Re: Help! Boot from MMC
Do you mean you "Extend Virtual Memory"? I do not have option to enable swap file. How much memory did you extend?
Thank you, I want to try this. |

Re: Help! Boot from MMC
Ok new problem I get to: "mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 /opt" and it says invalid argument ... now what?
I am getting to the point where each time I try its a different errors ... argh |
Re: Help! Boot from MMC
middguy,
did you first create the /opt directory? mkdir /opt/ before the mount? I had to do this I think, although keep in mind that I have not gotten this to work yet either, although I can do the mount of mmcblk0p2 to /opt/. Just can't complete the complete cloning (tar cf - -C /floppy etc...) |

but at least this time it worked after trying again. and now its copying all the files. cross my fingers that this time it actually works (4/5th time trying) |
Re: Help! Boot from MMC
middguy,
I have also tried 4 or 5 times with no luck yet. Please tell me if you complete this time, and what the trick was. I am at wits end. Am getting ready to start from the beginning once again. How large is your MMC card, and what sizes the partitions. Thanks |
Re: Help! Boot from MMC
yay... got it working. trick was to combine both online directions (neither is complete)
http://maemo.org/community/wiki/HowT..._From_MMC_card and http://examplified.net/guide/Nokia_7...ting_from_MMC/ I also installed VNC view and stuff (http://mike.saunby.googlepages.com/x11vncfornokia7702) and used that to do most of the typing. also had to go back to step 1 (reflash) and make sure the first step went right (the download didnt work so had to do the fix that the program suggested) |
Re: Help! Boot from MMC
middguy,
congrats on your success. I have not been as lucky. did you do anything other than what is in the two ets of instructions? did you turn on red pill mode? did you turn on the virtual memory on the mmc (from control panel->memory)? what were your 2 partition sizes? I have tried the example 15000 as well as 30000, since i have a 2 GB card. thanks for any additional information you can provide. |
