ARM64 – DragonBoard 410c to Kernel 4.1..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on July 2, 2015 by RGJuly 2, 2015

Managed to update the DragonBoard 410c to Linaro Kernel 4.1.0+, from here: git clone https://git.linaro.org/landing-teams/working/qualcomm/kernel.git -b integration-linux-qcomlt So far, I have made the kernel ‘monolithic’ with all necessary modules built-in (‘y” instead of ‘m’), as this was how the original Linaro/Qualcomm kernel was built..     As the 410c uses the android fastboot, it would seem that the kernel/boot … Continue reading →

ARM – DreamPlug to Kernel 4.0-rc1..

Adventures With Linux ™ Posted on March 3, 2015 by RGMarch 29, 2015

Now that the DreamPlug has a stable power supply (see previous post..) I decided to live dangerously and update the u-boot version and install a modern ‘device tree’ plus kernel.. It has been mentioned many times before that the u-boot update for a DreamPlug is fraught, and can result in a ‘brick’..   There should be a way … Continue reading →
