[Planetlab-devel] bootcd_v3 for wireless/mesh myplc

[Marc E. Fiuczynski]

Hi Winson,

The attached script has replaces the bootcd kernel with a custom kernel.  It
assumes that you have built the kernel using Mark Huang's build module.

cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at cvs.planet-lab.org:/cvs co build
cvs -d :pserver:anonymous at cvs.planet-lab.org:/cvs co bootmanager
cd build

cp kupdate.sh . # this is the attached file
# build a custom PL kernel as an RPM
# I believe I've sent you instructions for this a while back

sudo ./kupdate.sh RPMS/i686/kernel-xxxxx.rpm
# where xxxxx is the specific kernel that you want to install

sudo service plc start bootcd
# you should now have a bootcd with your custom kernel.
# If you've built special device driver modules, etc., they
# will be part of the RPM and so will show up on the bootcd
# already.

Hope this help.

Cheers,
Marc
