I am booting from my mmc card, the only thing on my flash is a fresh 2006os, with bootmenu installed. I am booting from mmc now and it runs great. I want to update (flash) the kernel update for the 4x mmc speed. I am booting off mmc partition #2, so if even if I set my root device to mmc it would fail. And you can not flash your root device root device to mmcp2. The newer kernel is also on the flash install, can I copy files? Which ones?

any ideas would be awesome,,,

Thanks

Flashing kernel has nothing to do with bootmenu or booting from anything. Kernel can be currently flashed only from linux PC via official flasher, not from device itself.

True that flashing kernel from device is technically possible and I have it in my TODO list. Shouldn't be hard. Just had no time and motivation. It is better to test new kernel first without flashing. And this can only be done from linux PC anyway. So when you are able to test it first (and you should) you can also flash it.

I am flashing from linux laptop. I flashed kernel update to 770, booting from mmc part #2, is this still using kernel on flash, or did rsync move the kernel to mmc during copy.

Kernel is always in flash in special kernel partition (/dev/mtdblock2), not in rootfs or initfs partition or mmc. There is only one kernel, unfortunately you can't have more kernels and switch/dual boot between them (would be useful sometimes).

Thanks, so when I flashed the kernel to flash, I was done. I guess this means you can not dual boot 2005/2006 OS? I also assume sardine must use same kernel as current 2006 OS?

Thanks,
