Hi,
I have built succefully L4linux. I have used the snapshot version. So now I want to run it, but I don't have tftboot directory in l4linux tree. I can't follow the example because I don't have many modules like names l4io
a vmlinuz file is in l4linux tree.
what are the steps to boot on L4linux from harddrive ?

Admittedly the website documentation is not up to date for L4Re. Need to fix that.

First, try the setup in QEmu (or similar). This is much more convenient than rebooting the host system, esp. if you do not have a separate test-machine and a serial link. The snapshot contains a L4Linux-setup, although for ARM. The config script works for both architecture, just change to modules accordingly in the modules.list file. For the io-config file, just remove it for the beginning. Then, go the l4re build directory and do "make image E=l4linux". So will generate you an ELF image in the images directory which you can boot with "qemu -kernel bootstrap.elf -m 256 -serial stdio" and later on also with e.g. GRUB.

hi adam thanks for the reply.. i resolved the issue... i had missed a option in menuconfig. Now after the build , i have a bootstrap_L4Linux_ARM.elf file.Can i run this on the realview board using the boot monitor command run or is there anything else which needs to be done ?
thanks rahul

Yes, you can run the image using the boot monitor.
