Thanks in advance.
With on the Cyclone 5 dev kit in GSRD 13.1 I used:# ] cd yocto# ] source ~/yocto/altera-init ~/yocto/build_tag# ] "bitbake -c menuconfig -f virtual/kernel modified what I needed ...# ] bitbake virtual/kernel So, I've moved to GSRD 14.1 and I've built the default kernel as per the instruction on: http://www.rocketboards.org/foswiki/documentation/gsrd141compilinglinux $ cd ~ $ git clone http://git.rocketboards.org/linux-socfpga.git $ cd linux-socfpga $ git checkout -b test_branch ACDS14.1_REL_GSRD_PR $ export CROSS_COMPILE=~/gcc-linaro-arm-linux-gnueabihf-4.8-2013.12_linux/bin/arm-linux-gnueabihf- $ make ARCH=arm socfpga_defconfig $ make ARCH=arm zImage I tried that image on the SDcard and it worked. I need to add USB support for Pata (compact flash) Off of the USB to go port. So, I tried this: $ cd ~/linux-socfpga $ make ARCH=arm menuconfig I add the PATA driver -- save it. BUT when I make it doesn't like the configuration file and it starts asking me all the configuration questions. How do I modify the kernel configuration and recompile the kernel?
