From: "Nicholas A. Bellinger" To: Core-iSCSI Cc: Open iSCSI , iet-dev , maemo-dev , LKML Content-Type: text/plain Date: Sat, 01 Apr 2006 19:22:22 -0800 Message-Id: <1143948142.26951.199.camel@haakon> Mime-Version: 1.0 X-Mailer: Evolution 2.0.4 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit Sender: linux-kernel-owner@vger.kernel.org X-Mailing-List: linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org Greetings all, A Maemo formatted .deb binary for Core-iSCSI/Nokia770 has been released on the wiki-homepage at linux-iscsi.org: http://www.linux-iscsi.org/index.php/Core-iSCSI/Nokia_770 The files can be located directly at: http://www.linux-iscsi.org/files/core-iscsi-maemo/core-iscsi-maemo-v10_arm.deb http://www.linux-iscsi.org/files/core-iscsi-maemo/README The only two requirements that currently exist (as listed in the README) are 1) bash, and 2) obtaining superuser privledges on the device to be able to load kernel modules, mount iSCSI LUNs, etc. The only two limitiations that currently exist are 1) Authentication is not supported in this release and 2) the 2.6.12.3-omap1 for the 770 does NOT ship with CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y, and hence we are only able to detect LUN 0 for each iSCSI Target Node. Unfortuately scsi_mod is complied directly the 2.6.12.3-omap1 kernel and the only method to get around this is recompiling the kernel. I would like to see scsi_mod built as a module in future kernel releases for the Nokia 770, and preferably with CONFIG_SCSI_MULTI_LUN=y enabled. Also, now that the Core-iSCSI/Nokia770 project has made the first binary release, its now time to start discussion what the plans are for the iSCSI UI on the Nokia770. I will be writing down some ideas for this on the wiki homepage, and would be interested in getting some feedback on some of the possibilies for making iSCSI easy to use on small devices. Have fun! -- Nicholas A. Bellinger
