I had a similar problem not long time ago, I think this is a good time to repost it :-) I am trying to recompile the linux kernel for the IXP12EB board, however after tftp-ing the new kernel using cygmon, it just hangs. In the menuconfig I choose EVAL_BOARD as well as not in host mode and in general I played a bit with the parameters but without any luck. Does anyone have any ideas ? I used the cygwin based armtool provided with the SDK 2.01a. (linux kernel sources under /linux in cygwin) Compiled it for bigendian strongarm. yannis
Thanks a lot for the reply.
I'm using an ENP-2505 with 4 100Mb interfaces, yes. -And what you are saying makes sense. However, the .config after making menuconfig appears to be all good. It reads:
# CONFIG_IXP_EVAL_BOARD is not set # CONFIG_SPECTACLE_ISLAND is not set CONFIG_RADISYS_ENP2505=y
I would never think that this was faulty!
I was amazed though, because altering the config to comply to your description, made everything work splendidly! This does not point in Radisys's favour. Their config is BROKEN! The manual says to choose the appropriate enp type, and the BRIDALVEIL is not even an option.
Wierd though, I searched the list and could not find anything on this. Everyone that use the ENP-2505 and follow the manual from Radisys, should also have experienced this problem.
Anyways, thanks Abhijeet, I'm in debt to you.
In time I'm sure that I will be liable to several others on this list aswell. :)
