Hi,

I have linux running on my beaglebone board, and use “uname -r” to get the current version which is 3.8.13-bone47.

I hope to download the same version of kernel, but I cannot find it from github.

Could you please tell me how to get the version of 3.8.13-bone47 ?

Thanks a lot.

Best Regards,
Mian

It's tagged in this repo:

https://github.com/RobertCNelson/bb-kernel/

git checkout 3.8.13-bone47 -b tmp

But sorry, beyond that i'll be ignoring this thread.. as your 2 years
late for "bone47"..

Feel free to ask about: 3.8.13-bone78 and i'll reply...

Hi Robert,

Thank you for your help.

After I run “git checkout 3.8.13-bone47 -b tmp” command, I got some errors when executing ./patch.sh

Could you please help me further about this problem?

Thanks again.

Best Regards,

Yeap, that's kinda expected... "everything" in that script is from 2
years ago when you checked out 3.8.13-bone47...

So even the scripts used to generate the final kernel image also have
2 years of bugs. :wink:

IF you know what your doing, you can compare "scripts" with this repo...

IF this is your first round of trying to build a kernel, just switch
too: 3.8.13-bone78

If I want to switch to 3.8.13-bone78, I did the following:

git clone https://github.com/RobertCNelson/bb-kernel/

cd bb-kernel

git checkout 3.8.13-bone78 -b tmp

./patch.sh

Is that right? When I run “./patch.sh”, it displays below:

./patch.sh: 25: .: Can’t open /version.sh

Could you please tell me how to get the kernel 3.8.13-bone78 correctly?

Thank you for your help.
