Re: Booting from usb problem

Look at the debug port output. What does it say?

That's it:
I built a debug kernel with KITL disabled.
Debug messaging doesn't work again. Instead it shows a black screen with
"Jumping to 0x00...." written, and after 4 minutes it displays the windows
CE
Desktop.
Do you know why it takes so much time to display the desktop?

Thanks,
Dario

Did you build a debug build of the kernel with KITL disabled? If you do
that, there should be debug messages out of the serial port. If not,
check debug.c and see how your serial debug port is setup. It is your
kernel, so you should know...


Good luck,

I can't see nothing with the serial debug.
I'm sure the serial settings are right, as I see debug message when I
choose
point 2 (or 3 or 4) from the loadcepc menu.
Can you tell me how to enable dubugging when launching nk.bin from
local?

Thanks

First get serial working. There's no way we can help you without those
debug messages. LoadCEPC should already output a lot of debug messages
over 0x3F8 COM1. After that (depending on what you configured in CE as
serial debug port, default = 0x3F8) CE should spew out a lot of debug
messages if you build a debug kernel without KITL enabled and load
that
kernel from disk using LoadCEPC.

Hi all..
I've made an image nk.bin (a standard Internet appliance as I've
accepted
all the default) using PB 5.00. Built it in release mode ... with no
error.
I'm using a usb storage device connected to my target device.
In the usb device I've stored the CEPC disk files (made with
cepcboot.144
and containg loadcepc, ...) and my nk.bin.
It boots starting DOS and launch the "loadcepc screen" so that I can
select
the point
"1.Boot CE/PC (local NK.bin)"
So it load data (nk.bin) from the usb device
"... section phisically start ..."
but after that it display a black screen with "jumping to 0x00229348"
and
anymore.

If I use loadcepc with eboot (selecting case 2 or 3 or 4 instead of
1) and
attaching from platform builder with ethernet, it works: the image is
transferred to the target device and boot correctly.

Why it doesn't work with the nk.bin locally???
PS In the serial debug (38400, n81) nothing is transmitted.


Thanks in advance,
Dario
