Hi, I downloaded IPL_ixp400NpeLibrary-2_3.zip from Intel to build a kernel for my Gateworks GW2348-2-CF (the one Netgate sells). But when I attempt to boot the kernel it didn't find the image identifier requested in if_npe (0x01000200) and crashes (similar for npe1 also). I looked through IxNpeMicrocode.c, but the closest I found was 0x01000201. So I hacked ixp425_npevar.h thusly: Index: ixp425_npevar.h =================================================================== RCS file: /home/ncvs/src/sys/arm/xscale/ixp425/ixp425_npevar.h,v retrieving revision 1.1 diff -u -r1.1 ixp425_npevar.h --- ixp425_npevar.h 19 Nov 2006 23:55:23 -0000 1.1 +++ ixp425_npevar.h 14 Feb 2007 01:27:37 -0000 @@ -76,8 +76,8 @@ #define NPEFW_B_DMA 0x01020100 /* DMA only */ /* XXX ... more not include */ -#define IXP425_NPE_B_IMAGEID 0x01000200 -#define IXP425_NPE_C_IMAGEID 0x02000200 +#define IXP425_NPE_B_IMAGEID 0x01000201 +#define IXP425_NPE_C_IMAGEID 0x02000201 struct ixpnpe_softc; struct ixpnpe_softc *ixpnpe_attach(device_t); So it now boots and I'm not seeing any problems (with npe0 at least) and it nfs mounts a root fs. Is there any reason why I shouldn't do this, or can someone point me at the correct file to download from Intel that has the expected image in it? thanks, dave chelp
