I build the latest buildroot (revision 1541 I think) On reflashing this image to verdex board, ethernet does not work, eth0 does not show up when I do ifconfig I found this on this mailing list, <<<<<<<<<<< You need customize and recompile the linux kernel: to go to /gumstix-buildroot/build_arm_nofpu/linux-2.6.21gum make ARCH=arm menuconfig Device Drivers->Network Device Support -> Ethernet (10 or 100Mbit) ->checkmark SMSC Lan911[5678] support (M) Then, remove ./arch/arm/boot/compressed/vmlinux And remake. Copy the /gumstix-buildroot/build_arm_nofpu/root/lib/modules/2.6.21gum/kernel/drivers /net/ gumstix-smc911x.ko and smc911x.ko to the corresponding directory (/lib/modules/2.6.21gum/kernel/drivers/net/) on gumstix Do depmod -a And modprobe gumstix-smc911x.ko That should give you the Ethernet. Or, you can reflash as well. >>>>>>>>>>>>>> Do I need to do this, in my buildroot? Isnt this configured by default in the latest buildroot , when I do a "make"? Please help tx Mayur |
