Doc/Serial problems in HHL 1.2?

Doc/Serial problems in HHL 1.2?

[M. Tim Jones]

Hello!

I've just installed the HHL 1.2 CD and I've run into a couple of
problems.

After installing the 1.2 CD, the 'make' would not work without studying
the Makefile and then adding a couple of files (.hhl_target_cpu and
.hhl_cross_compile).  After putting these in, the compile began but then
failed at math-emu (it no longer exists in the 1.2 subdirectory tree).
Are the .hhl* files created automatically somewhere?  Upon removing the
Math Emulation configuration item, the build continued.

Finally, the kernel built for the 860CLLF consistently results in a Bad
Trap in my_console_write.  It appears that the uart.c file (where
my_console_write resides) has undergone major surgery.

Any idea what's up?

Thanks,

Tim.

I'm guessing that you are trying to use the hhl-kernel* package.  This
is the generic kernel source; it's really only used to build the
target-specific packages.

You really should be using one of the LSP (Linux Support Package) RPMs.
These include the .hhl files (which configure the kernel build
architecture and cross development tools) and an appropriate default
configuration.  I don't think we have an 860CLLF LSP, but the mbx860 or
linuxplanet configs should be close.

Everything is include in the LSP; you don't even have to have the
hhl-kernel RPM installed to build a kernel for an LSP.

Umm, I think you do in 1.2:
    hhl-ppc_8xx-cllf-lsp-2.2.14-1.2.2-3.noarch.rpm
    hhl-ppc_8xx-cllf-lsp-binaries-2.2.14-1.2.2-3.noarch.rpm

This is what I'm using, but the kernel still crashes in
my_console_write.  I'm about to do a fresh install on a node that's
never hosted the HHL distro (since my current host has both 1.0 and 1.1
on it and I want to rule out any conflicts).

Tim.

Yes, there is a LSP for the 860 CLLF.  It is called:
	hhl-ppc_8xx-cllf-lsp-2.2.14-1.2.2-3.noarch.rpm

You're both right, of course.  I just did a quick search for 860, which
missed it.  Sorry for the misinformation.
