[microblaze-uclinux] OK, got kernal to Compile... Output is non-existant or corrupt

[Greg Miller <apco25@xxxxxxxxx>]

OK,

 

I got the kernal to compile (See below how to do it):

OS : Fedora 3 running on VMware

 

PROBLEM NOW : now as before (I get a corrupted output or no outout on the serial port).

- I have checked several boards (all the same).

- I have checked the baud rate. I have wrote programs to input / output on this port and it works fine.

- I have tried the 'boot loader' program as well as the generated .elf files.

- I either get a corrupted output or no output.

- Is there something in the linker I am setting up wrong (when generating the bootloader program)?

- Am I missing something?

 

I do :

dow -data image.bin 0x80000000

dow executable.elf (this is the bootloader)

run

(output none or corrupted).

 

-OR-

dow image.elf (same result)

 

To build the Kernel with the downloads as of 1-3-05:

1). Downloaded kernel : http://www.uclinux.org/pub/uClinux/dist/

2). Downloaded latest toolchain (from this website)

3). Setup according to this website

4). libxil.a  (From EDK install) file into uClinux-dist library

(Fixes this : bin/mb-ld.real: cannot find -lxil)

5). Did this according to yashi (Thanks to yashi!) - I just did manually

(Fixes lcrypty_old issues)
