I have a general question. How do we normally verify linux-next tree?
The same exact way you "verify" any other Linux kernel, for whatever definition of "verify" you plan to use.
1) For Oracle virtual box 5.1.26 with ubuntu-32 bit, the linux-next kernel is not booting.
Does an Ubuntu kernel boot correctly under VirtualBox? If not, fix that issue first. Also, "is not booting" isn't detailed enough for anybody to make even a guess as to what's wrong.
Also, note that 5.1.28 is out.
Ok, I just updated to 5.1.28. And my Ubuntu version is already 16.04. Let me try again if it works. Thanks all for your reply. BTW, I am more interested in my another query about QEMU arm. This will be much quicker and easy for me. But the problem is I wanted to use multiple ssh shell on qemu. Also I needed a pre-built rootfs image for qemu-arm, cortex-a9 versatilepb machine. It should have networking and ssh built-in so that I can connect to it using PUTTY client. Note that I could able to build my own minimal busybox and boot qemu using linux-next (non graphical mode). But I could able to get only one shell. I need to test some client/server problem, so I need multiple shell. I am not able to configure net/ssh on this qemu system. So, I have 2 things to ask: 1) If you have pointers on how to setup ssh/net connection on QEMU with busybox, do let me know. 2) Let, please point me to a pre-built qemu-arm busy box image with full features. Thanks, Pintu
