I'm preparing an article for a Linux magazine in Italy, I'm really interested to test the floating point benckmark with the iMX floating point hardware.

How to do that?

Thanks

Hello,

I quick guide...
1. Get an SD card, and make a couple partitions.
2. Get one partition with kernel image
3. Get rootfs on the other partition:
3.1. armhf
Code:
$ sudo debootstrap --foreign --arch=armhf unstable test-armhf http://emdebian.org/ports/grip
$ sudo cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static test-armhf/usr/bin/
$ sudo chroot test-armhf/ /debootstrap/debootstrap --second-stage
If debootstrap way fails, you can also try to use multistrap from Debian (I think it is also in Ubuntu)
Code:
$ multistrap -f armhf.conf
$ sudo cp /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static test-armhf/usr/bin/
$ sudo chroot armhf-rootfs/ dpkg --configure -a
where armhf.conf can be:

For emdebian.org + debian-ports.org,
Code:
# Example multistrap configuration file for a sid build chroot
# Need to use cascading to select the toolchain for a cross arch.

[General]
arch=armhf
directory=armhf-emdebian
# same as --tidy-up option if set to true
cleanup=true
# same as --no-auth option if set to true
# keyring packages listed in each debootstrap will
# still be installed.
noauth=true
# extract all downloaded archives (default is true)
unpack=true
# the order of sections is not important.
# the debootstrap option determines which repository
# is used to calculate the list of Priority: required packages.
debootstrap=Emdebian Ports-unreleased Ports-unstable
aptsources=Emdebian

[Emdebian]
packages=apt dpkg-dev
source=http://emdebian.org/ports/grip
keyring=emdebian-archive-keyring
components=main dev doc java
suite=unstable
omitdebsrc=true

[Ports-unreleased]
packages=
source=http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian
keyring=debian-ports-archive-keyring
suite=unreleased
omitdebsrc=true

[Ports-unstable]
packages=
source=http://ftp.debian-ports.org/debian
keyring=debian-ports-archive-keyring
suite=unstable
omitdebsrc=true
Then you can boot the machine and run any test. I would be very happy to know the results.

Hi,
Thanks for the info.
Could you give me some others details...
I have understood:
Code:
$ sudo debootstrap --foreign --arch=armhf unstable test-armhf http://emdebian.org/ports/grip
setup in the directory test-armhf an unstable debian with arch armhf.
After is to copy the file /usr/bin/qemu-arm-static on the dir usr/bin inside the test-armhf directory (where we have setup the debian unstable files). But this is need if we have an non arm arch, in our case the Efika MX is an arm arch, so is not needed...

So why i need and SD card with two partitions? for bootstrap from SD? The process of the chroot is only to verify that on the sd is installed correctly debian?

Thanks

Roberto
