Hi,
I successfully build and execute a uClinux based on kernel 2.6.21 and you will find following the how-to.
This howto will explain how to do this.
1. Download and Install the snapgear tool chain (gcc 3.4.4):
In the Embedded Artists wmware image, download the following tool
chain:
*
In terminal do the following:
$su
Password: root
$cd /
$tar zxvf
/arm-linux-tools-20061213.tar.gz
$exit
2. Download the sources
Download the uClinux snapshot:
-
Download the 2.6.20.x kernel:
-
Download the uClinux patch for 2.6.21:
-
Download the LPC2468 patch for 2.6.21-uc0:
- linux-2.6.21-uc0-lpc2468.diff in
Download the BSP for LPC2468:
- uClinux-dist-20070130-nxp-lpc2468.tgz in
3. Setup the sources
1) Untar the uClinux snapshop and remove the kernels
tar -zxvf /uClinux-dist-20070130.tar.gz
rm -r uClinux-dist/linux-2.0.x
rm -r uClinux-dist/linux-2.4.x
rm -r uClinux-dist/linux-2.6.x
2) Make a new linux-2.6.x kernel from scratch
tar -jxvf /linux2.6.21.tar.bz2
gzip -dc /linux-2.6.21-uc0-big.patch.gz | patch -p0
patch -p0 /linux-2.6.21-uc0-lpc2468.diff
mv linux-2.6.21 uClinux-dist/linux-2.6.x
3) Install the BSP for LPC2468
tar -zxvf /uClinux-bsp-lpc2468.tar.gz
4. Compile the kernel using the default setup
NOTE: For Embedded Artists LPC2468 OEM Board users:
The image is located uClinux-dist/linux2.6.x/arch/arm/boot/Image
The romfs is located uClinux-dist/images/romfs.img
image has to be loaded @a0008000
romfs has to be loaded @a1800000
Good luck, Philippe GOETZ
Last words:
THIS IS NOT FULLY TESTED (even not tested at all). It is fresh from
the oven. TESTERS ARE WELCOME.
NO DRIVER INCLUDED. They will come soon.
