Re: Step by step guide: 48Mhz kernel and MMC boot clone
 

Hi bunanson,

I followed your guide with the sole exception of specifying an ext3 partition instead of ext2. However, when I tried to boot to MMC2 (mmcblk0p2), it tells me it failed.

Funny enough, I can mount it manually after the failed boot.

I checked the bootmenu.conf in my \mnt\initfs directory and penguin's script seems to have created it properly. Any clues on how to get this working??

Okay..... I tried booting from menu option 3 (mmc12) and it worked.... Huh.

Re: Step by step guide: 48Mhz kernel and MMC boot clone
 

Thank you. Everything went well until I started ./clone.sh, where I get:

./clone.sh: line 10: sfdisk: not found
./clone.sh: line 12: sfdisk: not found
expr: non-numeric argument
expr: syntax error
STARTING PARTITIONING NOW
/root/install-tools/part.sh: line 2: sfdisk: not found
./clone.sh: line 165: sfdisk: not found
./clone.sh: line 170: sfdisk: not found
STARTING FILESYSTEM CLONE - MAY TAKE A FEW MINUTES - PLEASE WAIT
mount: mounting /dev/mmcblk0p2 on /dsk2 failed

ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR

SD CARD NOT ABLE TO MOUNT AFTER PARTITIONING
TRY EJECTING SD CARD AND RE-RUN THE INSTALL SCRIPT
IF YOU EJECTED IT AND IT FAILED AGAIN REBOOT AND RE-RUN THE SCRIPT

ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR ERROR

I did so with the MMC and I can't get it to work.
I don't know why it mounts on /dsk2, but I shouldn't care about it and let the experts think about it... but, I have no idea of what sfdisk is and why isn't found.

I thought: maybe I forgot to uncheck swap, but MMC is not mounted, so I can't have flash enabled...

Hope you all can help me.

TIA, Binky.

You are NOT root. You have to be root when ./clone.sh

I am root, but I used rootsh instead of becomeroot, because Eko One repository is down and not available anymore, I can't find becomeroot (at least in OS2008HE).

xterm
sudo gainroot
sfdisk

and what err message you got?

Re: Step by step guide: 48Mhz kernel and MMC boot clone
 

-sh: sfdisk: not found

sfdisk is not available in the app manager and I can't do apt-get install sfdisk because from terminal, I can't cofigure the debs, it says that ldconfig is missing -_-

Re: Step by step guide: 48Mhz kernel and MMC boot clone
 

Well, you were right in some way, because I installed sudser and opened a root shell ("rush") and it seems to be working now... although it hasn't finished yet. Anyway, thank you very much for your help.

Does it work? I want to know too........ :)

Re: Step by step guide: 48Mhz kernel and MMC boot clone
 

I installed the SDHC 48 MHz kernel and it's taking more than 45 minutes... so I'll tell you later if it works.

Re: Step by step guide: 48Mhz kernel and MMC boot clone
 

It seems that due my INTERNAL.txt now I can boot from 3 places O_O

It was

FAT 128
SWAP 128
1 ext2
TIMEOUT 10

And bootmenu gives me the chance to boot from
Flash
Internal Card ext2
Internal Card ext3

(or something like that)

Also, ./clone.sh only finished 1º part, when doing the second my tablet turned off... but since I can boot from Internal Card ext2 and Internal Flash (haven't tried the third option) It seems to don't matter.

So thank you.

Binky
