Don, Chris,
"Can you enable VERBOSE_INIT_ARM by adding an options VERBOSE_INIT_ARM to
your kernel config. It'll give more tracing during bootup"
To be honest I don't know how to do That
Chris: can you give me a short explanation on how to do that if building
is possible on "Fedora 8" of course.
Hi René,
uncomment the line:
options VERBOSE_INIT_ARM
from the kernel config file (NSLU2), and rebuild (you must do a clean
build, otherwise the option won't be picked up) the kernel.
In theory building on fedora core should be fine, we support cross
compilation.
I suspect that the kernel has sneaked over the 4MB size boundary, and
that's what's trigger the problem (I saw this on acorn32 a while back)
However I can't see how that's kicking in as the code looks to (but I
could be mis-reading it) setup 16MB of space for the kernel.
Having just built a fresh NSLU2 kernel, it's below the 4MB limit, so I
am puzzled now:
size
/extra/obj/current/ebevbarm/sys.clean/arch/evbarm/compile/NSLU2/netbsd
text data bss dec hex filename
2283971 479328 217924 2981223 2d7d67
I think VERBOSE_INIT_ARM is probably worth a try.
You probably should keep port-arm in the loop, as there are lurkers out
there who can help :)
Thanks,
Chris
