Hi,
probably you are correct about the reason. I was trying to repartition the 32G. I needed 8 for apps and rest for MyDocs. I read a lot. I made Excel table to recalculate the blocks for the parts. This was done following the official HowTo-s and some additinal advices from the topics in the forum.
Then finally I created the needed commands and started. But after putting the new table I needed restart. And after this restart the things entered a loop of rebots. I was unable to finish creating the file systems. Here it is the prepared sequence I wanted to run:
"sudo gainroot
echo "unit: sectors
> /dev/mmcblk0p1 : start= 16777217, size= 44048384, Id= c
> /dev/mmcblk0p2 : start= 1, size= 16777216, Id=83
> /dev/mmcblk0p3 : start= 60825664, size= 1572864, Id=82
> /dev/mmcblk0p4 : start= 0, size= 0, Id= 0" > table
sfdisk --no-reread /dev/mmcblk0 < table
reboot
sudo gainroot
mkfs.ext3 /dev/mmcblk0p2
mkfs.vfat -F32 -n MyDocs /dev/mmcblk0p1
mount /dev/mmcblk0p1 /home/user/MyDocs"
Unfortunately I reached just up-to "reboot" and that is all.
It is strange that after I succeded to reinstall via Nokia Suite the apps part was 8G as I wanted.
But I am not sure that all is OK and because of that I decidet to flash with vanilla and then combined. Unfortunately I did not succeed.
Now I will follow your advice and will try again to repartition and do the commands from above. Then I will try to reflash.
I see someone was writting that such a problem with the flashing could be because of broken NOLO boot. But if it is broken would the maemo will boot as it is with my phone after the Nokia reinstall?
Regards
