N/A = not applicable. So, your clone is NOT working, your bootmenu may be fine. Sometimes, sometimes, you take the card out and pray for 5 sec and put it back, that will fix it. If that is the case, you should start back up your stuff from the SD, apparantly this is a sign of SD about to fail, in a day, in a week, maybe in 100 yr.

I just made 3 clones yesterday to update to a higher capacity card. And sure, I dont do that everyday, honestly, I have to go back to the step by step, and follow my own footstep, and every single one works. Just follow the part that made clones, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=22155

And it is also a very 'lazy' way to do that, I set it up to do it all on a N800, so that I dont have to copy files, and cloned the thing on N800 and booted up on N810, everything worked on the N810, except the rotate did not work. But hey, to do this way, I spent only 25 min and got 3 working clones. BTW, I noticed, Diablo is very very slow:

To make clones, takes 9 min for an N810 to make clones and under similar conditions, takes only 2.5 min to make on N800. This is only to make clones, nothing to do with web browser/bootup/shutdown. but it is interesting.


If the clones work, somehow you already determine that, you just need bootmenu, then try this http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=22771

Again, there are many ways to skin a cat, whatever it works. As I look at your post, there are two things to make mmc boot. One is the clone, another one is the boot menu, you have to systematically to sort out which is which. I got step by step on both, that should take care of alot of us, I mean including myself :-)

post back if questions, we will help you out

i finally got it to work... thanks bun.
but there is one thing that boders me. i followed your tutorial regarding mmc kernel. after i reboot my screen goes flashing black with stripes of white. i thought that was the end of my n810 because it wont boot. so i try reflashing it. and it went back to normal again...

what happened? i dont know... for what i know is i followed the instructions carefully and when i reboot there goes the blinking black and white with the nokia logo.

anyway, i got my mmc card booting. thanks bun.
