I'm having trouble getting netconsole to work u-boot after following to the
letter instructions found in README.NetConsole. Here are the steps taken.
1) in the file include/configs/ads5125.h, I use # define CONFIG_NETCONSOLE
1
2) I then built u-boot and downloaded the image on ram memory of the target
board using CodeWarrrior USB-TAP
3) I set stdin, stdout, stderr to nc and ncip to the ip address of the linux
host
4) Once in u-boot, I can ping from the target to the linux host.
5) Afer running nc, the script that sets stdin, stdout, stderr to nc, I
switched over to the host side, where I run either
./tools/netconsole target_ipaddr
or
$ nc -lu 6666 &
$ nc -u targetIipaddr 6666
Yet, I see absolutely nothing on the console.
However, once in a great while, I do see the => from the boot prompt to
the console on the host side.
Why doesn't it seem to be working ? This seems to be pretty straightfoward.
Also, just to be sure, I inserted the netconsole module and prior to using
tools/netconsole, I ran the following command:
netconsole=6666@192.168.10.12/eth0,6666@192.168.10.10/mac_address_of_192.168.10.10<mailto:netconsole=6666@192.168.10.12/eth0,6666@192.168.10.10/mac_address_of_192.168.10.10>.
