Any progress with the Dell 7010/9010 #78

Closed Firminator closed 1 month ago

Firminator commented 2 years ago

Dasharo version

Whatever .bin was posted @ https://docs.dasharo.com/variants/dell_optiplex/releases/ several month ago

Question text

I'm running Dasharo on this Dell box. Just wondering if there is going to be any new releases or if development is abandoned in favor of the MSI Z690-A WIFI

pietrushnic commented 2 years ago

@Firminator please excuse us we are so sloppy with that. We want to make proper Dasharo release. I even rebased everything to most recent coreboot. What I miss is time for debricking my setup and testing new release.

I can't promise anything, but would appreciate any support if you have time. Would you mind to join Dasharo Matrix ?

Firminator commented 2 years ago

No problem. Just checking. Thanks for the invitation... I might join and read around if I can find time which is increasingly difficult.

Since my CH341b (it turns out that it was not the "a" variant, however the "b" variant is equivalent, since the only difference is that it has a choice between external and internal oscillation, with mine using external components, in the same exact way as my CH341a has) has arrived (just in case I'll need it), I am currently in the process of cloning the necessary repositories (although I am not using Docker, since I do not have enough experience with it yet).

There aren't any binaries on the website, which I can understand, however the only tag is a prerelease v0.0.0, which doesn't seem right.

Can I please be pointed towards where v0.1.0 is (since the last version is unleased)?

Update: For some odd reason, newer versions aren't shown on GitHub's website, however I can see them from the terminal, so v0.2.0 it is.

Hi @moriel5 thanks for letting us know you working on it. We also found time to move things little bit forward and there is discussion on Dasharo Matrix channel. Most recent status is in the documentation, please check here - building manual section would be most intreesting to you.

moriel5 commented 2 years ago

Thanks for the update @pietrushnic.

Unfortunately I seem to be having issues compiling GCC 8 at the moment, I'll see what could be the the problem, and then I'll continue.

pietrushnic commented 2 years ago

@moriel5 why not to use my instruction directly? I assume you may need Docker, but installation is quite trivial. Trying to compile toolchain would cause some overhead and mess with you OS (additional packages needed).

moriel5 commented 2 years ago

@pietrushnic I agree, and that is my plan in the long run, however as I had already said, I lack experience with Docker.

That, and the fact that my system is already supposed to be set up for compiling toolchains regardless, makes it faster and easier for me to work like this for the time being.

pietrushnic commented 2 years ago

@moriel5 ok, just wanted to point that Docker setup is couple simple steps away and gives nice isolation. Please let us know what results you get using your way.

moriel5 commented 2 years ago

@pietrushnic Thanks, from what I have heard, that is one of the benefits of Docker. It's just that in these few weeks I have less time than usual (I need/ed to travel quite a bit, for things such as a friend's wedding), and so learning how to use Docker will need to wait.

No problem, I'll make sure to post the results here, and if you wish to post them anywhere else, free free to do so.

pietrushnic commented 2 years ago

@moriel5 sure, no problem. We appreciate your support.

moriel5 commented 2 years ago

@pietrushnic I seem to have found the culprit to the GCC compilation issue (but I do not really understand it), should I post it as a separate issue, or should I post it here?

pietrushnic commented 2 years ago

@moriel5 I assume it may be more related to coreboot itself than to Dasharo. Feel free to post it as separate issue, but solving toolchain issues is not something we should deal in Dasharo, but more in upstream projects.

moriel5 commented 2 years ago

@pietrushnic Yeah, that certainly makes sense, this isn't like meklort's BCM5719 firmware, where a custom variant of LLVM 10 is needed.

I'll post it as a separate issue, however meant to be a sort of "hub" for any possible issues I may encounter while trying to compile Dasharo, and I'll keep the GCC part as minimal as possible.

We continue work on Dell OptiPlex 7010/9010 every OptiPlex Tuesday
