I'm following the instructions here: http://www.gumstix.net/Software/view/Getting-started/Quick-start/111.html and trying the kermit portion but rcv this error: C-Kermit>take ~/gumstix/gumstix-oe/extras/kermit-setup ?No files match - ~/gumstix/gumstix-oe/extras/kermit-setup But, the file is actually there. I have a connection (can easily log into the port with minicom) Is this an error that there's some corruption with the file? or maybe a connection problem? I googled for this error, but didn't find specifics. Not asking you to hold my hand, just pointers would be helpful! Thought others might have come across this or used an alternate method. thanks! brad -- Brad Fuller www.bradfuller.com |

Not all programs treat ~ the same way as the shell does. -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

That begs the question, what do you use to copy over to the gumstix? |

Hi Brad, > go figur.. that was it. > > That begs the question, what do you use to copy over to the gumstix? I use a netMMC card. While under linux, I copy the files over the network onto the MMC card (using wget). Then from within u-boot, I load the files from MMC. I keep a "known good" copy of the kernel and file system, so I can always go back to it if something doesn't work. This is WAY faster than loading stuff over serial. -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |
