Script: auto build and package graf's latest kernel for debian/bootos

[user]

after running this script you should have two deb packages containing binaries of graf's latest kernel. i've tested it on debian (bootos 2.01), ubuntu may work as well.


make_grafs_kernel.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
#	make_grafs_kernel.sh
#
#	
#	download graf chokolo's latest kernel,
#	compile and create deb packages
#
#
#	Tested on:
#	PS3 running debian (installed with bootos installer 2.01)
#
#	Required packages:
#	kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2 build-essential
#	
#	How to install req. packages:
#	apt-get install kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2 build-essential
#

#	PROVIDED WITHOUT ANY WARRENTY


# clean-up

# get kernel and unpack

INSTALL:

dpkg -i linux*.deb

EITHER:
edit /kboot.conf and reboot if you know what you're doing,
but don't forget to pass hugepages="1" to your kernel.

OR use another script:
make_kboot.sh

#!/bin/bash
#
#	WARNING:
#	ABSOLUTELY NO WARRENTY OR WHATEVER
#

DEFAULT_BOOT=$(head -1 /kboot.conf)
DEFAULT_UUID=${DEFAULT_BOOT##*=}


IFS="
"
for LINE in `cat /kboot.conf`
do
  if [ "${LINE##*=}" != "$DEFAULT_UUID" ]
  then
  	echo "##### ERROR: MORE THEN ONE UUID IN /kboot.conf"
  	echo "support for one device only, sorry"
  	exit 1
  fi
done


VMLINUX=(`ls /boot/vmlinux* | sort`)
INITRD=(`ls /boot/initrd.img* | sort`)

CNT=0
rm kboot.conf

echo "
################# MAKE_KBOOT ###################"

while [ "$CNT" -lt "${#VMLINUX[*]}" ]
do
  VM=${VMLINUX["$CNT"]}
  RD=${VM/\/boot\/vmlinux/initrd.img}
  if [ `echo $VM | egrep -i graf` ]
  then
  	VER=${VM/graf-/}
        VER=${VER/\/boot\/vmlinux/graf}
        echo "$VER=$VM hugepages=\"1\" initrd=$RD root=UUID=$DEFAULT_UUID" >> kboot.conf
        echo "[hugepages]: $VER" 
  else
  	VER=${VM/\/boot\/vmlinux/debian}
        echo "$VER=$VM initrd=$RD root=UUID=$DEFAULT_UUID" >> kboot.conf
        echo "[ default ]: $VER"
  fi
  CNT=`expr $CNT + 1`
done

if [ "0" -lt "$CNT" ]
then
	mv kboot.conf /kboot.conf
	echo "################################################"
	echo "[   end   ]: $CNT Kernels written to /kboot.conf
	     if you want to run another Kernel,
	     reboot now.
	     "
else
	echo "##### ERROR: KERNEL NOT FOUND"
	echo "didn't find any kernels in /boot."
fi

the new kernel should show up in boot menu of bootos now.

reboot and check it out.

another goodie, dmpatch.sh:
needed on kmeaw's cfw to gain syscon access

get it from graf's git

you can try marcan's asbestos hex. unfortunately it supports netboot only.

[dingoo]

so i make a script file and run it (copying and pasting the 1st box) then do the install command after?

yes you can, if you have the following packages installed:
kernel-package libncurses5-dev fakeroot wget bzip2 build-essential

ok cheers got ya

OK well i finally got around to installing bootos2.01 last night but i have a problem now. When i go back to run linux i see no other option under the lv2 patcher other than the one to install.

I installed it on my 500gb usb hdd but it will not let me boot from it, it only wants to install again.

I know it is installed because i can access the drive through windows using Diskinternals linux reader and everything is there as it should be.

I dont know it there is something i am missing but i really would rather not re-install because my internet is kinda slow. Thanks.
