Your kernel patches for the Marvell Mirabox

[rbernd@gmail.com (Bernd)]

Hi Thomas,

Thanks, that did the trick! Now the kernel boots OK until it can't find
the root filesystem (I know the reason for that).

It appears that there is a bug in

$ make ARCH=arm CROSS_COMPILE=../arm-2012.09/bin/arm-none-eabi- uImage

The command it uses to create the uImage is (got it from
arch/arm/boot/.uImage.cmd):

/bin/sh /home/bernd/mirabox-dev/marvell-boards/scripts/mkuboot.sh -A arm
-O linux -C none  -T kernel -a  -e  -n 'Linux-3.7.0-rc7-00250-g0c0029c'
-d arch/arm/boot/zImage arch/arm/boot/uImage

So no value given for parameters -a and -e.

Best regards,

Bernd
