Re: XUPV2P update to kernel 2.6 fails

You have better to use EDK 9.1.=20
I tried to use EDK 10.1 for the xupv2p and I used the board defintion file
from=20
  https://wiki.ittc.ku.edu/ittc/Eecs388#Tool_Repository .=20
Linux 2.6 booted correctly, but I failed to get the Ethernet working.

So I used EDK 9.1 to generate the device tree. Now I have linux 2.6 on my
xupv2p, with root file system=20
on a remote host (nfs boot).
I still have a problem, I didn't succeed to access the flash disk (pbs with
sysace driver).

If you want more precise informations, I can help you.

Good luck :)

Hi,
=20
Thanks a lot for the answers!

Now I don't feel so alone anymore...

I finally got it to work. The problem was simple: I'm using an
uart pcore from openpcores. And this hardware requires some
changes to the ns16550 kernel driver... With those changes,
everything goes well! I'm happy about that.. ;-)

But... since everything seems to work now with EDK 9.1 I try to
use my XUP-board with the EDK 10.1

In EDK 10.1 there is no board definition file for my XUPV2P.
Right now I use the board file from:

  https://wiki.ittc.ku.edu/ittc/Eecs388#Tool_Repository
=20
Now I got even stranger bahaviour than before. When ever I try
to boot into a linux kernel, some arbitrary boot parameters seem
to appear. Like:
=20
=09Loading from 0x00004000
=09[...]
=20
And after those messages the system hangs. (the real messages
vary from time to time)
=20
I have to say that for the MemoryTestApp there seems to be no
problem.  It runs like a charm..
=20
So now I'm wondering if anyone has a board definition file
usable for the linux kernel on the XUPV2P??
=20
Thanks a lot for any hint!
=20
Kind regards,
Jan

Hi
=20
I was setting up linux for teh XUP a few month ago. Both, older Kernels
(with ppc and xparameters_ml300.h file) and new ones (with powerpc and
device-tree) from the Xilinx git server worked fine for me, so yes, it
should work.
For more help you should say, what exactly you are doing, but maybe you
have already found your error.
Cheers,
Joachim
