Hi All, I am using mini2440 board with u boot and linux. I am able to load linux perfectly and it works fine on the board. But i m running into one new kind of problem. The problem is as follows: I want to do kernel module programming. I have developed few modules on my PC and I want to transfer them to the board which is running linux. Now I tried following methods: 1. Using the mmc card. 2. Using the USB host port with help of USB HDD. But in both the cases linux on mini2440 board is not able to read the files on MMC card or USB HDD. Does anyone have any idea?
File transfer with linux
Are the u-boot environment variables set up for MMC transfer? In minicom do a <printenv> What kernel are you using? What rootfs?
Hi, I think you got my question wrong. I followed the steps given here. http://narnia.cs.ttu.edu/drupal/node/131 After following these steps I got linux running on my mini2440 board. Now I want to transfer some files to the mini2440 from my linux box. what to do now? -R/\\/I-
That particular kernel and/or rootfs does not automatically enable either the MMC or USB. The FriendlyArm distro has hotplug which gets the SDcard and USB going for you "out of the box". You need to read up about mounting these devices. This distro at narnia also uses <mdev>. I gave up!
Why don't you simply use SFTP (the secure file transfer protocol of SSH)? With it you can upload and download files over network e.g. by using the konqueror under KDE (the address is then sftp://root@<IP address of mini2440>). Then you don't even need to install a FTP server.
