Parallella Community

The e-hw-rev and parallella-thermald failures seem to be occurring because of missing '/dev/epiphany' device file. Is this not created because 'udev' does not have the drivers for Epiphany built in, or is it because the Epiphany hardware was not detected by the driver? Since I have used the ready kernel from Parallella's site I am assuming that the driver is built into the kernel.

What am I still missing?

Following the instructions posted at I was able to build a kernel, and it is bootable. The 'parallella-thermald' and 'e-hw-rev' both function as expected.

The kernel is HDMI console, but I believe it's a minor issue to get the serial console to work.

Posts by contributors have been valuable to make this quick, thanks! Although, even this much time could be saved should the release notes or equivalent for changes are updated appropriately.

Follow on for enabling the serial console:

The kernel generated earlier has support for serial console, just that the device tree file that provides the kernel boot paraneters line parameters did not include "console=ttyPS0,115200". I used the device compiler and generated the dtb file, and now have the serial console functional.
