For RAM_START, I'm thinking that is the pointer to the starting memory address we work from (where everything starts loading into RAM). This would cause initrd to get loaded into memory at the offset mentioned above.
Also, did you manually hex edit the rhod_payload file? I've been reading through [TUT] Manual Full XIP Porting (& MANY MORE TUTORIALS) [ONLINE] - xda-developers but am not all that excited about doing the math out  |
Ummm... I guess I was a bit off.
Sorry about that. Quick math = FAIL!
Yes you are correct we have 288 MB of RAM and 38 MB is for Video.
HTC Mobile Phones - T-Mobile Touch Pro2 - Overview
I did manually hex the rhod_payload file, I did hack my way though it... But it does seem to work.
Here where my steps:
Changed Partition 0 to 0x23 (xip ram). (Same as the Vogue)
Looked at a normal TP2 ROM and saw the Start sector was 640.
So I subtracted 2 from 640 and this gave me the Partition 0 Total Sectors.
I then set the start sector of Part1 to 640 and left total sectors 0 (same as the Vogue)
You get the picture for the rest of the start and total sectors...
For the Tracks and heads I played around with until I had the Geometry = 64 (same as the TP2 ROM). I tried matching them up to the original TP2 ROM the best I could.
If you can find a better process to do this by all means go for it!
I'm not saying these values are right but they work.

I would say go for it! I didn't seem to lose any settings today after a couple of reboots.
