yeah, I think the big fat red warning in the guide led me to assume that |
| 11 |
I should only let crossdev populate $SYSROOT... I'm over it now. :-) |

Good to know I'm on the right track... |

So, small update. I added the serial port to the nslu, and cut the |
| 21 |
resistor (change processor speed from 133MHz to 266MHz). |
| 22 |
|
| 23 |
I just uploaded my first kernel (2.6.20-gentoo-r6) and ramdisk via tftp |
| 24 |
using this guide[1]. A few false starts with the kernel (serial port |
| 25 |
shouldn't be a module, need ramdisk, etc), and it's looking good. It |
| 26 |
halts now with two errors, one seems to be a size mismatch between the |
| 27 |
kernel's config and the physical size of the ramdisk fs. The other is |
| 28 |
asking for a pointer to init... neat. |

After doing this: |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
# xmerge --root /rootfs uclibc busybox baselayout-lite dropbear |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
# cd /rootfs |
| 35 |
|
| 36 |
# du --max-depth=1 |
| 37 |

1 ./tmp |
| 39 |
292 ./var |
| 40 |
4394 ./lib |
| 41 |
3406 ./usr |
| 42 |

| 43 |

| 44 |
825 ./bin |
| 45 |
1 ./home |
| 46 |
1 ./root |
| 47 |
1 ./mnt |
| 48 |
1 ./proc |
| 49 |
2 ./dev |
| 50 |
9015 ./ |
| 51 |
|
| 52 |
Not bad. I haven't even cleaned it out yet (I have a whole bunch of |
| 53 |
unneeded modules in /lib) |
