Obviously, I missed a step or two Can I get some clarification please.

TIA

I found where it downloaded but when I click on it it says unable to install. Is that because I'm not root? Do I become root then apt-get ? or something?

I installed the SSU update on my n800. Its booting diablo from mmc2.
I had to use apt-get update command becuase i couldnt see the update in app manager. It showed me all the files that it was going to download and all was going well, but I got an error at the very end of the update process posted here:

I rebooted my tablet and now I cant boot from my 16 gig sd card anymore. I select my "internal MMC card, partition2, ext2" from boot menu. I get the messsage "booting from immc2 (mmcblk0p2 ext2)...The blue progress bar never loads and then it goes right back to the boot menu. I have verified that the card is not fried because I can see both partitions when I put it in my kubuntu laptop and all my files are there.
Is there any way I can get my n800 to boot from my card again?
Can I delete the incomplete update files somewhere on the card?
I never got the out of memory error that some have posted, so I dont think my issue is related to that, but any help would be greatly appreciated. Just to add some more info, I was running the rotate kernel before I did the update, but I have since flashed back to the stock kernel, but my issue still remains.
Thanks

I seem to have had a bit of a problem with the update. The packages looked to all have installed correctly. The n800 did not reboot. After a manual reboot, the control panel reports I am upgraded. However doing a:

cat /mnt/initfs/etc/initfs_version

shows the old version of the initfs.

I am using the bootmenu and was booted from SD when I did the update. How do I get the new initfs/rootfs?

I do have a recient backup and could always boot to flash. Run the update a second time and reclone to SD and restore. Is there a better way?

TIA

seems like the new update may have broken rdesktop 0.4diablo1... Hitting okay after inputting the correct settings just makes the program hang

Tried reinstalling, but same... wonder what updated package could have caused the issue... anyone else have this problem?

You should be able to install it without root. Does it tell you what problem it is? (check the problem tabs).

Would this help, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=22155 ,
=============================================

Clone to mmc, I use 1 G Rs-MMC, use PB's clone scripts, http://www.internettablettalk.com/fo...ad.php?t=20534.
Scrolled down to "SCRIPT UPDATED 11:30EST 5/29/08, http://penguinbait.com/install-tools-ad.tgz and dl the install-tools-ad.tgz into flash, not MMC card.

Place in /root
open xterm
cd /root
tar zxvf install-tools-ad.tgz
This will then make /root/install-tools (it has to be in this location to work)
cd /root/install-tools
Now, carefully read PB's instructions regarding INTERNAL-txt.EXAMPLE and EXTERNAL.txt-EXAMPLE. The 770 has only one SD slot and is internal. turn off swap file. Edit the INTERNAL.txt.EXAMPLE to your likeness, and rename it to INTERNAL.txt, and delete EXTERNAL.txt-EXAMPLE; This is my INTERNAL.txt file for a 1 G RS-MMC
" FAT 300
SWAP 128
1 ext2
TIMEOUT 10"

This should generate a ext2 600 MB and Fat 300 MB and SWAP file. and now fire,

./clone.sh
================================================

Well, osso-software-version-unlocked is a package rm_you put together to install the correct osso-software-version-rx*4-unlocked package.
Code:
apt-get remove osso-software-version-unlocked
Then try installing the osso-software-version-rx44 again.

Also do:
Code:
cat /etc/apt/sources.list.d/hildon-application-manager.list
and post its output here.

The following packages have unmet dependencies:

If it's the same as what happened to me, first uninstall Penguinbait's "Install Tools" through the app manager, then install the bootmenu installer.
