Kernel 4.0.4 on Lime2

[monti]

Hello Igor,

 

Jessie and Wheezy wont start with kernel 4.0.4. The image from your page (wheezy) will not start completely and now a tried a self compiled (jessie) .

On the console I saw  "Please wait, rebooting" or something like this and later

 

"restarting sshd, please wait" (or so)

 

After that, nothing more happend.

 

System is a lime2 (different) and I deleted lib/ and output/ before compiling.

 

Best,

Jan

 

(Yes, I want to try the lime2-problems with a newer kernel

Actually it hangs only sometimes - I think the problem is in Eth initialization. Cut the power and try again. (reset won't help).

 

Stick to Wheezy and Trusty.

[monti]

Sorry, same for Trusty 4.0.4 (no connection). Unfortunatelly I couldn't check the screen output.

 

Downloaded Trusty 4.0.4, copied to sd card, reboot & wait 5 minutes, disappeared from net, also after several restarts and unplugging the akku.

[Igor]

Yes, there are problems with latest build. I am working on it.

[Igor]

Current U-boot 2015.4 is broken. Ethernet fails to init also on Lime. I only changed u-boot for the latest archived and it worked.

 

This is temporally solution so working on permanent.

How can I install it?

2. Second attempt from Website: ---------------------------------

- Downloaded image and wrote to sd cart

- Downloaded http://mirror.igorpecovnik.com/u-boot/linux-u-boot-4.0.4-lime2_1.8_armhf.deb

- chroot to /mnt

- dpkg -i linux-u-boot-4.0.4-lime2_1.8_armhf.deb

- reboot

- nothing

 

3. Searched for archive uboot ------------------------

Didnt find any Uboot*-Lime2-*4.0* - files...

Ok, got it, kernel 3.19 works. (Didn't recognice that 3.19 was the precessor of 4.0.4)
