i'm not sure but only the kernel from: http://ritter-vogt.dyndns.biz/lowlevel/zImage.tns works for me.

and the y just appear don't know why I thought it was "cmdline debug root=/dev/ram console=tty0 console=ttyAMA0,115200n8" this line
but it also appears "cmdline root=/dev/ram" when i use this line. (not sure if this happens with every kernel)

First, check if your kernel image is not corrupt:
'md5sum zImage.tns'
Second, are you using the most recent linuxloader2.tns?
If not, you need the most recent version to boot multiplatform kernels.

oh i'm so sorry for taking your time, it seems my linuxloader2.tns was not up to date.

maybe versions in linuxloader2 is useful? like 2.1.6 or something.

thanks for your help, this did solve my problem :)

Would be better for versions which are incompatible with older and newer kernels.
Clone git and write a patch for it  ;)

Hi,

I've been trying launch linux on my Clickpad CAS.
I got the latest version of nll, and the latest zImage build here: https://tiplanet.org/nspire-linux-builds/ (Success at 20121219_1910 for version v3.6-12887-g8db42e4, config expanded)

I'm using this script:
Code: [Select]
kernel linux/zImage.tns
cmdline root=/dev/ram
boot

However, linux always freeze here:
Code: [Select]
[<c0441f00>] (dump_stack+0x0/0x1c) from [<c044201c>] (panic+0x84/0x1dc)
[<c0441f98>] (panic+0x0/0x1dc) from [<c0546d6c>] (mount_block_root+0x278/0x2cc)
e3:c1829eb4 r2:c0516b17 r1:c1829ee8 r0:c05052fd r7:00008001
[<c0546af4>] (mount_block_root+0x0/0x2cc) from [<c0546f10>] (mount_root+0x58/0x70)
[<c0546eb8>] (mount_root+0x0/0x70) from [<c0547090>] (prepare_namespace+0x168/0x1c8)
[<c0546f28>] (prepare_namespace+0x0/0x1bc) from [<c043fad4>] (kernel_init+0x174/0x2a8)
[<c043f960>] (kernel_init+0x0/0x2a8) from [<c000dff0>] (ret_from_fork+0x14/0x24)
//Might be a few errors in the addresses, it's hard to copy :P

(I tried several zImages on TI-Planet, and it fails at the same point).

Any idea? :)
Thanks!

You need to specify an initrd to load, e.g.:
Code: [Select]
kernel linux/zImage.tns
initrd linux/initrd.tns
cmdline root=/dev/ram
boot

I thought this was optional.
Can you give me a link to a minimal initrd please?

Yeah, here's one build (not tested):
