Good work Sash! UBoot should rock. I'm going to give that a try on my C3000. Do you have an idea what would be necessary to make it work on other models (tosa for one)?
[div align=\"right\"][a href=\"index.php?act=findpost&pid=126402\"][{POST_SNAPBACK}][/a][/div]

Currently i added Cxx00 and C7x0/860. Probably for tosa need add tosa NAND flash driver. That easy with one from kernel sources. I'll look later.

Hello

Very interesting work on uboot.

Are the sources for your uboot with the addons availalbe somewhere?
Is your release (md5 : 6814ebadc2f71df24840a81334b07576) including C7x0 support?

here current patch. C7x0 added but not tested fully. Add in include/config/corgi.h next lines for support Sharp NAND logical partition:

Code: [Select]
#define NAND_LOGICAL  1
#define NAND_LOGICAL_SIZE    0x700000

For debug you need serial cable.

Hi, I've been testing this out for a while now.
I can't load firmware into my wifi card because prism2_srec wasn't included in this rom.
I'm not sure if that was intended or where I should get it.
I've copied a version from OZ, but it wont run because the libc in beta4 is too old... i'll keep playing.

Also, USB gadget devices seem to not work in this beta.

I'll keep playing with this. Suspend works so well, I really don't want to leave 2.6!

USB network device on default with IP 192.168.129.201. It works fine for me.

My desktop linux just doesn't see the Z when I modprobe g_ether. EDIT: g_file_storage doesn't seem to work for me either.
lsusb on the desktop doesn't show the Z at all.
If I use beta2, then it works fine. EDIT: using the udc thing.

Can anybody offer some advice for using prism2 cards on this beta?

I'm using a C3100 with beta4, and Linux Ubuntu 5.10. (2.6.12).
Thank you sashz for your ongoing efforts.

Does that mean it's instant off, rather than go-and-make-a-cup-of-tea off?

Also, a question I asked earlier: is there any video acceleration hardware in the 7x0/8x0 models?

I'm afraid I find the suspend as bad a it was before on my C1000, you press the button to suspend and then the press the button to resume which results in the split second flash of the screen followed by suspension again.

Really... on my C1000... it will look like it is going to suspend... but it has a blinking cursor for about 3-5sec... then the desktop appears...

I think I might be going back to the beta3 for the next few weeks... I would love to use this rom and help the dev process... but I bought the Z to use it... I will prolly jump back on the boat when I get back from TDY...

I find it to be perfect. I push the power button ...even at the console... and it turns off instantly. Then if I push it again, it turns on within a second or too. Lovely.

It sounds like something has not worked correctly, I've reflashed about 4 times already, it's worked each time.

Try downloading the files again (they may be corrupt), and try reflashing from the start again.
If this fails, i'm really not sure what is broken. Maybe the SD card or the Z's NAND? Which Z model?

Thanks a lot. I will try to use it and see if there is any problem on a c7x0

May I ask you how to use git to download a copy of the source  you used? I can see the right version  on [a href=\"http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=summary]http://www.denx.de/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=u-boot.git;a=summary[/url] but I don't know git yet. The tutorial on http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git...s/tutorial.html is not very helpful.

UPDATE: found cogito, currently compiling it to try to retrieve the sources...
UPDATE2 : failed! so I'd still be interested in the cmd line to fetch that version
