ahh right, so won't work as after clean format, I misunderstood
<triplelexx>
then, ok I'll give that a go
<jas-hacks_>
It can be done with a clean format, which is quicker but you need to create an ext4 partition which starts about 15mb away from the start of the disk. This can done easily in Gparted.
<triplelexx>
ok, so really just need the uboot and repartition
<jas-hacks_>
yes
<triplelexx>
cool, thanks for the help
<triplelexx>
I'll try that now
rm has joined #imx6-dongle
<rm>
hello
<rm>
is there any Debian image for GK802&
<rm>
? *
<jas-hacks_>
rm: I don't think anyone has create one
<jas-hacks_>
/s/create/created
<triplelexx>
sorry jas is the boot partition supposed to be FAT?
<triplelexx>
and the rest ext4
<jas-hacks_>
triplelexx: There should no partition on it
<triplelexx>
with gparted
<triplelexx>
I'm starting fresh, I thought you suggest make a 15mb partition
<triplelexx>
?
<jas-hacks_>
in gparted you create one ext4 partition with a offset of 15mb
<triplelexx>
oh right
<triplelexx>
and then dd to the start?
<triplelexx>
the uboot
<triplelexx>
that's the bs=1 bit or something right?
<triplelexx>
cool, I will try
<jas-hacks_>
uboot is dd if=u-boot.imx bs=1k seek=1 of=/dev/<device> && sync
<jas-hacks_>
and untar rootfs on ext4 partition
<triplelexx>
sweet, think I got it from here now
<triplelexx>
many thanks

rm: no, ubuntu 11.10, 12.04 and xubuntu something, also we are good with this situation
<rz2k>
(these are all armel, no armhf libs are available)
<jas-hacks_>
We have the gpu armhf libs but not all for the vpu
<rz2k>
rm: also we dont have much users and a big wiki/ML, so we are not really a target for you
<rz2k>
jas-hacks_: yes, I meant a set of libs :)
<rz2k>
hope timesys will share everything some day
<rz2k>
or we just reverse it
<rm>
rz2k, I just got my GK802 from our slowpost
<rz2k>
lol
<rm>
and I dislike (or you could say despise) ubuntu
<rz2k>
it didnt go on fire in moscow, you should send them a flower
<rm>
yeah that is truly awesome
<jas-hacks_>
rz2k: still looking to design a imx6 board?
<rz2k>
jas-hacks_: 50% chances of happening sometime in summer
<rz2k>
I'm looking forward for it, but I might be busy doing q7 carrier board
<jas-hacks_>
rz2k: you can get pcb made?
<rz2k>
yes
<rz2k>
that is not for me, my boss wants q7 carrier board or imx6 custom board with needed stuff, first seems to be easier
<rz2k>
rm: you can go for it, there are sources of ubuntu rootfs on freescale's site
<rz2k>
and we dont have anything incompatible with default stuff
<rz2k>
they even have .debs
<rz2k>
(and sources for building them)
<jas-hacks_>
rz2k: How much is Q7 som?
<rz2k>
~$100-$300
<rz2k>
there are many options
<rz2k>
they have module with 4GB ram and 16GB emmc...
