Had to use archlinux toolchain tho - linaro would not build, complaining about fstack-protector-strong not supported :(
<amstan>
chromeos uses 4.9, arch uses 5.2
<amstan>
i think your linaro is 4.8, so that could explain it
<bashintosh>
right - I read fstack-protector-strong was supported after gcc 4.9.. Happy days anyway!
<amstan>
it's also 4.9, but we have a team of people fine tuning it and keeping track of changes we might need, so it might be more advanced than the vanilla 4.9

<naobsd>
2GB model is 39800JPY = 330USD
<naobsd>

naobsd: sorry to hear that
<naobsd>
probably buy 4GB on US amazon + transfer service will be cheap ;)
<amstan>
yeah, probably best
<amstan>
i recently payed about $50 to ship one to romania, wasn't too hard

naobsd: from your experience, is a compressed kernel image (zImage) built into kernel.img with mkkrnlimg, supposed to boot? No kernel in boot.img in my case.
<bashintosh>
there could be a million reasons why it doesn't boot, but sadly the boot process stops at "Starting kernel" with no further info :(
<bashintosh>
so I am trying to figure if my process to get to kernel.img is correct or not first :)
<amstan>
bashintosh: this is still for the chromebook?
<bashintosh>
amstan: just the kernel (ChromeOS 3.14) - hardware is CX929 for now, RK3288 PMIC ACT8846. Can try other boards RK3288 based but I guess it'll be the same result..
<amstan>
there was some magic regarding early uart
<amstan>
i think the firmware set it up, then the kernel used something that the firmware left somewhere
<bashintosh>
amstan: mmmh, that could explain why it "hangs" - something "easy" to get rid of perhaps? When you say firmware you mean Chromebook firmware right?

naobsd: thanks! Currently I am using RK spin of U-Boot - my question is: creating kernel.img from zImage (compressed) using mkkrnlimg is supposed to be the "proper" way to get a working kernel.img?
<bashintosh>
Does kernel.img have anything to do with the DT blob? I have seen some cases where they seem to merge .dtb with kernel.img but I think that could be for mainline kernels only, not sure.
<naobsd>
kernel.img doesn't to anything with dtb
<naobsd>
you may combine kernel (!kernel.img) and dtb if kernel (!kernel.img) support it
