Hello! I've flashed u-boot, kernel and Angstrom jffs2 image to board. I've set boot parameters to: bootcmd=nboot.e kernel ; bootm bootargs=root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=jffs2 console=ttySAC0,115200 And if I try to boot I get error: s3c2410-rtc s3c2410-rtc: hctosys: invalid date/time VFS: Cannot open root device "mtdblock3" or unknown-block(31,3) Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions: 1f00 256 mtdblock0 (driver?) 1f01 128 mtdblock1 (driver?) 1f02 5120 mtdblock2 (driver?) 1f03 256640 mtdblock3 (driver?) 1f04 262144 mtdblock4 (driver?) b300 1927168 mmcblk0 driver: mmcblk b301 1927100 mmcblk0p1 Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(31,3) Backtrace: [<c0036270>] (dump_backtrace+0x0/0x10c) from [<c03a24b0>] (dump_stack+0x18/0x1c) r7:c04cc480 r6:c04fdcb0 r5:c3814000 r4:c3823f40 Any ideas what can be wrong? thanks in advance best regards Tomasz
Angstrom booting error
Don't think so. Which kernel are you using? It is a common error, maybe check out http://billforums.station51.net/
Hello! I'm using the same kernel as in previous linux, but now I've compiled it in uImage format. Should I change something in my kernel? Any sugestions? thanks in advance best regards Tom
Which kernel is <as in previous Linux>? We need to know what your kernel source is. You have converted it to an uImage by: # sudo ./uboot/mini2440/tools/mkimage –A arm –O linux -T kernel -C none –a 0x30008000 –e 0x30008000 -d kernel-bin/arch/arm/boot/zImage output/uImage Dave
Previous kernel is 2.6.32.2. I thing I'm missing something there. @davef - have You got maybe config file for that kernel? Everything works fine on kernel gived with angstrom file system. But I need to use mine. I've added JFFS2 file system support and now there is no errors but it is stopping near "Freeing init memory:168K eth0: link is down". I thing I'm missing something. thanks in advance best regards Tom
2.6.32.2 from this site? config file is at home. You will find it in the 2.6.32.2 source found on the downloads page on this site.
I've found it but there is still problem with booting jffs2 images. I've turned on jffs2 file system support but I think I should turn on something more. Any suggestions? thanks in advance best regards Tom
2.6.32.2 from this site? Have you tried to mount your JFFS2 file system on the host to see if it looks like a proper file system? Maybe, the Linux tutorial on the wiki might shed light.
I've compiled it again with some extra options and now it works. But I don't have eth0 device! Why? Any suggestions? thanks in advance best regards Tom
