Managed to update the DragonBoard 410c to Linaro Kernel 4.1.0+, from here:<\/p>\n
git clone https:\/\/git.linaro.org\/landing-teams\/working\/qualcomm\/kernel.git -b integration-linux-qcomlt<\/strong><\/span>\r\n<\/code><\/pre>\nSo 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..\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 As the 410c uses the android fastboot, it would seem that the kernel\/boot image has to be a ‘blob’ – including an initrd and device tree file, as well as the kernel itself…\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Instructions can be found at https:\/\/github.com\/96boards\/documentation\/wiki\/Dragonboard-410c-Boot-Image<\/a><\/p>\nThe result was a kernel that booted OK, but was not particularly stable..<\/p>\n
Fedora release 22 (Twenty Two)<\/strong>\r\nKernel 4.1.0 on an aarch64 (ttyMSM0)<\/strong>\r\n.............<\/strong>\r\n# uname -a<\/strong>\r\nLinux rg410c 4.1.0 #1 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jul 1 19:50:26 PDT 2015 aarch64 aarch64 aarch64 GNU\/Linux<\/strong><\/pre>\nTrying to run # vncserver<\/span><\/strong> resulted in a crash, and required a reboot to continue…\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 I will need to check the kernel config to see if there is anything obvious missing, or mis-configured..<\/p>\nIt is rather odd having a system that cannot update\/load its own kernel, and hopefully – once more of these are produced – the U-Boot team will be able to provide a more conventional boot setup..<\/p>\n
