it looks weird that there has been NO quality test reports for Nokia N900 since December 08 2010.

That's because we gave up on you guys, you whine too much and have unrealistic expectations

Seriously though, things moved to qa-reports website at that time and is being reported there. Don't put too much into percentages and bug reports if you don't know the technical reasons behind some of them.

And the fact everyone is putting everything in, as we're hitting soft feature freeze, makes things a tad unstable..

i am not putting anything on the reports or any kind of analogy. well i saw the date of december 08 and i always thought that the testing and new build are available every week on tuesday. and reports of tests are expected to be delayed upto three weeks from initial realese date: what i saw was its been 6 weeks from the last report. wasnot saying thats bad or good or anything.
then we have an answer now, there is a soft feature freeze which explains it why no reports are in public (couldnot find that mentioned anywhere in meego).
and this was the first time i even looked at the QA report. and my post was more of a question to the ones in the know like you.
Meego for N900 is the least thing i am worrying and looking forward to anyway.

I think you completely missed what StsKeeps was saying, in MeeGo we have weekly testing reports. The reason you don't see reports from the period of the 8th of December last year, is because you're looking in the wrong place. Test reports are now at the qa-reports website: http://qa-reports.meego.com/

The feature freeze is mentioned in the MeeGo release cycle/roadmap documentation, it's not unusual, and it wont affect test reports. Those will still get generated at least weekly.

Hi guys,

I have been following

http://wiki.meego.com/ARM/N900/Install/Dual_Boot

and seem to be stuck at the uboot / bootm stage.
I have set the MMC (micro-SDHC 16GB) up by formatting it in the N900 (maemo) file manager. I had the card previously formatted in the ubuntu 10.10 disk manager with MBR option.

I dd'd the bz2'd raw image onto the card, got uboot-pr13 running without mmc.

When I put the mmc back in, restarted the phone, uboot wouldn't boot from the mmc. The error was gone too fast to make sense of it so I rebooted from Maemo and interrupted the boot process.

then I manually selected:

"run mmcboot"
booting from mmc...
wrong image formate for bootm command
ERROR: can't get kernel image!

what filesystem / partition table type does the bootm expect?
Can someone who's got this working perhaps provide a print out of their memory card's "fdisk" - [p]rint output? What else could/should I check?

Thanks guys for any help in advance.

--EDIT--
I know, this is a long shot - but in the beagleboard project, a mmc is used with uboot/bootm as well and there they recommend that a specific geometry be used for the mmc:

http://code.google.com/p/beagleboard...BootDiskFormat

would this apply here as well?

I have done this with windows 7,You should fist format your mmc in ext. Then just compress the file to your mmc then just install u-boot, Before the MeeGo is able to boot you need also load the kernel (vmlinuz) provided with the raw image to the device. This can be done with the flasher.
