Hi,
Iam using TC4.0 for the POS terminals that Iam working on. I need support for COM5 port for which I made changes to the below line items in the configuration item.
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_NR_UART=6
CONFIG_SERIAL_8250_RUNTIME_UARTS=6
I followed the instructions on
http://wiki.tinycorelinux.net/wiki:custom_kernel, till step #8 because all I needed was the kernel image.
I built the following version linux-3.0.21-patched.txz which I downloaded and did not apply any patches to it.
After I built the kernel bzImage (I tried giving "make vmlinuz " but it didnt allow me to). I booted my POS with the tinycore image and the bzImage that I built, the system halts when booting mid way.
Do I need to build the modules as well(building gave me compile errors - saying XT_DSCP_MASK not defined
) and use those, rather than using the tinycore.gz file?
Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance folks.
