@taixzo
two requests (just personally from my side): after such amount of posts betwenn your posts please include a short/your prob'em description or a link. And cut your log file down to the problematic section (it really was a PITA to look after). Good was you used pastebin and did not spam this thread with log texts (smth I really hate).

OK, to your problem. It is obvious:
Quote:

Dec 10 20:49:28 (none) user.notice root: Cannot load Nemo kernel /boot/Nemo/boot/bzImage
Dec 10 20:49:28 (none) user.notice root: Boot OS/kernel selection failed
Either you have a mismatch in ubiboot.conf (not pointing nemo/sailfish to p4) or you have made a mistake during extraction or there is no filesystem at all on p4.
check with
devel-su
mkdir /mnt/p4
mount /dev/mmcblk0p4 /mnt/p4
ls /mnt/p4
If you find the files, then it is ubiboot.conf problem. Check yourself or show...

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
Because it seems that many people have trouble setting up ubiboot environment correctly, I have released a special SailfishOS-version of ubiboot-02-0.3.5

This version contains preconfigured scripts to boot Harmattan and any release of SailfishOS installed to normal location on ALT_OS partition.
Additionally, there are only 2 icons on the startup screen.
The l2-fixed kernel and harmattan preinit file si included

Get the version from here.
Read the documentation before installing.

so there.

---------- edit ----------

Mirror site for the archive on skeiron server.
As well as documentation

There is no filesystem on p4:

Code:

~ # mkdir /mnt/p4
~ # mount /dev/mmcblk0p4 /mnt/p4/
mount: mounting /dev/mmcblk0p4 on /mnt/p4 failed: Invalid argument
~ #

My Alt_OS partition seems to be /dev/mmcblk0p2. /dev/mmcblk0p4 is the extended partition, so the actual filesystems are on partitions 1,2,3,5 and 6.

@taixzo
If you choose the hard way ;) by creating extended partition, then you should know where your OS should go.
Please check for p5 and/or p6 then (of course).

--
Oh, and if your nemo/sailfish is really on p2, then your harmattan needs also adaptation (as said before) ...

Yeah well, anything to please the public :D:D
But seriously, I was once contemplating on creating a DEB of ubiboot install but (un)fortunately it is not possible since the internal flasher seems to refuse to flash unsigned binaries.

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)
 
it might be easier for a lot of people to have a Deb package to install config, cpio and scripts 'n stuff so that the only thing they'd have to do then is to flash the kernel after install...

We believe in you :D

That would be nice, since I do not speak chinese.
If you could do translation of the documentation, that would be beautiful :)

As for the texts in the ubiboot itself, the menu symbols are graphic, just easy to change if anybody wants to do that, as well as the info panel that is accessed by the "i" button on the menu, that's easy also.

It is more difficult to change the error messages and such, as I think there's not chinese font for text2screen that I am using to write that text.
It could be possible to replace at least the boot error texts with pictures... yes that is doable! :D
