Making a custom 2.6 kernel for the TS-7260

curl -O ftp://ftp.embeddedarm.com/ts-arm-sbc/ts-7200-linux/sources/tskernel-2.6.21-ts-src.tar.gz
tar -zxvf tskernel-2.6.21-ts-src.tar.gz
cd linux-2.6.21-ts
edit the Makefile:

  • ARCH ?= arm
  • CROSS_COMPILE ?= /usr/local/arm-linux-gnu/bin/arm-linux-gnu-
 make ts72xx_defconfig

If you want, you can edit the default options:

 make menuconfig

then make the kernel 

make
make zImag 
make modules

The final product is found in "arch/arm/boot" and is called "zImage". You can now copy all the modules to TARGET_DIR with: 

make modules_install INSTALL_MOD_PATH=TARGETDIR
