Hi,

who is doing the easy debian chroot images right now? Perhaps someone can hint him to this posting. I guess enlightment desktop would run smoothly on the n900.

Just download and use http://sourceforge.net/projects/bodhilinux/files/

Re: Bodhi Linux chroot newest version?
 

Should be possible as the creator of Bodhi also owns a N900, or used to do so, at least.

Ah, there we are...

So it says you should add the bodhi repo and install bodhi desktop sounds great but not like the bodhi author did a chroot version. Thanks so far!

I create user but I haven't permissions to config files. How to solve this?

I solved it in that way: chown user /home/user

I talked to Jeff over facebook and he said we need a Debian Wheezy ARMHF built to actually install the bodhi desktop. Is there one around?

Got ubuntu armhf rootfs to test :

Hi,

I posted the link from this topic to the facebook talk with Jeff. We will see whether there will be a future on my thoughts ;-)

Re: Bodhi Linux chroot newest version?
 

I do actually still use an N900. Mostly just use it for phone calls/text messages at this point - haven't done much hacking on the device.

Is there anything special that needs to be installed on a given file system for it to launch an xsession under a chroot (that is not something I've done before)?

Your best starting point would be here for creating a Bodhi file system for the N900 -> http://sourceforge.net/projects/bodh.../ARMHF/rootfs/

There is a tarball there with a generic rootfs with nothing system specific.

Here is the easy debian chroot threat. Mayby you guys can interlink to work it out.

Re: Bodhi Linux chroot newest version?
 

Baggacfreak, Download tarball unpack it on separate partition or in prepared image and install ed-chroot_armhf.deb. Should work.
There is problem with correct umount and arrows/tab in chroot terminal.

Hi,

sorry been a while since last visit. So you mean I can update my existing easy debian image with the tarball and deb file and have armhf afterwards. After this I should edit the bodhi source and install the bodhi desktop? But how do I than start the bodhi desktop instead of the existing desktop environment?

By the way anyone else gave it a try?

Thanks!

No, you can't update arm to armhf but you can create new image:
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1M count=2000 of=bodhi.ext4
mkfs.ext4 bodhi.ext4
mount it:
mount bodhi.ext4 /mnt
then download tarball:
mv bodhi.tar.xz /mnt/
cd /mnt
tar xJf bodhi*.tar.xz
chroot and create user
then move bodhi.ext4 to Mydocs and edit /home/user/.chroot with correct IMGFILE
after this install my deb in chroot image ("debian chroot" icon)
If you have problem try debwm in terminal. Remember to install kernel-cssu or newest kernel-power
