Well I'm stumped for the moment, the device wasn't automounted.
And it's still getting ext4 errors, which has to be the build itself as far as I can see.

I've tried it from two PC's (fedora and debian)

Getting raw image from here

I was using the power kernel/uboot, I removed that and used the default pr and exactly the same issue.

All I can think is the alpha is broken....has anyone got this working?

I can neither boot this:

http://repo.meego.com/MeeGo/builds/t...-armv7hl-n900/

nor the image deadmalc used.

I am using win32imager.

After a while (about 5 minutes) I get a black screen with where I see a white dash in the upper left corner - but that's it.

We tested this fine (and based a presentation on it) and so did others, do you see any errors with mmcblk0 during bootup?

Shouldn't it be mmcblk1 for the micro-sd card?

To answer the original question, I had it running with a minor work around. uboot would not boot it everytime. I had to type mmc1 init at the prompt and then run mmcboot. Otherwise, the phone would boot into maemo.

I had to wipe the DE alpha to get my card back, unfortunately. Next time around I will try to find a way to have 1st partition available for maemo and still have DE around.

In case encouragement helps, I am really, really, glad to see the DE being developed. Although I am not a developer, I would be happy as long as the phone/e-mail/IM parts work well.

Mfe and skype functionality of the stock N900 would be hard to replace though.

I'll reflash and post exactly what I see, when people say it takes a while for the first boot...how long is a while (10mins,30?)
I left it for about 5 mins...is that not long enough!
