[leaf-user] 7.5.0 on Alix

[Otto H. - T. <ott...@te...>]

Dear list users,
Probably no one has tested versions 7.5.0 on Alix boards, because there 
are several problems with it.

I used packages from this archive:
Bering-uClibc_7.5.0_geode_syslinux_serial115200

On boot I saw the following warnings:
[ 36.334528] leds-gpio leds-gpio: error -ENOENT: Failed to get GPIO 
'geode-leds/alix:0'
[ 36.342591] leds-gpio leds-gpio: probe with driver leds-gpio failed 
with error -2

After boot I get "firewall login:" on the serial console, but I can't 
log in. I can't type any letter because the console on serial port ttyS0 
is dead, so I can't even create a root password.

So I replaced configdb.lrp with one created on another machine.
Now I am able to log in via dropbear.

But I am not able to use the menu system lrcfg because the e3 editor is 
not working. Even from the command line "e3 /etc/modules" does not open 
the file. For all files that need to be edited, you have to use the vim 
editor.

I did not test geoip on Alix, but the rest of functions and programs 
seems to be working fine.

I'm curious if anyone can fix any of this.

Kind regards
Otto
