Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
The first time you run MOSLO as described in the installation guide, your mmcblk0 will be repartitioned, so that your partition 1 (MyDocs) is split into two parts, and the upper (4G) part is then assigned to partition 4.

It looks a bit weird but it's a valid partition configuration.

If I remember correctly it works without losing your data but to be sure backup your MyDocs before doing that. (if I remember correctly I had to reformat my partition 1 after that...)

After partitioning it will look something like this:

Code:

~ # /sbin/sfdisk -l

Disk /dev/mmcblk0: 1957120 cylinders, 4 heads, 16 sectors/track
Units = cylinders of 32768 bytes, blocks of 1024 bytes, counting from 0

  Device Boot Start    End  #cyls    #blocks  Id  System
/dev/mmcblk0p1        16  1632511  1632496  52239872    c  FAT32
                end: (c,h,s) expected (1023,3,16) found (1023,63,32)

Thank you juiceme,

So i have to boot to Moslo, connect the N9 with the USB-Cable to PC, check the fdisk -l, if i have the /dev/mmcblk0p4 and than ?

What should i I do with the nemo image.bz2 ?
bzcat to /dev/mmcblk04 ?

Sorry for my dumb questions...

THank You

Yes, that's basically it.

You should follow the guide https://wiki.merproject.org/wiki/Nemo/Installing using the part "Dual-boot method" which will not flash your bootloader but just starts up the MOSLO installer.

When your mmcblk0 is repartitioned, it will be exported to your linux PC via USB, then you can just untar the NEMO image to the exported partition. Then, unmount, and if you have already installed ubiboot, just boot it to the Nemo installation.
The defaults in boot.conf already contain reference to the Nemo partition and kernel, if you have not changed them.

When in Nemo, set up 3G or WIFI networking, login to shell and do "zypper ref; zypper dup" as root to get the latest updates. It looks quite slick with the new homescreen layout :)

And where is correct location for kernel file "zImage.pr13" if I am using unchanged boot.conf?

this: "/boot/Harmattan/boot/"
or this "/mnt/2"

Well, that just means that on the ubiboot FS you have symlink "/boot/Harmattan --> /mnt/2"
Note that also the target of the link is the "/mnt/2" of the ubiboot FS, not the "/mnt" of your Harmattan root FS.

When (still in ubiboot FS, running the menu...) you do "mount /dev/mmcblk0p2 -t ext4 /mnt/2", what happens is that your Harmattan root FS now appears on the "/mnt/2" of your ubiboot FS.
Now, remember you have the symlink there, the place that your kernels will appear can be resolved to: "/boot/Harmattan/boot/"
This is same as "/boot/" on your Harmattan root FS.

If you are still confused, either just take my word for it or grab a pencil and piece of paper and sketch it out for yourself... :D

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
I have been trying a dual boot configuration with harmattan and nemo on my N9 (1603).

I managed to have both systems booting and working, but could never achieve stability in harmattan. I tried the following kernels: bzImage that came with nemo installation (on boot-orig dir), openmode kernel, openmode kernel + l2fix.

The only kernel that allowed me to boot harmattan was the l2fix. However, the system had stability problems, with several reboots in sequence. On the other hand, nemo was rock-solid.

What kernels are you using for harmattan? Is it running stable?

peterleinchen 2013-03-28 12:28

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
@juiceme (also thedead1440)

I have two "severe" problems now.
Maybe more related to open kernel instead of ubiboot, but as I read from TMO I did everything right:
flashed full eMMC stock image. flashed open kernel, repartitioned, prepared ubifs, flashed ubi kernel, booted open mode l2 fix kernel

BUT when I now try to
1. enter a mail password it is forgotten with next reboot
even when I boot into stock omap kernel and/or recreate the account I have to reenter on next boot
This is the same with all kernels (stock, open mode, l2 fix, ...)

