Foxconn nT330I
Note: <MD#> has to be replaced by the mediadirector number.
Note: below is based on having only one connection to TV being HDMI
Prepare the core;
LAN controller Attansic requires module atl1c. Without it I have kernel panic during an attepmt to PXE boot. Way to get nettop work described in wiki page http://wiki.linuxрmce.org/index.php/Unrecognized_NIC, section Modify the media director initial ramdisk.
cd / mkdir AR81Family cd AR81Family wget http://lnx.sensibile.it/files/foxconn/AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.4.tar.gz tar -xvf AR81Family-linux-v1.0.1.4.tar.gz
Build the atl1c kernel module
Modify .src/makefile changing "DRIVER_NAME = atl1e" to "DRIVER_NAME = atl1c";
cd src vim Makefile
Save the file and start building;
cd .. make make install
You'll get some error messages but I noticed still atl1c.ko is build. atl1kc is located in ./src
cp atl1e.ko /lib/modules/2.6.xx-xx-generic/kernel/drivers/net/
In the bottom of /etc/initramfs-tools-interactor/modules add "atl1c" without quotations and save Now rebuild the initial diskless image
/usr/pluto/bin/Diskless_BuildDefaultImage.sh
MD Time
After this you can connect your MD and take it for its first boot.....
When the initial MD has been created the first boot "real" boot will fail due to the fact the MD image has no atl1c module so we have to add that;
cp /lib/modules/2.6.xx-xx-generic/kernel/drivers/net/atl1e.ko /usr/pluto/diskless/<MD#>/lib/modules/2.6.xx-xx-generic/kernel/drivers/net/
In the bottom of /usr/pluto/diskless/<MD#>/etc/modules add "atl1c" without quotations and save In the bottom of /usr/pluto/diskless/<MD#>/etc/initramfs-tools/modules add "atl1c" without quotations and save
Now rebuild the image;
cd /usr/pluto/diskless/ chroot <MD#> depmod cd /boot mkinitramfs -o initrd.img-`uname -r` `uname -r` exit
Finishing off
The system will do a couple of reboots and will at the end put you into AVWizard which does not appear;
Tip 1) if you press "3" in AVWizard (HDMI2) voila!! Tip 2) HDMI sound? In alsamixer unmuted input IEC958 by pressing "m" if selected.
