Re: [Gumstix-users] Reflashing the OE image via CF or ethernet

SourceForge Headquarters 225 Broadway Suite 1600 San Diego, CA 92101 +1 (858) 454-5900

Michael,

See the bottom part of the tutorial here:

http://www.gumstix.net/Software/view/Getting-started/Setting-up-a-build-environment/111.html

Specifically:

"This initial build will take a bit of time since it will need to download all the source code. When it completes, you will find the root file system image and the kernel image in ~/gumstix/gumstix-oe/tmp/deploy/glibc/images/gumstix-custom-verdex(or connex if that is the machine type you selected):

$ ls -1 ~/gumstix/gumstix-oe/tmp/deploy/glibc/images/gumstix-custom-verdex/
Angstrom-gumstix-basic-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20071101-gumstix-custom-verdex.rootfs.jffs2
gumstix-basic-image-gumstix-custom-verdex.jffs2
modules-2.6.22-r1-gumstix-custom-verdex.tgz
uImage-2.6.22-r1-gumstix-custom-verdex.bin

You'll notice that there appear to be 2 jffs2 images above. However, in reality there is just one: gumstix-basic-image-gumstix-custom-verdex.jffs2 is a link to the actual image, Angstrom-gumstix-basic-image-glibc-ipk-2007.9-test-20071101-gumstix-customverdex.rootfs.jffs2"
