-On-Chip Device Drivers
#
# CONFIG_MTD_DOC1000 is not set
# CONFIG_MTD_DOC2000 is not set
CONFIG_MTD_DOC2001=y
CONFIG_MTD_DOCPROBE=y
CONFIG_MTD_DOCPROBE_ADDRESS=0000
CONFIG_MTD_DOCPROBE_HIGH=y
# CONFIG_MTD_DOCPROBE_55AA is not set
4) Set CPUFLAGS += -DCMD_LINE='"root=/dev/nftla1"'
5) Burn the kernel on the DoC
6) Execute nftl_format /dev/mtd0 1048756
7) fdisk /dev/nftla
8) dd conv=notrunc if=../img.cramfs of=/dev/nftla1
9) Reboot
