05:27.12tuxd3vyeti, $750.00 the 16 core arm miniitx.. excluding Ram memory
05:28.02tuxd3vI can  blame you...I was looking and still thinking in going with this:
05:29.07tuxd3vhttps://www.powerpc-notebook.org/campaigns/donation-campaign-for-pcb-design-of-the-powerpc-notebook-motherboard/
05:29.18tuxd3vit will be around 1500€
05:29.36tuxd3vbut will be Cern Open Hardware based
05:29.43tuxd3vand open specs
05:29.48tuxd3vits a laptop
05:30.26tuxd3v<PROTECTED>
05:30.28tuxd3v:)
05:31.40mrpfilsersorry tuxd3v someone called me away
05:32.17tuxd3v<PROTECTED>
05:32.37mrpfilsersorry tuxd3v someone distracted me
05:32.42mrpfilserfile vmlinuz-5.3.0-3-arm64
05:32.43mrpfilservmlinuz-5.3.0-3-arm64: MS-DOS executable
05:32.59mrpfilserthat's from devuan repo iirc
05:33.26mrpfilserthe others also say MS-DOS executeable
05:33.57tuxd3vyou compiled that kernel ?
05:34.07mrpfilseri did not
05:34.55mrpfilserthese .dtb files maybe they are needed for nvidia
05:37.12tuxd3vthe dtb files are descriptions of the devicetree
05:37.28tuxd3vyes they are needed for botting the kernel
05:37.36tuxd3vand you need one by kernel
05:37.38mrpfilserwhy doesnt i have them for other kernels
05:37.46mrpfilserwhat can i get them with
05:37.55tuxd3vyour vmlinuz-5.3.0-3-arm64, should also I beliebe provide one :)
05:38.14mrpfilseris it hidden in there?
05:38.19mrpfilserit has no .dtb files
05:38.21tuxd3vno
05:38.39tuxd3vif you compile the kernel yourself, you have the option to generate them
05:38.55mrpfilserah this is helpful.  in make menuconfig somewhere eys?
05:39.02tuxd3vwhen you get it from somewere they should be there in some format
05:39.56mrpfilserthere are many dtbs in /usr/lib/linux-image-5.3.0-3-arm64  and /usr/lib/linux-image-4.19.0-6-arm64
05:40.12tuxd3vyou can do a:
05:40.19mrpfilserbut none for tegra jetson at all
05:40.22tuxd3v'zcat /proc/config.gz >> .config'
05:40.34tuxd3vand then copy that file to the linux kernel
05:40.44tuxd3vsource code root directory
05:40.52tuxd3vthen you need to compile it..
05:41.24mrpfilserty
05:42.28tuxd3vto compile it you need to follow some rules
05:42.41tuxd3vI believe that nvidea has them in the documentation
05:42.42mrpfilserbut i need to change the config
05:42.46mrpfilserto add scsi cdrom support
05:42.50tuxd3vand it will build everything for you..
05:43.09tuxd3vok
05:43.42mrpfilseri edit config directly, menuconfig is a pita
05:43.46tuxd3vyou can go with menuconfig
05:44.01tuxd3vthen go to device drivers
05:44.09tuxd3vindeed its a pita
05:44.11tuxd3v:)
05:44.49tuxd3vand I don't recall now were exatcly that options are but they are in 'device drivers' for sure
05:44.55mrpfilseryou think this missing .dtb is why boot did not give me other kernel as an option?
05:45.00mrpfilseri have it written down somewhere
05:45.10tuxd3vyes you can edit manually if you know ere they are ;)
05:45.18tuxd3vI do that very often..
05:46.22mrpfilserthank you for the help tuxd3v
05:46.45tuxd3vmrpfilser, no problem, any time :)
05:48.09mrpfilserotherwise the extlinux.conf was sane?
05:48.24tuxd3vyes extlinux seems nice
05:48.27tuxd3v;)
05:48.31tuxd3vgood job!
05:49.23mrpfilserthere is also some tweak needed to read seagate drives over usb-sata adapter
05:49.31mrpfilserbecause apparently their firmware is broken
05:49.51tuxd3vwell yes :)
05:50.03tuxd3vseagate OpenSeaChest
05:50.10tuxd3vuses undernet
05:50.13tuxd3vscsi
05:50.16tuxd3vprotocol
05:50.32tuxd3vand they don't pass on the usb-sata adapator
05:50.39tuxd3vOr at least some don't
05:50.43mrpfilseryea
05:50.55mrpfilseri read there's a boot option or module blacklist workaround
