Still no working softpoweroff. The mce.ini looks as tasty as ever, but actual functionality is still zero. :(

Yes, I did.

And Bundyo, elaborate, please? :o

Well, if you've got one good bootable system, boot to that. Mount the other filesystem somewhere convenient, e.g. /mnt/otherroot.
Then chroot /mnt/otherroot gets you into it, and you can go about figuring why it died, and how to resurrect it.

Regarding the device name and filesystem type, I'm not horribly certain; I haven't gotten to mmc booting yet.

I broke my card install, so i booted from internal flash.

Then you need to run an XTerm (i'm using ssh at least to the point to upgrade the wifi :) and as root to bind some dirs and chroot:

Code:

mount --bind /dev /media/mmc2/dev
mount --bind /sys /media/mmc2/sys
mount --bind /proc /media/mmc2/proc
mount --bind /tmp /media/mmc2/tmp

chroot /media/mmc2

Then you're effectively in a booted from the other place tablet :) I discovered that i have 400 unconfigured packages, so i ran the command from the blog again (but the same will happen with apt-get -f install i guess).

Some things you should consider - the preinst scripts assume that the previous ones stopped the respective daemons, so if mce, alarmd and such fail to install - stop them first and repeat.
At this time i realised modest has two package versions downloaded here - 17 and 19... You need 17 if you don't want dependency hell. :)

EDIT: Yeah, you want to mount the fs first :)

Mara, do you know if, supposing an outsider had somehow gotten ahold of a Diablo install, whoever receives Nitro dumps would appreciate more dumps, or would they rather have those only from Nokia people?

I really do not know, but I'd assume they like to know if you have a repeatable crash in some certain user case... Nokia internal testers are not likely to try all the possible SW combinations, or try push the envelope the way us ITt users do... So I'd say go ahead if you have a crash that seem repeatable.

I'm too more or less outsider for the Nokia tablets HW/SW development team, but I did have some direct discussion with them in the past concerning the memory card corruption bug... I'm sure they did find my input valuable.

While we are at this Diablo thing... I have noticed one new bug that I didn't see in Chinook:

The browser, the full screen button does not seem to work until the web page has loaded (or almost loaded?) full. In Chinook browser always responded to the button press immediately, but not so in Diablo.

Have you seen that?

Okay, my efforts were a success - i have a bootable Diablo from a SD card :)

Things you better remove before doing the upgrade:
* Modest
* Powerlaunch
* MicroB Spellchecker

EDIT: There's a software update notifier status bar applet available :)
