AW: Debian 9 (armel) - doesnt start
Hello!
Thanks for all your answers! I managed to get Debian working with Kernel
4.8.7. Dont know exactly whats wrong with 4.9. I try to identify the problem
if i get the system up and running with 4.8.7...
However, there is another strange problem. apt doesnt work ...
Every time I try to run "apt update" or any installation with "apt install
xyz" Debian freezes.
First i thought it might be the BX instruction patch. But this strange
behaviour also occures with Kernel 3.16.81 and Debian 5 (which supports
ARMv4l - that means no BX emulation at all)
The system freezes, but it accepts input from the keyboard and displays the
typed characters. Also Kernel messages, like remove or insert of a PCMCIA
card, are shown. But nothing else works anymore. Nothing in the logs after
restart.
Maybe someone has a hint or can tell me where to start debugging...
Regards
Stefan Lehner

Betreff: Debian 9 (armel) - doesnt start
Hi!
I have a very unusal setup: a old Handheld PC with a StrongARM CPU on which
i like to get Debian 9 running.
Short summary of my Kernel:
4.9.210 with BX emulation patch (to get things going on the old ARMv4)
CONFIG_AEABI=y
CONFIG_OABI_COMPAT=y
I can send a the full .config i fit necessary.
The armel rootfs is copied onto a CF card with debootstrap Then I generated
the devices and set some things linke hostname, locale .
$ debootstrap --arch armel --foreign stretch /mnt/jornada
http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian
$ cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static /mnt/jornada/usr/bin
$ LANG=C.UTF-8 chroot /mnt/jornada qemu-arm-static /bin/bash
$ /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage
$ apt install makedev
$ mount none /proc -t proc
$ cd /dev
$ MAKEDEV generic
And here is the problem: the kernel boots up fine, mounts the rootfs. After
a while it displays crng init done and thats it. Nothing more .
Can somebody help me?
Here is the console output:
