[meta-xilinx] Newbie woes

[Stephen Mossom]

Hi Rich,

While I was digging around for a problem with Ethernet with my Zynq based board (ZC706) I discovered a post which stated that the zedboard PHY address changed (either from 7 to 0 or 0 to 7 if I remember correctly) between zedboard revisions

I didn’t bookmark the post and a quick search hasn’t yielded the desired result. You could try changing the phy address in your dts, rebuilding to see what happens.

I’m not sure about your other problems as I’ve stuck with Ubuntu and did not get the bitbake warnings you are seeing.

I'm running into a number of problems and questions, only some of which
have succumbed to days of reading and googling.

The following is for
poky-dora-10.0.1
MACHINE ?= "zedboard-zynq7"
and
bitbake core-image-minimal

A. Perhaps some of my problems are due to my distribution, so I need to admit
to that:
WARNING: Host distribution "openSUSE-project-13.1" has not been validated with this version of the build system; you may possibly experience unexpected failures. It is recommended that you use a tested distribution.

B. The following warning was an error until I found a hint at
https://lists.yoctoproject.org/pipermail/meta-xilinx/2013-October/000219.html

WARNING: No recipes available for:
  /home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-devtools/gdb/gdb-cross-canadian_7.6.2.bbappend
  /home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-devtools/qemu/qemu_1.7.0.bbappend

  /home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-devtools/gdb/gdb-cross_7.6.2.bbappend
  /home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-devtools/binutils/binutils-cross_2.24.bbappend
  /home/rw/meta-xilinx/recipes-connectivity/openssl/openssl_1.0.%.bbappend

It would be nice to fix this one way or another.

C. Where's the network?

root at zedboard-zynq7:/# cat /proc/net/dev
Inter-|   Receive                                                |  Transmit

root at zedboard-zynq7:/#

There are more, but I'll quit for now.
