Alpha Prototype
The Alpha Prototype chumby runs a modified linux 2.4.20 kernel.
Compiling the Kernel
First, install the GCC Toolchain.
In order to build the chumby kernel, you can download the kernel source from chumby_kernel.tgz and build by doing the following:
# mkdir kernel # cd kernel # tar zxvf chumby_kernel.tgz # make menuconfig (then immediately exit and save the config) # make dep # make Image
If all goes well, you should end up with an uncompressed kernel image at arch/arm/boot/Image.
Ironforge
The "Ironforge" production chumby runs Linux 2.6.16 kernel.
First install the GNU Toolchain
In order to build the chumby kernel, you can download the kernel source from linux-2.6.16-chumby-1.0.tar.gz (link broken) and build by doing the following:
# mkdir kernel # cd kernel # tar zxvf linux-2.6.16-chumby-1.0.tar.gz # make menuconfig (then immediately exit and save the config) # make dep # make Image
If all goes well, you should end up with an uncompressed kernel image at arch/arm/boot/Image.
