Re: Maemo 5 | Nitdroid | MeeGo | Ubuntu 9.10 Karmic
 
So i made that
sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk1 <<EOF
,2000,L
,2000,L
,2000,L
,,C
EOF

'cause Nitdroid MeeGo and ubuntu needs and ext3 partition.

The first step OK, today i'll download all images of OS's and tomorrow will try to install them on each one partition.

Thanks for all!
Have a nice day ^_^

You have to remember that the fat partition is now p4 though. If you follow the NITDroid guide that will tell you to install NITDroid on p2. You are probably best off sticking with this as the item file points to that partition.

Just need to use
Quote:

mke2fs -L NITDroid -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p4
, not
Quote:

mke2fs -L NITDroid -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2
like in manual,yep?)



aaaand
use
Quote:

cd /etc/multiboot.d
cat > NITdroid-2.6.28.NIT.05.item << EOF
ITEM_NAME="NITdroid on MMCp2 - 2.6.28.NIT.05"
ITEM_KERNEL=2.6.28.NIT.05
ITEM_MODULES=ext3 fat vfat
ITEM_DEVICE=\${EXT_CARD}p1
ITEM_FSTYPE=ext3
ITEM_FSOPTIONS=rw,noatime,errors=remount-ro,commit=3
EOF
not ITEM_DEVICE=\${EXT_CARD}p2

Because when i made an file systemsi used
mke2fs -L NITDroid -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p1
mke2fs -L MeeGo -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p2
mke2fs -L Ubuntu -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p3
mkdosfs /dev/mmcblk1p4

Why i cant mke2fs -C Maemo -j -m0 /dev/mmcblk1p4 ? I'll get an error?

Ubuntu 9.10 development is currently stalled (for the community - working on it here) till I get a faster network connection, don't try to install it.

There's no a easy way to boot in various OS's. Multiboot needs special kernel that recognise it and show the menu.

There is a kernel for Maemo and for NITDroid. But the kernel that MeeGo is using not work. You can boot to MeeGo with Multiboot, but can't back to other OS (Multiboot is no more showed).

I have MeeGo and NITDroid in my memory card, but after booting in MeeGo, I need to use Flasher to come back to Maemo or NITDroid.

Maybe there is a way to MeeGo itself reflashes the device....but it's beyond my knowledge.

As i know, we can start an flasher from maemo distr, yep?
but why we can't use some "script" in bootmenu like "cmd" in windows \ unix?