2. when I want to add a SIP account, this does not work (connection to SIP not possible)
when I boot stock kernel I can connect and this password is not forgotten. But it only works with stock kernel, not with an open mode. Did I miss something here?

thedead1440 2013-03-28 12:41

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
peterleinchen,

Seems like you forgot to delete the 3 folders as user:

Code:

rm -rf /home/user/.aegis
rm -rf /home/user/.accounts
rm -rf /home/user/.activesync

Now you'll have to create your accounts again and only at first boot you'll be asked for passwords ;)

Try not to change between open mode and stock kernels. Changing between openmode kernels is fine but once you involve stock you are going back to aegis configs which cause the issue ;)

As far as I know you are the first one ever to get ubiboot launch Harmattan on a HW rev.1603 device... :) :eek:

Have you ever had those BME-related "connect charger" problems?
Have you done some tweaking to device init or are you running ubiboot-as-is?

Could you please post your "dmesg" and "/var/log/syslog" after booting to Harmattan from ubiboot?

I was SO hopeful, I thought I could crack this 1603 problem with your help...

well, I am now making a serial debug adapter that I hope to use to find out what is going on with the boot phase anyway.

Just put them in "/boot/" when you are running Harmattan.

Just resolved it that way after fiddling trying to handle that without deletion of these folders (thanks, was aware of that already) ;) But to no avail. Now removed all accounts, rebooted, renamed/deleted folders, rebooted, added accounts and all is fine.

That is a real pity, if so.
Because then my second problem strikes again:
2. when I want to add a SIP account, this does not work (connection to SIP not possible)
when I boot stock kernel I can connect and this password is not forgotten. But it only works with stock kernel, not with an open mode. Did I miss something here?
Does SIP not work under open mode kernel?

Now if that's the case then there is some aegis-related dependency that I do not know about. Granted, I am not using SIP.

And I did not read about that also. So I was/am a bit surprised/annoyed.
And together with that aegis password sucker it is way more, otherwise I could boot to stock kernel when explicitly needed (which is 90%), but then the password prob strikes. "Bug loop". :(

Another report
experienced that "connect charger" today. But mainly/only when booting the default (l2 fix) and letting the menu time out.
It happened only when menu timed out, then it started to boot, message, reboot to ubi and boot to default after another time out.
So maybe something in second boot stage times out?
Or it is really the pwr_off boot reason (from previous shutdown, which have not been handled) given to second kernel?

And another report
sometimes the menu does not react on touch. So I try to select a kernel, but the touch is not recognized. And then menu times out.
Did you notice that, too?

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
If someone has 1603 in Tampere region, I could connect serial cable to it and see whats wrong with the boot.

And regarding sip, most likely it is just because that you have booted into secure mode, ie you didnt do clean jump to open mode when you flashed into openmode. Which should be fixaple by removing and recreating the aegis store that holds the sip data.

I thought I did it right:
full reflash, boot, devel-su and disable disclaimer (no more), flashed open mode kernel, boot up
What is wrong here?

And about aegis store holding SIP data:
if you refer to /home/user/.aegis
I have already deleted and tried again under open mode kernel

Well, one thing you COULD do, is since you have 2 sets of the directories, one with aegis keys and one without, what if instead of deleting the dirs, back them up (both sets) under some directory on your rootfs, and then just run a script in boot phase to copy either set in use :D

I have not seen that, it sounds strange as the touchscreen driver is built in the kernel, not as a module.

Not bad, will be implemented :)

Actually I think I make it configurable ON/OFF as it's almost the same effort.

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
Well it's actually a bit of an overview rather than detailed step-by-step guide on purpose.

It is important that you have at least basic understanding of the required concepts, like unix filesystem and working on terminal in order not to blow your foot off with this.

Part of this is that you DO have to tune this according to your own device setup. This is because ubiboot is really most useful for developers that want and need to boot different OS'es and kernels easily.

juiceme 2013-04-04 11:27

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
Releasing ubiboot-02 (integrated) version.

