<div dir="ltr"><div>Jon,</div><div><br></div>The cubox-i2 arrived yesterday. On the solidrun wiki there are instructions for loading uboot and a kernel image at <a href="http://imx.solid-run.com/wiki/index.php?title=Building_the_kernel_and_u-boot_for_the_CuBox-i_and_the_HummingBoard">http://imx.solid-run.com/wiki/index.php?title=Building_the_kernel_and_u-boot_for_the_CuBox-i_and_the_HummingBoard</a>.<div>
<br></div><div>Do you have a better kernel image that Tim and I should be playing with?</div><div><br></div><div>I suspect that the kernel provided will have all the modules required by the hardware, and that the boot args can be modified to go directly into the rootfs, and start up init. Is that correct?</div>
<div><br></div><div>Do you have a suggestion for a rootfs to load on a second partition?</div><div><br></div><div>George</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Sun, Dec 22, 2013 at 11:07 PM, George Hunt <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:georgejhunt@gmail.com" target="_blank">georgejhunt@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br>

<div dir="ltr">I've used <span>xzimages</span>, and <span>zimages</span>, on <span>trimslice</span>, and it was easy enough. Is <span>uboot</span> already on the board?

<br></div><div>But an image, and a short recipe would be good for me. I guess I was assuming that after getting the kernel, and a few basics, like yum, we could point to FC18 repos, and get to the base fedora 18 system, which we then augment with ansible to make it into a School Server.</div>
