Hi I'm new on this list. I'm trying to run openwrt on my guruplug (Marvel kirkwood platform). You can find more information about this device here: http://www.globalscaletechnologies.com/c-4-guruplugs.aspx)
While GuruPlug is mentioned in the Backfire release announcement, the support for it is missing in the released kernel. There are a bunch of patches around for kernel 2.6.33, so I started to integrate this into the build system. Someday, maybe, this will have the quality to be integrated into the dev tree, so I'm trying to make things right from the beginning. As I'm new to openwrt, I have some, maybe stupid questions: I've checked out svn://svn.openwrt.org/openwrt/trunk and made the following modifications in target/linux/kirkwood to build a 2.6.33 kernel. D target/linux/kirkwood/patches (rename to patches-2.6.30) D target/linux/kirkwood/config-default (rename to config-2.6.30) A + target/linux/kirkwood/config-2.6.30 A + target/linux/kirkwood/patches-2.6.30 A target/linux/kirkwood/config-2.6.33 M target/linux/kirkwood/Makefile A target/linux/kirkwood/patches-2.6.33 A target/linux/kirkwood/patches-2.6.33/0001-Kirkwood-Marvell-... A target/linux/kirkwood/patches-2.6.33/0002-Driver-for-Marvell-.... A target/linux/kirkwood/patches-2.6.33/0003-Initial-defconfig.patch Is this the correct way to integrate a new kernel release? The file config-2.6.33 is quite huge (39k), compared to most other kernel config files and the config-2.6.30 (4k). So I think I have a lot of unneeded/unwanted options enabled. Is there a list of modules/options that should be, or not, in the default config? There are few device specific kernel modules (eg. wireless, bluetooth) what's the correct way to deal with them? I assume they should be built as separate packages, as not all kirkwood based devices need them. If so, what's the suggested naming convention? Thanks for your help Roland _______________________________________________ openwrt-devel mailing list openwrt-devel@lists.openwrt.org https://lists.openwrt.org/mailman/listinfo/openwrt-devel
