Emdebian on Mini6410

Hello,

I've got a Mini6410 with 256MB Ram, 1GB Flash and a NEC 4,3" Touchscreen. I
want to put Emdebian on it but every attempt failed so far. I found this:
http://code.google.com/p/mini2440/wiki/Emdebian walkthough for the mini2440
board, but didn't succeed. Especially I don't know how I can compile the
linux kernel for my board. I read somewhere on the internet, that 2.6.37
brought support for the mini6410, but why did no one compile it, or at
least share the info on the net. 
I'd love to have a up2date debian distro with a recent kernel on my
mini6410 ... I hope that somebody can help me.

Greetings,
Daniel

To compile the Kernel you need the source of the Kernel, and the cross
tools.

I had to compile the kernel a month ago aprox. but I don't remember how I
did it, but you can search in Google how to compile the kernel using
mini2240.

You need to specify into the Makefile, the param ARCH will be arm
ARCH            := arm
And you need to have define the variable in your system that contain the
path of the cross tools, for example in my .bashrc I have this line

export PATH=$PATH:/home/mysuer/pathtocrosstools/arm-linux-gcc/bin/

Then in the directory where is the source of the kernel run
make menuconfig config_mini6410_n43


I have in my Mini6410 Debian but it is Debian Sid not EmDebian.

how did you install debian in the mini6410? are there any tutorials or
guide around?

thank you! ;)

Hi elmo,

Finally I managed to put Emdebian Squeeze on my Mini6410.  I'll put a
complete tutorial online for this, because till now, there's no real
resource telling how to accomplish that. If you can't wait, give me your
email adresse and I'll mail you the everything that you need ;-)

greetings,
Daniel

Deat Daniel, i would love to run Embedian on my mini6410 since i gotta run
mysql server on it. Can you please send me some HOW TO on my mail
jakub1166@gmail.com ? Thank you a lot

Hi folks,

I finished writing it. It's already online on google code and the text
should be finally formatted too. If you find typos, unformatted text or
some other kind of mistakes then please post a comment or an issue. I'd be
happy of feedback.

I'll now start to upload the files.
