Hi,
I am trying to create boot images for vexpress platform following instructions mentioned here https://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/MilestoneBuilds.
Daily Build & HwPack Images used:
* http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/headless/alpha-1/linaro-nat ty-headless-tar-20101202-1.tar.gz
* http://releases.linaro.org/platform/linaro-n/hwpacks/alpha-1/vexpress/20 101201/1/images/hwpack/hwpack_linaro-vexpress_20101201-1_armel_supported .tar.gz
I am getting errors while installing images on SD card when I tried following command:
sudo linaro-media-create --rootfs ext3 --mmc /dev/sdb --dev vexpress --binary linaro-natty-alip-tar-20101202-1.tar.gz --hwpack hwpack_linaro-vexpress_20101201-1_armel_supported.tar.gz
.
.
Populating Boot Partition
Installing Boot Loader
tar: binary/usr/lib/u-boot/ca9x4_ct_vxp/u-boot.bin: Not found in archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
I am not sure whether I am using right build images, can anyone point me to the working build images for vexpress platform.
Thanks
Praveen

I was able to successfully create an image (although I can't boot it as I don't have a vexpress board) using the two files above.

Oh, here you're using the alip tarball instead of the headless one that you listed above. I'm downloading it now and will try to create an image using the same command as you did.
tar: binary/usr/lib/u-boot/ca9x4_ct_vxp/u-boot.bin: Not found in archive
tar: Exiting with failure status due to previous errors
Is there any chance there were other errors higher up? It'd be nice if you could pastebin them.

The tarballs you used should've worked, I think.
Hi Guilherme,
With headless build image I am still getting same errors as before with missing u-boot.bin. Detailed command log is here-->http://pastebin.com/ygRQRGe2

I don't see anything suspicious there, and I was able to create an image using the alip tarball. However, I'm using the latest linaro-media-create from lp:linaro-image-tools. Can you give that a try? https://wiki.linaro.org/Releases/MilestoneBuilds has the instructions

Hi Praveen,
I can recreate the same failure you are seeing. Something is broken in the linaro-media-create that is being installed with:
sudo apt-get install linaro-image-tools ...
The first thing I see is the hwpack isn't installing correctly and so probably the rootfs isn't installing either.
Using an older branch of linaro-media-create I was able to create a bootable system:
bzr branch lp:linaro-image-tools -r 169
Also, the vexpress is usually installed to 2 devices. The boot system to the SD card and rootfs on a USB device. The rootfs on an SD card is really slow.

Please enable the maverick-proposed repository (System->Administration->Synaptic Package Manager, Settings->Repositories, Updates, Pre-released updates) and upgrade to the linaro-image-tools package present in that repository. I wouldn't advise users to track maverick-proposed for all packages installed on their system, but the linaro-image-tools that shipped with Ubuntu 10.10 is known broken (because we were still working on it at the time 10.10 went out the door) and we need to get independent feedback (i.e., from someone other than me who uploaded it) to get the new version pushed into maverick as an Ubuntu Stable Release Update.
So please test linaro-image-tools 0.3 and if it checks out, please add your results to https://bugs.launchpad.net/linaro-image-tools/+bug/643601.
Thanks,
Hi Matt, After using 'linaro-media-create' from older branch (bzr branch lp:linaro-image-tools -r 169) I was able to create boot images.
Thanks for your help.
