to build u-boot. (Its the grey cells evaporating at a prodigious rate I'm afraid.) I compiled as per the instructions and had no problems with the result. I don't want to reboot and check the u-boot version in use as it is a bit inconvenient. The compiled object is 224964 octets and dated Apr 19 19:57 as u-boot.kwb. There will be a later version 'u-boot-2011.06' which should compile correctly as there is a good 'guruplug.h' file in 'u-boot-2011.06/include/configs'. The u-boot has the ide available and you can alter the commands you need by adjusting the commands in 'guruplug.h' (see included files for command list - can't quite remember the cmd_all_???.h file!). I compiled the guruplugs u-boot on an eSata sheevaplug but as it is also a kirkwood platform, the object is fine. The object was tftp'ed across in the normal way but I was suprised (and pleased) that it worked straight out of the box! no nasty JTAG/OpenOCD to cope with. I wish creating the sheevaplug u-boot was as simple but after tweaking 'sheevaplug.h' I have got a working u-boot-2011.06 on one of my sheevaplugs though I had to use JTAG/Openocd to get me out of a pickle there! I will be converting my other sheevaplugs in due course.
bootcmd_nand=nand start; nand read.e 0x00800000 0x100000 0x400000; nand read.e 0x01100000 0x500000 0x600000
bootcmd=setenv bootargs $(bootargs_debian); run bootcmd_nand; bootm 0x00800000 0x01100000
I didn't really bother with NAND or mmc. the kernel i am using is:-
I note that in the latest u-boot, arcNumber has bee replaced by machid followed by the hexadecimal string for the machine.
I have not compiled any version 3 kernels yet, my latest (on sheeva) is 2.6.39.3. Since all the kernel sources and patches are available courtesy of 'cbxbiker' and kernel.org, I should think there would be no problems using make menuconfig to change the esata setting from module load to built-in. I will be building a version 3 kernel soon but I am working on something else.
BTW, on another subject entirely, I never got Zoneminder to work with my Edimax and Y-CAM IP cameras. ZM works on a sheeva fine but there isn't a good enough example to describe how to configure for thes cams. Another day I will have a go at it but in the meantime, the cams are FTP'ing alarm snapshots to a NAS box so not mission critical.
My Guruplugs (with the external fan mods) are proving to be extremely reliable. I wish i could say the same for my sheevaplugs as I have replaced all but one of the PSU's and the one that hasn't (and it has been working for well over a year) is out of service pending my ordering a new PSU.
