Hej juiceme,
I think I spotted some hurdle when trying to boot harmattan from p5.
Taking a deeper look into the files compiled into the kernel, I have seen that you symlink /etc/passwd and /etc/group directly hardcoded from /mnt/2/etc/ passwd respective /mnt/2/etc/group.
This is what I wanted to avoid (to have the need for some harmattan files/dirs accessible on p2).
I edited /init (attached), but I am absolutely not sure if this will work.
When, at what time, the ubi system needs passwd and group?
If it is only when launching a shell, I think my small modification (peterleinchen 1) may work. But when it is already needed for starting /init itself, then I am doomed. In first case what about the maintenance mode: do we need it here also as it starts a shell (I have begun to modify: peterleinchen 2)?
Please take a look and let me know, please.
And i thought about changing the log location to /mnt/p1/boot/log (peterleinchen 3) as this location is visible to all operating systems and easily to access for everybody. I thought also about saving log to the selected OS /var/log location, but after rethinking discarded this idea. What do you think? (of course this needs to be fixed in all files then as well)
And I edited the wiki for the open mode preparation as Jonni told us. I did not do it this way, but it cannot harm nor cause trouble to try out (if you wanna flash)!
