I've been setting up a local LAVA lab on my home network. I've used the lava-deployment-tool and lava-master-image-scripts to get my Beagle hooked up.
I'm really close to having everything work. However, when I submit a job I hit a problem with the soft-reboot logic not being able to instruct u-boot to use the test image.
I'm flashing a 12.01 pre-built nano image, but I don't think that matters. I think the real issue might be something with a newer uboot being used by the linaro-master-image-script and the device.conf for beagle not having the right stuff.
Has anyone else run into this or have suggestions? I tried briefly updating the .conf file for beagle, but it didn't seem to stick. It almost looked like we were sending the commands before u-boot was ready, but that may just be how the output is displayed.

That master has not been validated. It fact I'm surprised you managed to boot it at all because of thumb kernel bugs that generally crash the system shortly after booting. Out of curiosity, which beagle did you use C4 or XM?
We should revert the beagle master hwpack to something older that works well with real hardware and our dispatcher code.
Thanks ZK

So for now, does anyone have a master image I can just download for beagle, or do I really need to create this by hand still?

Sorry - sent before I meant to. I meant to ask if there was beagle hwpack I should use instead? It looks like I can just update the boards.d/beagle.conf file in the tool to use a better hwpack.

Right, we should find the right hwpack and update boards.d

FYI - I tried with the 11.11 release and see the same thing. It looks like u-boot is never getting into the shell, so the commands we send it get lost. I'll dig in more when I get some time.
Here's some output with some debug messages I added:

Can you get into the shell if you run it manually (without the dispatcher?) I recall that Dave had issues with XM bootloader just not giving him enough time (when scripted).

Its weird. I have things working now, but let me explain.
It seemed like uboot wasn't receiving the key stroke to interrupt the autostart. Just to be more certain a changed the code to interrupt uboot to send the '#' rather than just an EOL. Given how long it was taking to run it end-to-end, I also wrote a simple wrapper to the LavaMasterClient that I could run manually from a python shell.
Once I did that everything started working. It also started working end-to-end. I now need to back out my change and see if works in my wrapper and then see if its started magically working end-to-end.

The page suggests that those combination are working: omap3_20111121-0/o-developer-20111121-0 omap3_20120302-1/o-developer-20120302-0
Unfortunately, they're snapshots images and not releases. Thus, they're pruned monthly. You can try 11.11 release or 12.03 releases.
Master images should be reproducible, please use release images only.

Right, I think that we'll have a clean situation when dave re-cycles all current master images in favor of the ones built with our scripts.