This version of ubiboot introduces several niceties;
  • It is no longer necessary to install ubiboot on mtd partition
  • If installed on mtd partition, less flash eraseblock wear due to ro-mount
  • Better handling of exceptional conditions (RTC/USB poweron events)
  • Ability to fast-boot to a OS/kernel
  • More configurable options
  • Persistent logging with correct timestamps

See the full story on http://www.swagman.org/juice/ubiboot/README

With vers.2 I only get "Failed to load selected OS!", "Please run a maintanance boot".

I had a mtd5 installation before and put content for the kernels from "boot.conf" to "ubiboot.conf" and put ist together with "ubiboot-02.menus.cpio" to MyDocs/boot. I get the menu, but no kernel boots.

will flash back to mtd5-kernel next.

thanks for your answer,
i want ubiboot only for couriosity and for use n9 at the best possible- i'm not a dev. i know something about unix and terminal but i think isnt enoght. so i appreciate this work and a waitingfor the day (if it come) when we have a step by step instruction or when i learned how to do it!
dont give up with this work!
i think it's awesome

It's possible you have introduced some path problems when you set up your ubiboot.conf based on your previous boot.conf.

There should be a /var/log/ubiboot.log" in your system which might show what is the problem.

You might want to try the new ubiboot-02 then. It is easier to set up than the original ubiboot.

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
@juiceme
Astonishing!
Real nice one.

Would have loved the logging ability in first version to save me some time ;)

What about updating from 01 to 02. I think as easy as grab source/ubifs.tar and overwrite? Or do we need to do some more.

Thanks also for the USB/RTC thingy. I hope it works, will see soon.
I had modified the init to only enable the maintenance mode when bootreason was pwr_key and USB attached (so first push power button and then attach USB). But this seems way better.

Another report:
I had a lot of wd32_to bootreasons. Almost always after shutting down device from any other kernel. And then boot up and let menu time out ( so default kernel l2fix was chosen). Then first boot did not succeed and a second boot (also timeout) did work. For this second boot the bootreason was wd32_to. Any ideas?
Did not go completely through sources, but have seen you have command line in logger (which holds also bootreason, right?)

Another report (which you may change maybe):
in new sources: when/if the kexec loading fails we get a log, but this log will not show the error number given back

also the possible number of block devices is limited to 8, so a maximum of 7 partitions is supported for mmcblk. You may forget about p8 and p9. I did so :)
btw: Thanks for the p7 configuration possibility

Do you have set the G_HARMATTAN_AUTOBOOT=1 ?

Then reset it to '0' and you should be OK. See irclog...

Well, updating from 01 -> 02 is really easy, just grab the ubiboot-02_040413.tar, put the ubiboot.conf and ubiboot-02.menus.cpio in the root of your ubifs partition (since you already have prepared that) and check the content of the ubiboot.conf.

Thanks also for the USB/RTC thingy. I hope it works, will see soon.
I had modified the init to only enable the maintenance mode when bootreason was pwr_key and USB attached (so first push power button and then attach USB). But this seems way better.

The fix should work now. The logic is 2-staged, first it is detected that powerup reason was "usb" and then sysfs is mined for the actual event, whether it is "charger" or "data" connection. Device only enters maintanance mode if it was plugged to a computer.

Another report:
I had a lot of wd32_to bootreasons. Almost always after shutting down device from any other kernel. And then boot up and let menu time out ( so default kernel l2fix was chosen). Then first boot did not succeed and a second boot (also timeout) did work. For this second boot the bootreason was wd32_to. Any ideas?
Did not go completely through sources, but have seen you have command line in logger (which holds also bootreason, right?)

Just realised that therr is some unclean umounting going on... propably that amounts to the problems coderus has been also having. Just took me 30min to boot back to Harmattan :D

Another report (which you may change maybe):
in new sources: when/if the kexec loading fails we get a log, but this log will not show the error number given back

I'll have a look at it when I need to change init code anyways to fix the current issues.

whats wrong? The kernel is stored on rootfs in /boot, like before on version 01. Uses the vers. 02 a different mounting?

There are some issues that need fixing, been debugging it now for some time. :mad:
