OH! Silly me.
It has been awhile since doing a new install, I'll be back.
In the meantime go grab the 3.19rc6 kernel fron xeno74. The newer 4 series are not all ready for primetime. I usually use a very old 3.5.7 kernel for installation.
Kernel 4.5

Re: Kernel 4.5
The commands you enter do not persist after reboot. If you need help setting up CFE after this part of the circus is over, Linux installed, we will certainly do that.
Use the 3.19 kernel for install, I think even the kernels back to 3.15 should work. Once you get up and running you can try the newer kernels, you can even make your own.
Do you have a internal CF card?

Re: Kernel 4.5
installing from 3.19 now
No CF card...

Re: Kernel 4.5
You might want to get a CF, I have found 4GB to be plenty. It really is handy for storing kernels. The only thing about them is you should not delete a kernel, tends to screw up the card, but if you copy the wanted items someplace, reformat the card then put those items back on then everything is OK. Just weird crap.
Once you get all installed you will need to boot with the 3.19 kernel and get the modules copied to /lib/modules.
There are several ways of doing this I usually;
in Accessories > LXTerminal
type in at the prompt su
type in the password for root
type in pcmanfm
That should open a file manager with su (Super User), root privileges.
Now copy the modules folder (3.19.0-rc6_A-EON_AMIGA_one_X1000_Nemo)from 3.19 stuff to /lib/modules. The whole folder, not just what is in it.
After that is done close the file manager ( click the X thingie on top), and type exit into the terminal then close that.
Then reboot again with 3.19.
I know your network is busy right now so when your done we will go from there.

Re: Kernel 4.5
Thanks mechanic.
How small a cf card might i get away with? I think I have a 256mb one somewhere...

Re: Kernel 4.5
256MB
That should be fine. Most of xenos' kernels are around 25MB so you could store several of them.

Startmenu set up for linux. I can live with the kernel on usb for now.
Not totally certain if the CFE> setenv -p bootargs "root=/dev/sdd1" command is sticking though...?
Also seem to note that boot freezes on random pool intialization if the mouse buttons arent pressed on boot up...
Will do a few reboots to test.

Re: Kernel 4.5
The manual that came with your X1000 has info on this. That part of the command is setenv -p "setenv bootargs 'root=/dev/sdd1'" , but you will want to do it as a MENU_x_COMMND option. Notice the quotes, singles inside of doubles.ddni wrote:Posting from Iceweasel on the X1000!

My menu was setup as
setenv -p MENU_2_COMMAND 'setenv bootargs "root=/dev/sdb1" ; boot -elf -noints -fatfs cf0:vmlinux-4.4rc8'
Of course you'll use other parameters.
then
setenv -p MENU_2_LABEL "LinuxMint" or whatever you choose.
Mouse buttons on boot? That's a new one. Ain't got a clue.
