[Palm-linux-general] PRC OK ...

[Carlos D. <car...@ya...>]

I have already downloaded and installed the
uClinuxPalm.prc into my palm my configuration is:
A red-hat-linux-7.1 Compaq-Presario 1260 LapTop
Palm Vx connected vis serial port (/dev/ttyS0)

The process was:

1.Download the uClinuxPalm.prc
2.pilot-xfer -i uClinuxPalm.prc (pilot-xfer provided
by pilot-link-0.9.5-2)
3.click on the hotsync button on the cradle
4.wait until it is installed about 5 minutos or so ...
5.do a: cat /dev/ttyS0
6.then Boot Linux !!!! on my palm (pretty exciting)
and watch on the terminal with the cat /dev/ttyS0
command how uClinux started

to send commands y opened another terminal and just
made echo commands to /dev/ttyS0 e.g.

echo cat /proc/version> /dev/ttyS0

and watched on the other terminal the output

uClinux version 2.0.38.1
(da...@be...) (gcc version
2.95.3 20010315 (release)(ColdFire patches - 20010318
from http://fiddes.net/coldfire/)(-msep-data patches))

I hope this helps =)

So ... what's next?

I've got the palm-loader from uclinux.org and I was
thinking about making a little bit more functional prc
file ... any suggestions??

Greetings

Carlos Davila

[Palm-linux-general] PalmLoader working on PalmIIIe, how about your Palm?

[Craig C. <cra...@ya...>]

David McCullough (of Lineo) has wrapped up some work
he had done earlier to get uClinux working on the Palm
Pilot hardware via PalmLoader. I have posted a prc
file which he created on the palm-linux home page at
http://palm-linux.sourceforge.net/

The changes David made will be available soon either
as a set of patches to the 20010622 release of
coldfire or simply with the next release of coldfire.

http://www.uclinux.org/ports/coldfire

Please try out the prc file and get back to me with
your success/failure and any messages or ideas you
have! 

What hardware did you try the prc file on?

What errors occured if any?

What would you like to see in a uClinux distribution
for the Palm Pilot? Wish lists anyone?

What do you want to do with uClinux on the Palm Pilot?

Thanks,
Craig Comstock
