beagle-xm and 3.10.6 kernel

Hi,

I am trying to boot with a rootfs over nfs with a 3.10.6 kernel.
Looks like major changes were made for the USB subsystem, so I’m not too surprised that it’s not an out of the box experience.

… but …

I saw this [1] on Robs trusty git repo, which makes me wonder if a 3.10 kernel is at all possible to have networking compiled into the uImage.

Did someone manage to boot a beagle-xm with a rootfs from nfs and a 3.10 kernel? If yes can you please post the kernel config?

Regards,

Robert

Nope... With both v3.10.x/v3.11-rc ehci is very broken on omap3... If
you want usb/nfs/boot, stay with v3.9.x for now..

Thanks for the quick reply. This will save me a couple of sleepless nights;) At the moment I’m building 3.9.11, which will hopefully work.

I am very keen to see your 3.11+ multi-arch kernel.

Hi,

Just for completeness of this post I would like to mention that with 3.9.11 I can happily load the rootfs over nfs.
