 |

Howdy. I'm following this: http://dev.gentoo.org/~armin76/arm/sheevaplug/install.xml . Everything works swimmingly on my new GuruPlug Server Plus, until...
| Code: | Starting kernel ...
Uncompressing Linux..............................................................................
Error: unrecognized/unsupported machine ID (r1 = 0x00000a29).
Available machine support:
ID (hex) NAME
00000690 Marvell DB-88F6281-BP Development Board
00000691 Marvell RD-88F6192-NAS Development Board

00000831 Marvell SheevaPlug Reference Board
0000085b QNAP TS-119/TS-219
Please check your kernel config and/or bootloader. |
Can the kernel and image be updated to handle this new hardware from GlobalScale? Thanks!

See Documentation this case is described there, you must set some Options in uboot to boot a standard kernel.
Received mine today, but no time to start.

Moved from Installing Gentoo to Gentoo on Alternative Architectures, you should get more help here.

Did you do the "Setting needed kernel-related variables" part?
If so, paste here the 'printenv' output of u-boot. |

Sadly, we got new results, but not the goal. This is on the two-GigE port/wifi/bluetooth "GuruPlug Server Plus".

I tried following the howto here:
http://dev.gentoo.org/~armin76/arm/sheevaplug/install.xml
...that worked swimmingly on my old Sheevaplugs, but with my new Guruplug it just loads the various bits from the TFTP server, and reboots itself:

Since this kind of thing usually begets requests for the output of printenv, I'll include that too:

@searchingfortao: Did you upgrade u-boot?
Try not setting the arcNumber stuff.
Doing this blindly is a bit hard  |

I'm sorry, I went through the process and thought that I was having a new problem unrelated to the u-boot upgrade but still in the same train of thought. Turns out that I had the "image_name" set to the wrong thing (no idea why) and that got me to the same spot as everyone else on this thread.
I haven't found an adequate howto for upgrading u-boot though. I can't get into the factory-shipped O/S (ubuntu) 'cause I can't remember the environment variables to do it, so I'm left with trying to do it with USB or TFTP. The howto I found though appear to be for an even older version of u-boot since it referred to using a command called "bubt" which doesn't appear to exist in the version I'm using. Can you point me to a good tutorial somewhere? |

|
|
The solution is actually quite simple, I just used this here and afterwards booted my new GuruPlug without problems. Do the following steps after setting up the IP adresses:
| Code: | tftp 0x6400000 uboot.guruplug.bin
nand erase 0x0 0x100000
nand write.e 0x6400000 0x0 0x100000
|
* After the uboot burning is done, reset the board
* Then, you may have to set and save all the environment variables again
Afterwards, your GuruPlug should boot with Armin76's kernel.
The source for the instructions is http://plugcomputer.org/plugwiki/index.php/Reflashing_images_on_the_GuruPlug, last section... |
