[opensuse-arm] Getting started with opensuse
Hi to all I would like to try opensuse-ARM on a particolar and almost unknow board produce by ST Microelectronics ( http://www.st.com/internet/mcu/product/251211.jsp ). In order to do this I'm tryng to search if exist some minimal rootfs ready (if it's possibile hardfp armv7), or some installation procedure to start. I search on the opensuse site, but I'm unable to find what I'm looking for (surely my fault). So, could anyone help me? Thanks in advance, regards Alexjan. -- Alexjan Carraturo -- Free Software User Group Italia administrator (http://www.fsugitalia.org) Fedora/openSUSE Ambassador member of FSFE Italian Team Twitter/Facebook/Identica: axjslack Blog: http://axjslack.wordpress.com -- -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org

Sure! Just grab yourself the latest "rootfs" build from http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/Factory:/ARM/images/ which is exactly what you're searching for :). Obviously you still need to provide your own kernel, but I suppose that's not an issue.

Hrm - sounds like we're lacking documentation on that one then. If you get around to it, it would be awesome if you could update the wiki with your findings! Alex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org

Yes. That is what I'm looking for. Thank you for the help. Your supposition it's right, the kernel is not a problem (I hope :) ). I will start to test this on the STM board soon as possible.

I would like to do, but may be that this it's already written somewhere, and I was unable to find. I did not want to be critical of the wiki, and I would not want to mess putting links that have already been made.

Cool! Looking very much forward to it :).

Heh don't worry about that part. If you couldn't find it, whoever comes next won't find it either. So better have information available redundantly than unfindable ;) Alex -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-arm+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-arm+owner@opensuse.org
