Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 

Hey guy's just a question! If i want to reinstall ubiboot and sailfish again and enter in open mode with back-to-back procedure (last time i did not) can i go straight with flashing firmware + emmc or do i have to remove the Alt_OS partition before with the autopartition.sh script as in the nemo wiki? Thanks :)

As mentioned a few times in the thread (but easy to miss ;)), just give the
parameter with flashing command. This will restore original partition layout.

It's a 110 pages thread, have mercy :D
So it's ok if the command looks like:

One more thing, with back-to-back flashing there's no way to remove the scary warranty message right?

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 

Yep.

And there is (or should be as never tested by me :) nor confirmed).
Flash closed, boot, enable developer mode, remove warning message, flash closed rootfs, (do NOT boot), flash open mode kernel, boot.

I thought that flashing the firmware also restores the scary warranty message!! It would be nice if this works :)

It does if you don't boot after ex.
sudo flasher -F <yourmainfirmware.bin> -f

but immediately run ex.
sudo flasher -a <yourmainfirmware.bin> -k zImage_2.6.32.54-openmode_l2fix --flash-only=kernel -f -R

So, as I understand it, Firefox OS is basically set up as a second copy of Nitdroid. What would I need to do to get a third copy of Nitdroid booting? I've made a copy of my Nitdroid folder, and added entries in the "Ubuntu" section of ubiboot, but it just gives me a black screen.

@taixzo you need to edit preinit to load os from folder you have, call it preinit_nitdroid2 and add it to ubuntu entry in ubiboot config

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 

@taixzo
Do you really need 2 nitdroid entries selectable in menu? Then proceed as coderus said.

I also have two nitdroid instances, but have to do a command line one-liner on harmattan before booting up (as I normally know which instance I want).
I have two nitdroid folders named nit_ics and nit_jelly. Furthermore one link named nitdroid (the one mentioned in preinit_nitdroid) pointing to one of those two folders.
Easy peasy. :D

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 

I have the sailfish version (made only for dualbooting with sfos), and I want to uninstall it and change it so I can boot into Nitdroid or Firefox OS.

Help needed :)
