openEmbedded is not booting

Hi,

i just followed the installation manual on this web page for installing of openembedded on my panel card. Everything worked fine until i start to boot the system from a flash card. On the beginning everything worked until the output on the window stops and no further response is appearing on the window. I didnt flashed the kernel image because the panel card shows me that i am using a linux kernel 2.6.22 as the default kernel which was shipped with the developer board. Do i have to flash anyway the kernel?

thank in advance.

Re: openEmbedded is not booting

The OpenEmbedded packages are compiled with the ARM EABI. The old toolchain can only produce OABI kernel images and programs. Therefore you have to either use the provided OpenEmbedded kernel images or compile your kernel with the new toolchain. You can find instructions on how to do that in the "Getting started" chapter.

Re: openEmbedded is not booting

First thanks for the fast response.

But i need a little help again ,-). I am complet linux newbie. ;-(

On the web page i can download a *.bin file. The manual don´t tell me what i should do with this kind of file? Sorry i know this is more or less a complete stupid question but as i mentioned i am a complete linux newbie.

If you could help me or give me some tipps. I would be more then glad.

bye

Re: openEmbedded is not booting

In the manual, the kernel image is called uImage (LinuxGuide) or uImage-2.6.22 (upgrade guide). So everything that is done with the uImage* files in the installing sections has to be done with the *.bin file.
