Hi Christian,
I would test this version of the kernel if you could tell me how to proceed.
Is it just a matter of replacing the .dts file?

Hi Amiguy,
No, you don't need to replace the dts file. You only need to copy the uImage-5.9 file to the boot partition and start it with U-Boot.
Code: Select all
X5000> setenv bootargs root=/dev/sda2
Code: Select all
X5000> load sata 1:1 1000000 uImage-5.9
For the X5000/40:
Code: Select all
X5000> load sata 1:1 2000000 cyrus-p5040.dtb
For the X5000/20:
Code: Select all
X5000> load sata 1:1 2000000 cyrus-p5020.dtb
That's all.
Please try it.
Thanks,
Christian

I can't find the file. I guess it must be in the zip file you sent us.
For the X5000 part, I only have three directories: dtbs, Kernel_Modules and src without the uImage file.

The
uImage-5.9 file is in the directory "
linux-image-5.9-rc5-X1000_X5000/X5000_and_QEMU_e5500" of the package
linux-image-5.9-rc5-X1000_X5000.tar.gz. It isn't in the directories dtbs, kernel_modules and src.

The image file is inside the zip... next to the three directories....

Okay, I don't know why, but I can't extract the files properly, either on my Linux laptop, nor in my Fienix environment.

And if u try to extract the files using the commandline...
To unpack a tar.gz file, you can use the tar command from the shell. Here's an example: tar -xzf filename.tar.gz

Strange...
root@Fienix:/home/fienix/Desktop# tar -xzf linux-image-5.9-rc5-X1000_X5000.tar.gz
gzip: stdin: unexpected end of file
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
I think the archive is not good, at least the download is not working properly.
