iMX233-OLinuXino-NANO -> Timed out waiting for device dev-ttyAMA0.device.

[MoD]

Dear all,

I'm new to a iMX233-OLinuXino-NANO. At the weekend I tried to use an out of the box arch linux installation on this board. Arch linux started fine but when I tried to use the I2C Tools I got some errors.

So I decide to follow Christians blog and compile a kernel with patches for the I2C.
http://www.jann.cc/2012/08/23/building_a_kernel_3_x_for_the_olinuxino_from_sources.html

At this point I run in an issue. I don't understand what is wrong. All my screen output looks like the same as Chris shows. I'm also able to start my board. Only near to the login I get following error:

[ TIME ] Timed out waiting for device dev-ttyAMA0.device.
�[DEPEND] Dependency failed for Serial Getty on ttyAMA0.

and I m not able to login. In the kernel I can see that ttyAMA0 is available.

Here is kernel output:

I was not able to figure out what I do wrong. Hopefully someone can help and explain what I have to do to compile a kernel successful.

Thank you!

Best regards

Hey Team ... I'm having the same issue.

What I did is used the official image from the Arch Arm website... that boots fine and I can log in ... I than updated the SD card with one of the pre-compiled kernel images for the first partition ...after booting with the new image I see the output same as the one posted by MoD ... can't login, see new messages when I plug a usb device in... but dont' get the log in prompt.

Any ideas ?

Solution:

add "CONFIG_FHANDLE" to your kernel-configfile. It can be found using menuconfig the following way:

Code Select Expand


General setup  --->
[*] open by fhandle syscalls
