Hello All, |
2 |
|
3 |
I'm currently trying to install Gentoo MIPS on an IP30 without |
4 |
monitor (and hence no keyboard connected). Connection to the |
5 |
Octane is made serially from a laptop running minicom. |
6 |
|
7 |
I think, the machine (R12000 @ 400 MHz, 2 GByte RAM) boots the |
8 |
ip30-r10k+-20050820.img image file correctly: |
9 |
|
10 |
>> bootp(): root=/dev/ram0 |
11 |
Setting $netaddr to 192.168.0.70 (from server ) |
12 |
Obtaining from server |
13 |
8520560+306368 entry: 0xa800000020799000 |
14 |
|
15 |
but there is no further output; probably there is no getty |
16 |
running on the serial port. |
17 |
|
18 |
Question 1: Is there an image that has serial console enabled? |
19 |
Question 2: What is the format of the .img file that is loaded |
20 |
via tftp - maybe there's a chance to add an entry for the |
21 |
serial port (what is the proper special file here?) in the |
22 |
initrd? |
23 |
|
24 |
Thanks, Karin |
