While travrsing through linux kernel and uboot source code and booting process tutorials...I found some contradictory facts...What I have read is... uboot is responsible for creating an environment where linux can run and it also does some task to up the peripherals...I found the same thing in kernel code...Why is it so? (Say if uboot is already initializing gig port and devices then why does kenel do it again?)

I compiled(using cross toolchain for arm) the kernel on host machine and builded it to a clean build directory. I founded the builded uImage in arch/arm/boot. but how and where (i mean in which directory) should i get the MLO and Uboot.bin files. I should transfer MLO and Uboot.bin and uImage to sdcard to boot my board.
View 7 Replies View RelatedIt sounds like he's making a difference between the kernel "source code" and the kernel itself(as in the downloaded file/ files) but the way he talks about both is the same.So then, if one had already "installed" the "kernel sources code," why would he need the "tarball with the newest Linux kernel?" He's already "installed" a kernel, right?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was trying to install VPN client for my Ubuntu 9.10 64-bit. During the installation process the terminal reads:
"Directory containing linux kernel source code [/lib/modules/2.6.31-21-generic/build]"
On that I pressed enter for the default option (in bold). After a few more steps I reached the following error:
Making module
sh: Can't open ./driver_build.sh
Failed to make module "cisco_ipsec.ko".
[/lib/modules/2.6.31-21-generic/build] is the location where the installer expects the kernel source to be (I am guessing). So unless I correct the terminal (by providing the location of the kernel source), I think I will keep on getting the same error message.
So to get the kernel source I visited: [URL]From there I copy pasted the command:
sudo apt-get build-dep --no-install-recommends linux-image-$(uname -r)
apt-get source linux-image-$(uname -r)
Everything went fine, but even now I don't know if at all I have a kernel source and where it exists on my machine.
I want to modify the source code of the kernel so that the new compiled kernel should disable USB ports.

View 5 Replies View RelatedHow do I force recompilation of the kernel .deb packages. After a small change I make to the sources without having to clean the sources and recompile the whole kernel again?
Code: Select all$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen setup_i386_none_686
$ fakeroot make -f debian/rules.gen binary-arch_i386_none_686 binary-indep
Calling the second command again does not recompile the modified code, just recreates the .deb packages.
If I use:
Code: Select all$ make -f debian/rules clean before the build command, then it will recompile everything which takes ages.
How can I force recompilation of the files/objects I changed (and dependencies)?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was careless and deleted the Kernel using synaptic package manager. I was trying to delete the older entries but did not realize that I also selected the current one. Thus, I do not get an option to boot to Karmic at GRUB. It only shows the memtest entry and Windows XP. So I booted using the Ubuntu 9.10 LiveCD and tried the following:
1. sudo su
2. mkdir /mnt/os
3. mount /dev/sdb /mnt/os
At this point, I keep getting the following error: PHP Code: mount: /dev/sdb already mounted or /mnt/os busy I tried rebooting, making a different directory to mount my sdb to but it keeps repeating the same message again and again.
