Kernel hangs after upgrade.

[Whatboy]

I use the README-PLUG-UPDATE.sh like
 

Code:

sudo ./README-PLUG-UPDATE.sh 2.6.38.4 --nandkernel

but had to install wget and updated the /etc/host to get the files., but forget to uncomment the environments in the script, crap. but then connected the sheevaplug to the computer and after the marvel> prompt, I do this...

Code:

setenv mainlineLinux yes
setenv arcNumber 2097
setenv bootargs rootfstype=jffs2 console=ttyS0,115200 mtdparts=orion_nand:0x400000@0x100000(uImage),0x1fb00000@0x500000(rootfs) rw root=/dev/mtdblock1 rw ip=192.168.1.1:192.168.1.254:192.168.1.254:255.255.255.0:DB88FXX81:eth0:none
saveenv

then run

Code:

run $(bootargs); nand read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000; bootm 0x800000

and this is all I got.

Code:

## Error: "rootfstype=jffs2" not defined

NAND read: device 0 offset 0x100000, size 0x400000

Anybody knows how to fix it please!?

Oppss think it was a typo in the bootcmd, instead of

Code:

bootcmd=nand read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000

it was

Code:

bootcmd=nand=read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000

But now it doesn't autoboot, I have to enter to boot it

Code:

run $(bootargs); nand read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000; bootm 0x800000

but it gives me the error

Code:

## Error: "rootfstype=jffs2" not defined

This is what print gives me

GOOD NEWS: I am half smort!!!

Found the sheevaplug installer, did what it told Me to do, but now booting the Kernel, gives Me garbage...

Like:

Code:

Starting kernel ...

Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
$+˔BV��j4�*aq-��jAz�)IP��,P�jYRL�i,��)u�
                                        _3�gA\�m��iJ:YF-(�kQ;��v�e{��_6�;Qq�PEt�5Fmq+�4-JA(�k�sje1��q�GQs�UE�UEt-�@ ,+�b3�

The environment console is chopped to:

Code:

console=a0000
e=ttyS0,115200 mtdparts=nand_mtd:0xc0000@0(uboot)ro,0x1ff00000@0x100000(root)

So I guess you went back to an older kernel, please see this thread http://plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=2002.0

Good luck

[Whatboy]

Yes, I did, Found this thred http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=3680.0 and now it is back...
