Hey, I was wondering if anyone can help me out with this. I have been trying to flash my verdex xm4-bt for the first time, but after I complete the instructions for replacing the file system image on the gumstix.net website, the boot gets stuck at "Freeing init memory." The bootargs seemed ok according to what people have posted on the mailing list, but I then added user_debug=0x1f to the bootargs to see if I could figure out what was wrong, and it seems to have gotten stuck in an infinite loop. The following lines were printed repeatedly: Code: e08fa00a e1a00001 e3a070f8 ef000000 (e1a03000) [1] init: obsolete system call 00000000. Code: e2632000 859fc01c 878a200c ef000000 (e3700a01) [1] init: obsolete system call 00000000 It is unresponsive to Ctrl-C and I'm not sure what this signifies. I'd appreciate any help you can give me. Many thanks, Gabe |

I bet you're running Ubuntu and have /bin/sh linked to dash. See the note on this page http://www.gumstix.net/Software/view/Getting-started/Setting-up-a-build-environment/111.html about that and make sure thats not the case. That is the only thing that I've seen that would cause booting to freeze at that spot.

double check to see that ls -l /bin/sh does NOT point to 'dash'. On Ubuntu installing new packages, upgrading existing ones, sneezing will often end up reinstalling 'dash' without warning.

Did you rebuild the kernel after you changed the shell symlink? bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-kernel You might also want to rebuild task-base and your image just to cover all the bases bitbake -c rebuild task-base-gumstix bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-whatever-image Chris On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 9:52 AM, Marco Montanaro <mar...@gm...> wrote: > what do u mean by several minutes? > > Thanks > Marco Montanaro > > 2008/12/18 Mark Barton <ma...@at...>: >> The freeing init memory process can take several minutes after flashing.

thanks a lot it worked! For someone who get stuck in this problem: after updating your ubuntu system maybe your \bin\sh has changed from bash to dash, in order to make it work again i followed this steps: 1) ls -l /bin/sh ---to verify if the link is "dash" 2) sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash ---answer no ,as written in the "getting started" guide 3) Rebuild all your system : bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-kernel bitbake -c rebuild task-base-gumstix bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-"whatever"-image --where whaetever for me was basic so bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-basic-image 4) and then last step reflash all your system : http://www.gumstix.net/Software/view/Getting-started/Replacing-the-file-system-image/111.html Thanks again for help Marco Montanaro Chris Dollar wrote: > > Did you rebuild the kernel after you changed the shell symlink? > bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-kernel > You might also want to rebuild task-base and your image just to cover > all the bases > bitbake -c rebuild task-base-gumstix > bitbake -c rebuild gumstix-whatever-image > > Chris > > On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 9:52 AM, Marco Montanaro > <mar...@gm...> wrote: >> what do u mean by several minutes? >> >> Thanks >> Marco Montanaro >> >> 2008/12/18 Mark Barton <ma...@at...>: >>> The freeing init memory process can take several minutes after flashing. >>> I >>> not sure what it is doing but give it some time and see if it will >>> continue >>> the boot. >>> >>> Mark >>> >>> >>> marcomontanaro wrote: >>> >>> I'm just in the same situation as above, >>> i'm stuck at Freeing init memory:144K >>> >>> i set my sh to point "bash" instead of "dash" i just reflashed all again >>> my >>> gumstix verdex but nothin seems to work out. >>> >>> Help would be really appreciated >>> >>> Thanks, >>> Marco Montanaro >>> >>> ptkdb wrote: >>> >>> >>> double check to see that >>> >>> ls -l /bin/sh >>> >>> does NOT point to 'dash'. >>> >>> On Ubuntu installing new packages, upgrading existing ones, sneezing >>> will >>> often end up reinstalling 'dash' without warning. >>> >>> >>> >>> Vitor Ayres wrote: >>> >>> >>> Hi, >>> >>> I am having the same problem.
