Hi,
I tried to build the newest kernel 3.4.90+, and got this error when booting the A20:
(Seems to be an error related to the cedar module...).
So I reverted back to 3.4.79+ which is working well.

Have you reported it to wherever you got that kernel? (Where did you?)

Yes this issue was reported back to the linux-sunxi on the google groups.
The kernel was cloned from the sunxi git hub.
Fab
OK, at least now they can put it on the To Do list. It's optimistic to try bleeding edge...
John
Thanks for sharing
Is there any bug to track ?
Is there any commit to revert temporally
I am also looking for static .config file for sun7i-a20-olinuxino-micro
(builtin features no modules) ...
will share it if needed
Regards
You could try git bisect if keen to find what happened.

Hello,
with git clone https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi.git I took the 3.4.90+ kernel, that's don't boot (as reported by Fab).
But I don't understand how to obtain the "old" 3.4.79+ version (I have it on my home PC), but not at workplace...
In http://linux-sunxi.org/Linux_Kernel is not reported
using
git clone -b sunxi-3.4.79 --depth 1 https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi.git
give
Cloning into 'linux-sunxi'...
warning: Could not find remote branch sunxi-3.4.79 to clone.
fatal: Remote branch sunxi-3.4.79 not found in upstream origin
Unexpected end of command stream
Any idea?
Thanks in advance
Best regards
Sorry, my bad
kernel 3.4.90+ boots
I used USBcom debug and I'm able to connect with the board.
I made some compilation error :(
Nevertheless, is there a way to obtain older kernel version?
Thanks and sorry again
Quite a few pre-built are on Olimex site / this wiki / linked from them.
You can download and build any version over the last many years if you wish, too.
John
Thanks for your reply John.
I know I can download a20 image from Olimex a20 wiki, but I need the kernel sources.
Could you please provide a link?
I'm searching on github but without success.
Thanks
Olimex provide them and you can go on linux-sunxi wiki

You need to get a specific revision in the github. All minor versions are in the same branch 3.4
For a list see here:
https://github.com/linux-sunxi/linux-sunxi/releases
Thank you very much jlucius!
That's exactly what I need!
