kl-yang / mbl-linux-4.0 Goto Github PK

Hello,
I installed the 4.1.5 and Debian Jessie per the instructions. I verified that block size is 4K. RAID 1 is also still active, like the original mbl.
All boots fine with no errors, but when transferring a large file (1GB) over gigabit ethernet, the system hangs. The only place where I deviated from the instructions is that /dev/sda1 is ext3 while I think you recommended ext2. While issues occured with network tests, it could be related to the SATA driver.
Maybe I should just do a disk write test to verify where the issue is.
My drive is a Seagate 4TB hybrid drive.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Ewald

Hi,

while being very happy and satified with the kernel as such, my box always keeps crashing after a few days :(

I tried to debug, but didn't have any luck so far - and I can't get netconsole to work:

modprobe netconsole netconsole="[email protected]/eth0,[email protected]/"
modprobe: ERROR: could not insert 'netconsole': Unknown symbol in module, or unknown parameter (see dmesg)
[ 1523.641556] netpoll: netconsole: local port 514

[ 1523.666354] netpoll: netconsole: eth0 doesn't support polling, aborting
[ 1523.671648] netconsole: cleaning up

any advice?

thanks again! :)

Hello, I want too a clean minimal debian on my live duo.
Can I use your image?
Just clone it to 1 hd, start the server, and add the second hdd later?

I am learning things like DD recently...

... althought that's extremely useful ;)

I'll go and compile my own kernel once more.

Any chance of supporting Kernel 4.9?

抱歉，打搅了。第一次接触这个平台，不太会用。这里的对话会被发现吧？或者我想问你常用的联系方式来交流。😁

Hey @KL-Yang, thanks for your efforts on porting the patches to 4.0. Can you give some hints how to cross-compile the kernel for the mbl, i.e. if a softfloat toolchain is required or not? Or are you compiling on device?
