Hi! I'm trying to get a working environment to build some applications on my loved spitz. I followed the instructions in OpenEmbedded | Getting Started, and started "bitbake gpe-image". After having solved three lil problems :
1. linux-openzaurus 2.6.17 doesn't compile due to syntax error 2. Freetype 2.2.1 link error (libz in wrong location) 3. gpe-mini-browser: fetch failed, server does not answer to "PASV". (I got the file elsewhere). Everything then compiled without problems. so I took the files in build/tmp/deploy/images and copied them to a CF card : gnu-tar -> gnu-tar updater.sh.spitz -> updater.sh zImage-2.6.17-spitz-20060731163151.bin -> zImage.bin gpe-image-spitz-20060801210605.rootfs.tar.gz -> hdimage1.tgz It "flashed" OK. But on boot up, I get: CODE INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" ... (last line repeated 7 or 8 times) INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" ... (last line repeated 7 or 8 times) INIT: cannot execute "/sbin/getty" INIT: Id "S" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes I'm kinda stuck there. Any help will be appreciated. JP |

I don't know much about the Spitz, but....
I'd guess at the hdimage not flashing correctly - could this be something to do with the partition sizes? If you go to the recovery console, are there any files on the HDD? Si |

I'm stuck there... any idea to figure out what is going on will be appreciated. |

A post to the OE or OZ mailing list or a question on IRC (#oe or #openzaurus) would probably get you answers more quickly.

Well, I was quite occupied this week, so I just checked this out today, and it doesn't happen in the lastest snapshot...
Thank you all for your help. |
