Hi, |
| 2 |
|
| 3 |
I am half the happiest person this evening... ;) |
| 4 |
|
| 5 |
With a mix of Robert Nelsons super kernel sources for |
| 6 |
ARM boards, the Atmel bootloader modified by acmesystems |
| 7 |
(who produces the Arietta) and the stage3 for armv5 by |
| 8 |
Gentoo and last but no least some luck the Arietta.G25 |
| 9 |
board is now booting the kernel and (seems) to access the |
| 10 |
Gentoo rootfs: The stored dmesg output tells about starting |
| 11 |
udev, so I think the rootfs is entered. |
| 12 |
|
| 13 |
Previously I had access to the board while using the |
| 14 |
embedian image by acmesystems. |
| 15 |
But Shortly after the board was released embedian.org |
| 16 |
shuts down...the project died. |
| 17 |
And I alway want gentoo on my systems... |
| 18 |
|
| 19 |
Now the other not-so-happy part: |
| 20 |
I still cannot access the board. Problem is: |
| 21 |
It does not have a real (RJ45) ethernet port. |
| 22 |
It uses ethernet over usb which works with the |
| 23 |
debian image. |
| 24 |
|
| 25 |
I configured Robert Nelsons kernel with the kernel |
| 26 |
configuration file by acmesystems - so this part should be ok. |
| 27 |
|
| 28 |
How can I configure Gentoo on the Arietta board |
| 29 |
to use ethernet-over-usb to be started while |
| 30 |
booting the Arietta board? |
| 31 |
|
| 32 |
By "replace everything eth0 with usb0" ??? ;) |
| 33 |
|
| 34 |
Thank you very much for any help in advance! |
| 35 |
Best regards, |
| 36 |
