<user135> lol ok
<user135> you can tell I'm new to this
<user135> ;)
<Turl> we were all new to this some time ago :)
<mripard> Turl: but as a separate patchset, right?
<Turl> mripard: you think a separate patchset will be best?
<user135> When I do: dd if=spl/sunxi-spl.bin of=/dev/sdb bs=1024 seek=8 I get dd: opening `spl/sunxi-spl.bin': No such file or directory
<Turl> user135: yeah, sounds like you built uboot for some other device and not a sunxi
<Turl> what device do you have?
<user135> a13b
<Turl> I'm guessing that's "a13 mid"
<Turl> is that a 1GB or 512M model?
<user135> I think 512MB
<user135> but I'm not sure
<Turl> check on android
<Turl> on settings-about
<user135> k
<Turl> you should see the amount of ram
<user135> it doesn't say
<Turl> install a terminal app then and try running 'free'
<user135> can I do that using adb shell?
<Turl> yeah
<user135> not found
<Turl> 'busybox free' ?
<Turl> if that doesn't work, cat /proc/meminfo
<user135> total used free shared buffers
<user135> Mem: 362064 286588 75476 0 3660
<user135> Swap: 0 0 0
<user135> -/+ buffers: 282928 79136
<Turl> ok, so it's a 512M
<Turl> user135: make clean; make a13_mid_config; make
<user135> ok
<Turl> might not need the last make even, not sure now
<Turl> hm, yeah, you need it
<user135> huh? It's making
<user135> let me reboot my pc, my sdcard isn't getting mounted properly

<user> Turl, I compiled, and put it on my device, but nothing happens when pressing the power button, screen is blank
<user> Do I need a hard-float compiler?
<Turl> nope
<Turl> you won't see anything on the screen until very late on the boot, a lot of things can go wrong in the middle
<Turl> get a serial console if possible
<Turl> if you can't get a serial console, check your script.bin and kernel are in the right places and script.bin is configured to output to the right screen
<Turl> good night :)
<user> ok goodnight

<Turl> libv: what did you end up doing to get the abi? :)
<libv> Turl: nothing yet
<libv> Turl: i am not sure whether your suggestion would work for the redhat one
<Turl> what was the dumpmachine output?
<libv> i just helped the gcc maintainer move, so i am not up for coding today, same for yesterday, i was hit too badly by my thursday-all-night binge
<libv> armv7hl-redhat-linux-gnueabi
<libv> which is hf
<Turl> FUU RH
<libv> :)
<Turl> well, you can add another if to check for hl
<libv> let me poke the suse guys
<libv> sure
<rz2k> I believe arch had same problems with hf detection
<libv> yeah, there will be a bit of pain to gather them all, but it is not an endless task
<libv> so i was really happy with eric molitors email, that's exactly the sort of thing we need now
<libv> i am just going to add more direct cases
<libv> we can then document which distribution claims to have what
<mnemoc> as we rely in gcc anyway, can't be tested compiling a .s ?
<mnemoc> or .c + objdump
<mnemoc> or something that doesn't imply knowing every possible -dumpmachine
<libv> every possible dumpmachine is actually going to be pretty limited
<libv> 8 or 10 or so
<mnemoc> ah, ok. fair enough
