Topic: Kernel command line

Hi
I brick my chumby trying to change the Kernel's Command line, i want boot my chumby from USB memory, the internal nand flash has only 32M  for storage, Is possible use a NAND flash block or for store the kernel Command line? If we have such partition we can overwrite the kernel setting from user space with the nandwrite tool

Best Regards

Re: Kernel command line

You should always be able to reflash a working kernel through the special options menu (unless you reflashed that, but I wouldn't recommend doing so).
I know the bootloader passing kernel command line is a pita if you, for example want to use jffs2 as a rootfs. Check out this oneliner the prevents the kernel from using the command line the bootloader passes: http://www.openembedded.org/repo/org.op … line.patch

You will now need to set CONFIG_CMDLINE in your kernel .config to something meaningfull, like for example "console=ttyS0,38400 root=/dev/mtdblock5 rootfstype=jffs2 psplash=false"
