Re: [Announce] NEW Backupmenu-multiboot and new multiboot 0.2.11 ( update )
 

Has anybody noticed multiboot taking numerous reboots before successfully booting the selected kernel?

I have to halt and reboot my device 6-9 times before it will boot the kernel. Any reason for this?

Re: [Announce] NEW Backupmenu-multiboot and new multiboot 0.2.11 ( update )
 

Yep. Happens to me once in a while.
I select a kernel and multiboot either boots to the previous kernel or even powers down.
On the next boot, I click the selected number key twice or more (about once per second) until I see the white dots.

Usually unsuccessful boots are tied to instability. Does it go fine if battery pulled for 5-10 seconds?

I noticed 0 problems with new multiboot-backupmenu. Always boot just like before update... Strange.

Do you plan to update multiboot-backupmenu with the last version of BackupMenu? It seems to bring significant improvements, such as terminal.

Thanks in advance for you answer.

I probed mido.fayad about it, and he promised to have a look @ this ASAHGST (As Soon As He Got Spare Time :D )

In the meantime you can manually install it with this step by step guide:

1. Download and install multiboot 0.2.11 and backupmenu-multiboot 1.1
2. Download latest backupmenu package and copy it to MyDocs
3. Open an xterm and become root user with
   sudo gainroot
4. Remove backupmenu's old files with
   rm /usr/share/backupmenu/*
5. Go to filesystem's root with
   cd /
6. Extract backupmenu's new files with
   dpkg-deb --fsys-tarfile /home/user/MyDocs/backupmenu_1.1-1_all.deb | tar xv ./usr/share/backupmenu/
7. Add execution permissions with
   chmod +x /usr/share/backupmenu/*
   chmod +x /usr/share/backupmenu/.functions.sh.swp
8. Add Tar command with
   cp /opt/maemo/usr/bin/gnu/tar /usr/share/backupmenu/

You have to install Power Kernel Boot Image package which will add multiboot support for Power Kernel

Furthermore there was no need to reflash, simply choose option 0 (it is an hidden option) in boot menu and the phone will boot with Stock Kernel PR 1.3
