hmm maybe some diff against some *standard* installation will suite better?
And sending irrelevant logs will not help.
Thought I dunno how to determine relevant logs ;-)

versions, config files, some hardware diagnostics, etc
Tar all the results and attach them to support tickets.

Howto provide decent backgroud infos about problems?

2008-09-02 Thread Thorben Krueger
Could someone perhaps whip up a shellscript to be run on any OM
installation to determine the answers to most (technical) FAQs?

This would help people a lot with communicating issues.

(For instance, I have totally forgotten which uImage is currently
residing in my FR, or even which uboot version.)

In the long term, it would be nice to have such an "info-tool"
preinstalled in every image.

Just my suggestions.
