<div><br></div>Sertac,<br><br>Also, if u know ur chip SoC name, u can find
whether open source linux kernel may have already support inbuilt in it. u can
google around it, before deciding to port.<br><br>

<div><br></div>Sertac,<br><br>Basically u need to have Celestial SoC
& drivers related patch.<br>Then, u can download desired kernel or
latest 3.3.x.<br><br>Apply and do the forward porting. It won't be
straight forward, u need to re-write a bit.<br>U can always refer any
other celectial SoC family in latest kernel source or other ARM9
family.<br><br>see -> arch/arm/<br><br>

<div><font face="Arial">Dear All;</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">I have a digital satellite receiver (named
Chipbox), which uses linux kernel 2.6.12.5.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">Main chipset name is Celestial CSM1203 ( It is
ARM926EJ-S core).</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">The original kernel source (and all other
sources) can be downloaded here: <a href="http://www.merihvideo.com.tr/chipbox-source.php" target="_blank">http://www.merihvideo.com.tr/chipbox-source.php</a></font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">I would like to add some functionality (Such as
CIFS, USB WIFI...) to my STB. In order to do that, I need to cross
compile new kernel.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">However, the chipset provider ( Celestial) does
not provide a new kernel to do this. They just compiled 2.6.12.5 for
about 5-6 years ago, and they didn't do a new kernel from that
time.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">So, I need your helps:</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">1) Celestial has done a lot of modifications on
the original 2.6.12.5 source ( drivers, headers, definitions...) All
these changes can be seen by using MELD tool.</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">2) In order to have a new kernel ( Such as
2.6.35.13) which can be running on my chipbox, what are the steps
should be done one by one?</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
<div><font face="Arial">Can you please explain for a newbie
please?</font></div>
<div><font face="Arial"></font> </div>
