i made a deb this morning (i can't test it) but let me know how it go's.

Edit: i need to rework the deb.

Edit: in this version you still have to chmod a+x accordingly,
and it looks for any .tgz in MyDocs so make sure the rootstrap is the only. tgz in that directory.

Wow this is very interesting. Downloading rootstrap now

Re: [WIP]Harmattan SDK"on device" [N9/950]
 

Why not use the Harmattan SDK final rootstrap ?

Re: [WIP]Harmattan SDK"on device" [N9/950]
 

will do in next release.

OK I was playing around with the digsigsums, couldn't quite get it to work ... but now I have a working deb.

i managed to build a proper deb (with Qt Creator) manifests and all that. i could add HarmChom to the package but its not my project. with that being said Prerequisite 1, 2, 4 still has to be done. theres a new one.

- first time uses you must install SDK from cmd line as root "hsdk -i".

then your free to start chroot from desktop.

note: remember that the rootstrap during installation should be the only .tgz in the MyDocs directory.

Parameters:
"-h help shows parameters"
"-i installs SDK"
"-r removes SDK"
"-s starts SDK"
"-e ends SDK"
"-v shows version"

hsdk (0.0.3)

* added binary blkid (to tell what kind of file system is in the image) plus its lib.
* added postinst, prerm script to .deb .
* added the ability to create images with filesystem, create mount directory, mount any image.

After many trials to run HSDK on normal kernel & Inception, I am 95% sure that hsdk installation bricks (next reboot it keep rebooting) the MeeGo Harmattan OS when open mode kernel is not used. A firmware reflash fixes this problem (but all extra softwares are deleted).

Anyway, using HSDK I've created a "Harmattan SDK final" image and it works well with qchroot (from HarmChom), without HSDK.

(Update) I've tested HSDK 0.0.3 and looking inside the .deb, there are some system file changes, maybe they are the reason of boot loop when using Inception (and without open mode kernel) on my N9.
Previous versions of HSDK don't have system file changes, maybe they can be used with Inception & without open mode kernel. But I can't risk to test it now as my N9 is well configured and being used a lot.

(2nd update) HSDK 0.0.1 works 100% ok for Inception users (without open mode kernel), see post #13.

wanna share the src / link to .dsc is fine
