19:09 < wallyhack> quick question anyone? I want to reconfigure my target kernel do I do this under /target/t2-trunk/target/ibm ???? thanks
19:33 < wallyhack> anyone here?
20:13 < wallyhack> can anyone help me updating my kernel configuration for target using 8.0 trunk.. thanks
22:37 < rxr> re
22:38 < rxr> what do you want to configure?
22:38 < rxr> just the kernel config?
22:38 < rxr> you can use target/ibm/kernel.conf and target/ibm/kernel.conf.sh
22:39 < rxr> and patch via target/ibm/pkg_linux26.patch and inject script code using target/ibm pkg_kvm.conf
22:39 < rxr> if you are more specific I can answer more concretet / in-depth
22:39 < wallyhack> thanks how can i recomplie the target kernel?
22:39 < rxr> in your running system or a sandbox?
22:40 < wallyhack> the kernel that is exported to a 3.5" drive
22:41 < rxr> exported to a 2.5" drive?
22:41 < rxr> 3.5 ...
22:41 < rxr> you are kidding?
22:41 < rxr> what are you building for?
22:41 < wallyhack> a system that boots from the 3.5" drive
22:41 < rxr> err
22:41 < rxr> in current production?
22:41 < rxr> sorry, I'm in shock
22:42 < wallyhack> yes
22:42 < wallyhack> just need to rebuild the kernel
22:42 < rxr> well, I still do not get the 3.5" point, ...
22:42 < wallyhack> for the external drive
22:42 < rxr> if you want to build in the sandbox:
22:42 < rxr> scripts/Build-Pkg -cfg ibm -job 5-linux
22:43 < rxr> in case it is a native build, ...
22:43 < rxr> and your config is named ibm
22:43 < rxr> if it is a cros build:
22:43 < rxr> scripts/Build-Pkg -cfg ibm -job 1-linux
22:43 < rxr> into the runnig system scripts/Emerge-Pkg -cfg ibm linux
22:43 < rxr> maybe with -force if the system considers it up-to-date
22:43 < rxr> do you build a sandbox target? for x86, ppc, or something else?
22:44 < wallyhack> ok great I will that a try.. x86-64
22:44 < rxr> why do you boot it form a 3.5" flopyy?
22:45 < rxr> a 1.44 MB or 2.88 MB one?
22:45 < rxr> or just qemu/kvm?
22:45 < rxr> I'm now so confused about that fact ;-)
22:45 < wallyhack> no a 3.5" hdd Solid State
22:45 < rxr> oh, ok
22:45 < rxr> hehe
22:46 < wallyhack> floppy I haven't used a floopy in 20 years
22:46 < rxr> in the kernel context I assumed you mean write the kernel to floppy like back in the days, ...
22:47 < rxr> best always ask on the list
22:47 < rxr> I'm not alawys in IRC, as I had to bump my level of productivity, ..
22:47 < wallyhack> oh no, it has a grub loader on the solid state drive actually pretty fast booting.. nice job on the t2 system
22:47 < rxr> email is better to respond later
22:48 < wallyhack> ok thanks I just have to get over this hump
22:49 < rxr> ok, getting 11 here (23:00), Germany, need sleeop eventually
22:49 < rxr> you are in the US?
22:56 < wallyhack> yes at a new IBM R&D Center Delray Beach Florida. Thank-you for your help get some sleep
23:01 < rxr> cool
23:01 < rxr> good night
