Thank you Nick. I will try that, but this is not the point. I am trying to figure out why *bitbake core-image-sato * does not create /dev/ram nodes, although linux-yocto has them defiined in .config file.
I also created: mylayer/recipes-kernel/linux/linux_yocto_3.4.bbapend mylayer/recipes-kernel/linux/linux_yocto_3.10.bbapend mylayer/recipes-kernel/linux/linux_yocto_3.14.bbapend with the following content: FILESEXTRAPATHS_prepend := "${THISDIR}/files:" SRC_URI += "file://ramdisk.cfg" and mylayer/recipes-kernel/linux/files/ramdisk.cfg with content: CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=16 CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=4096 and afterwards run the commands: bitbake linux-yocto -c cleansstate bitbake linux-yocto bitbake core-image-sato again. Same result, no /dev/ram nodes under rootfs. What am i doing wrong? thank you simon:-) On Thu, Jan 8, 2015 at 2:03 AM, nick <xerofo...@gmail.com> wrote: > Simon, > Can you boot this on standard computer with qemu. > Try that first and report back if that works. > Nick > > On 2015-01-07 04:59 PM, Simon Bolek wrote: > > Hello folks! > > > > I have the following problem/question. > > 1) I built a standard .hddimg core-image-sato genericx86 on ubuntu 14.10 > > 2) Afterwards, this .hddimg was deployed to USB device (USB-ZIP method) > > 3) Tried to boot Atom PC from the USB Device -> *ERROR: cound not found > > ramdisk* > > > > so initrd is trying to find /dev/ram0 which does not exist in the image. > I > > checked rootfs and there is nothing under > > > ../poky/build/tmp/work/genericx86-poky-linux/core-image-sato/1.0-r0/rootfs/dev > > > > I googled this up and there is a thread telling to check the .config file > > for *CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM *settings*.* > > I have the following entries in: > > > ../poky/build/tmp/work/genericx86-poky-linux/linux-yocto/3.10.35+gitAUTOINC+7df9ef8ee4_2ee37bfe73-r0/linux-genericx86-standard-build/.config > > ... > > CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y > > CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_COUNT=16 > > CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=4096 > > ... > > > > I also *bitbake core-image-sato -c cleansstate* twice already. > > I also* bitbake core-image-sato -c menuconfig *once more and > > afterwards *bitbake > > linux-yocto* again. > > I also tried IRC channels, but no answer so far... > > > > Can anyone help me?
