Re: [Astlinux-devel] Building for new PC Engines APU1C

[Lonnie A. <li...@lo...>]

Hi David,

Yes, "geni586-serial" is what you want, and enable SMP with the following entry in your .config file:
--
BR2_LINUX_KERNEL_CUSTOM_CONFIG_FILE="project/astlinux/geni586/linux-smp.config"
--

The default "geni586-serial" console baud rate is 19200, you will probably get a mis-matched baud rate (garbled characters) with the apu.1c at early boot, you can use setconsole-speed-tty, probably:

$ setconsole-speed-tty 38400 ttyS0

(let us know if that works, after a reboot)

Yes, you are the guinea pig. :-)

Keep us informed here...

Lonnie
