I'd very much like to have other gentoo folks on this journey I do believe these folks have more designs coming down the pipeline. The Linaro team is very friendly and helpful too. hth, James

Can you mount them manually after booting? Do you use an initrd? Have you tried diffing the configs for the two kernels to look for potentially relevant differences? -- Neil Bothwick Run with scissors. Remove mattress tags. Top post.

There's 2-3 devs actively working on arm64, and I'm sure you will find some help there. Just give them some time to reply, not everyone is online 24/7.

[gentoo-user] Ruby is infesting my machine
Hi all, Just done an "eix-sync" followed by an "emerge --pretend -NuD world" and for some reason, something wants to install Ruby stuff everywhere - I don't currently have any ruby stuff installed. I have in my make.conf "-ruby" and "RUBY_TARGETS=""". Looking at "equery depends ruby" shows 4 ebuilds, app-text/docbook-xsl-stylesheets-1.78.0-r1 (ruby ? dev-lang/ruby:1.9) (ruby ? dev-lang/ruby:2.0) dev-util/universalindentgui-1.2.0-r1 (ruby ? dev-lang/ruby) dev-vcs/subversion-1.8.13-r2 (ruby ? >=dev-lang/ruby-2.1:2.1) media-gfx/graphviz-2.38.0 (ruby ? dev-lang/ruby) I've gone into package.use and put a "-ruby" for these four and the problem persists. Looking at the output from "emerge --pretend -NuD world" shows the first mention of ruby is "eselect-ruby". Putting this into package.mask does nothing, it still appears in the emerge list and now also at the bottom of the emerge output under "The following mask changes are necessary to proceed" "emerge --tree --pretend dev-lang/ruby" appears to also have eselect-ruby as the cause of the trouble. Does anyone know how I can prevent this infestation from happening? Regards, Andrew

Sorry, that was done by a different group, I don't know the details. The gcc prefix is arm-v7-linux-ucliceabi- so I gather we are using uclib. I the past I used Codesourcery for ARM, it was quite easy to set up. >> The bootloader is pre-programmed through >> JTAG to embedded flash.

I think we use JTAG to download a small code into the SoC embedded RAM that programs the flash but again it's something I receive already programmed. You obviously could use the JTAG for application debugging but I find gdb/gdbserver much more convenient. I know it's also possible to access the JTAG from the GDB with openocd but I've never used it. raffaele
