Message-ID: <016301d09701$da9e8e10$8fdbaa30$@novadsp.com> List-Id: MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit To: buildroot@busybox.net There might be some really dumb questions in this so apologies in advance. Aside from problems with the default uEnv.txt I can build a booting system using 2015.02. For which many thanks. I've currently got 3 problems. Any help here much appreciated. 1. How to point BR to use a newer kernel (TI 3.14.43 in this case)? Which menuconfig setting(s) need to be changed and what would the resulting .config look like? If I simply replace the commit hash when I makeconfig with the branch number I get the (painful!) result in the appended snippet below 2. If I configure the default kernel (3.12.10 ish) to build (specifically) USB gadget modules, modprobe and friends do not work on the target. The .ko modules are in the expected folder but somewhere a step is getting missed. Any thoughts? 3. If I even need to do this by hand, how do I set up /etc/network/interfaces to use etho? Does this need a custom script or can it be added to some default file somewhere? Or, can I create an interfaces file in $BUILDROOT /board/beaglebone? 4. Is there an officially sanctioned way to get a complete log of all build steps? Redirection to stdout/stderr is a bit brittle. And I'd prefer to avoid hacking remake or pymake 5. More generally, which .config files need to be backed up? I get $BUILDROOT but how about for the kernel? Thanks very much for any help here. The extraordinarily maddening error follows. The problem here is that if I rerun make the entire repo is cloned once more. Is this intentional? How can it be stopped. My broadband is slow so a 3 hour clone is a complete pain.. ----------------------------------------snip-------------------------------- ---------- >>> linux linux-3.14.41-ti-r63 Downloading Doing full clone Cloning into bare repository 'linux-linux-3.14.41-ti-r63'... remote: Counting objects: 4862708, done. remote: Compressing objects: 100% (721124/721124), done. remote: Total 4862708 (delta 4114542), reused 4854896 (delta 4107066) Receiving objects: 100% (4862708/4862708), 942.31 MiB | 294.00 KiB/s, done.
