I'm using uImage built from DaVinci-PSP-SDK-03.20.00.12, with rootfs in RAM. I tried arago-demo-image-da850-omapl138-evm.tar.gz, but it kept giving an error on decompressing the file on my custom board (decompresses fine in Ubuntu 10.04). So I tried diskImage.tar.gz form the Hawkboard portal and it decompresses without errors, and I get a Linux prompt. I'm able to login as root for on serial port ttyS2.
I then commented out the following line in board-da850.evm.c: __raw_writel(0, IO_ADDRESS(DA8XX_UART1_BASE) + 0x30);
I connected ttyS1 (UART1) to my PC. To my surprise, I'm able to login as root on ttyS1 as well as ttyS2 at the same time! The following appears on ttyS1:
.-------.
| | .-.
| | |-----.-----.-----.| | .----..-----.-----.
| | | __ | ---'| '--.| .-'| | |
| | | | | |--- || --'| | | ' | | | |
'---'---'--'--'--. |-----''----''--' '-----'-'-'-'
-' |
'---'
The Angstrom Distribution hawkboard.org ttyS1
Hawkboard.org 2009.03 hawkboard.org ttyS1
hawkboard.org login:
The above also appears on ttyS2, after all the boot messages (with ttyS2 instead of ttyS1). Is this normal behavior? I want to use UART1 to control peripherals, not as a second console terminal. Where can I turn off this "feature" and stop the above message from going out on UART1? Where are the names Angstrom Distribution and Hawkboard set?
Also, if If arago-demo-image-da850-omapl138-evm.tar.gz is the rootfs to use, how can I eliminate the decompression error (I think it was unexpected EOF)?
