Build on gnubee generates none booting image #21

Open BlackLotus opened 4 years ago

BlackLotus commented 4 years ago

When building the image on the gnubee itself an image is created, but when booting it stops after "verifying checksum". Cross compiling just works. Didn't yet analyze where the problem lies, but since it doesn't even start the image I would say it's the generated kernel. Will test it later by replacing the kernel with a cross compiled kernel (don't know yet when).

Strange ... I'll build one and see what happens. Might take a while :-)

Just for reproducability: I tried both of the images linked here https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs/wiki/Install-firmware#debian with the debian system with the procedure described here https://github.com/gnubee-git/GnuBee_Docs/wiki/Debian

(Sorry for the delay). I don't understand that last comment. The images linked there not lot related to this gnubee-tools package ... except that they are used on the same hardware.

Or are you saying that you installed those firmware images, then used gnubee-tool running on those images to build a new firmware image? That would be somewhat interesting, but not something that I want to spend any time on as those are very old images and I would likely just find there is something missing there.

If you cross-compile a firmware image with gnubee-tools, then boot the gnubee and build a new image natively there - and that doesn't work. Then I would be interested.
