Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

I did. Am I suppose to get a boot option at reboot?


Edit: Ok it did but, I seem to be still booting from flash.

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

Try setting the default boot again, and reboot.

This is normal, if this is the first time bootmenu was installed

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

I have not had any failures in the cloning process, its possible, the partition was ina bad state.

Try the clone again and be sure to format the filesystem when prompted

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

Hi, thanks for your quick fix !) I can now boot-up to my internal card partition (cloned using earlier install tools in earlier diablo) -- bootmenu works!

But clone, backup, mkfs still fails. I still see the same error message. For cloning, it didn't prompt me to select partition to clone to (and displayed some error message). Backup didn't allow me to backup to internal card FAT32 partition (only to the ext2 partition). Mkfs hang while searching for unformatted FS.

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

Can you run these until they hang or complete, and send me the output,

export PATH=/root/.bin:$PATH
scan.sh

#mkfs script
sh -x /root/.bin/mkall.sh 2> output

#clone script
sh -x /root/.bin/clone.sh 2> output2

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

I re cloned it and reset default boot to mmcblk0p2 and it still isn't showing up on the boot menu after reboot. My boot menu options at start up are,
internal flash
(external MMC card, p2, ext3) N/A
(internal MMC card, p6, ext3) N/A
Power off (when not on charger)

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

I would say retry install bootmenu, N/A means it doesn't see the cards probably something went wrong with bootmenu install, it did not copy the ext2/3 modules to the initfs, so it cant see the disk. (I am just guessing)
I would try install bootmenu again.

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

I ran mkfs script for 4min (hang) and terminated it (cpu show idle).

Re: Introducing console-tools v1 (install-tools replacemement)
 

Works like a charm. Thanks a whole bunches. I believe the problem what that the first time I installed BootMenu I didn't select the boot device during the installation and accidently click ok to install.

#2 Looking at the first line of the script, it appears you did not select a "source" drive for the clone. If you did something went wrong, I tested on my 800 but with old os, I am udating now. I think something you have installed might be the problem, but I am not sure yet.... Did it even prompt for a selection?
