To support Linux on the Snapper 9260 Quick Start Kit, we use a modified 2.6.20 kernel.
Source for this kernel is available from linux-2.6.20.tar.gz.
Building the Linux Kernel
Once the kernel has been downloaded, unpack it and build the image as follows:
andre@tutira:~/snapper$ tar xfz linux-2.6.20.tar.gz andre@tutira:~/snapper$ cd linux-2.6.20 andre@tutira:~/snapper/linux-2.6.20$ make snapper9260_defconfig andre@tutira:~/snapper/linux-2.6.20$ make -j4 uImage
Once this is complete, the file arch/arm/boot/uImage will be created, containing the final build kernel. This can be then either copied into the NAND flash on the Snapper module, or downloaded over the ethernet for testing purposes.
Changing Linux Kernel Options
To change the Linux kernel options, use the menuconfig option:
andre@tutira:~/snapper/linux-2.6.20$ make menuconfig
Pre-Built binaries
Pre-built binaries of the Bluewater Linux kernel can be found on our website, at binaries/. These are available for both the Snapper 9260 and Snapper 270 modules. Other modules can be built from the provided source using the above instructions.
