I googled to one of your kernels in a hard-to-find corner, and this one seems to initialize the uSD. I have just put the modules on place and I will try again asap.

[UPDATE] It boots and the uSD is mounted. The are tons of init erros related to pty.

The system seems to halt after starting wicd. The last thing I have is 'Loading /lib/udev/keymaps/nokia-n900-keys.map'.

And I am getting old for this font size ;-)

Ok, I'm now trying the install.sh script, and here are some impressions:

The script doesn't like /dev/mmcblk0 as the microsd card. It then tries to access individual partitions as /dev/mmcblk3 instead of /dev/mmcblk0p3, and everyting break. Had to put the hard in my phone and then go through usb cable: the card is then visible as /dev/sdc.

If one does not specify the size of the FAT partition, then there's no sdc3 on device and the whole thing breaks.

The script requires parted, but it's not listed amongst the prerequisites.

After that the following got printed out:
Code:

Now it's downloading Ubuntu image and I'll see what gets out of it.

I think this might work with "linaro-hwpack-create" without the need of a launchpad PPA, if added in config file.
UPDATE2: see http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p...&postcount=281

UPDATE: works. I was able to create a linaro hwpack with kernel and integration packages.

This is the config I used (probably wrong and incomplete, need advice):
Code:
[hwpack]
format=2.0
name=linaro-n900
architectures=armhf
origin=Linaro
packages=linux-image-2.6.37-n900 linux-headers-2.6.37-n900 kubuntu-mobile-n900-integration
assume-installed=linaro-headless
mmc_id=0:1
kernel_addr=0x82000000
initrd_addr=0x83000000
u_boot_in_boot_part=No
partition_layout=bootfs_rootfs
kernel_file=boot/vmlinuz-*-n900
initrd_file=boot/initrd.img-*-n900
extra_boot_options=omapfb.vram=0:2M,1:2M,2:2M mtdoops.mtddev=2 nosplash
boot_script=boot.scr

[ubuntu]
sources-entry=http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports precise main universe

[updates]

[security]

While playing with linaro hwpack and stuff I came to the conclusion that linaro stuff sucks. Forget it, that path isn't worth going.

But why? Some design issues? Have you talked about it with linaro people?

ls: cannot access
are just checks that you don't already have it. Will silence them. And will fix FAT issue.
Nice catch, thanks
Are you trying to use it on the phone itself? chroot doesn't work on it AFAIK.

pty errors must be fixed after dist-upgrade (bug link somewhere in the thread). Hint: there is a just-chroot.sh

While there obviously some bugs in your script, after trying linaro tools (instead of reading about it) I think your script is actually more advanced and better. So... from my point of view there isn't much to talk to linaro people about anymore. All in all it is only my opinion, maybe I am wrong.

But these tools wasn't adapted for N900 yet, obviously. Actually, tgall_foo suggested that we adapt it. And since Linaro is a direct link to upstream Ubuntu components I'd like to use exactly it. We just need to file some bug reports, don't we? I haven't tried it, actually. Stopped on the hwpack absence.
Besides, are there any alternatives?
Can you please add the exact problems you have with linaro?

After what I have seen, the n900 could be adapted by tgall_foo in less than a hour, maybe even in a small coffee break. I seriously think so.

And since Linaro is a direct link to upstream Ubuntu components I'd like to use exactly it. We just need to file some bug reports, don't we? I haven't tried it, actually. Stopped on the hwpack absence.
Maybe I see things to negative but I expect them to analyse the work done by us, close the bug reports and say somesthing like "Sorry, we don't do omap3 anymore" and put some new barrier in their tools to stop "outsiders" from doing stuff.

Besides, are there any alternatives?
Probably not.

Can you please add the exact problems you have with linaro?
A very subjective urge to smash my PC, after seeing how things (not) work. Sorry, but that is the best I can do for now and I need some sleep.
