Now you notice pppd is the last step. Funny thing is we arent even getting there, we are failing at least once on 1 and then we keep failing on 2. Only reason i know this is because of the rils i made. They are very verbose so we get to see everything

Unfotunately we cant copy because android is natively setup this way. /etc will always be a link for /system/etc. But thats where it ends. We decide about the internals. So we can move ppp to data if we want to and link it back to /etc

The other method is to recompile pppd and have it look somewhere else. Now arrg was able to bring up data once after much hacking which was manual. But it was also short lived.

At this stage i say we try anything.. i finally got a boost mobile account and will try to activate today. So we will continue this through the weekend.
Great information. I think that if we have it working with rootfs, we should have no issue porting that over to initrd or elsewhere and using symlinks or whatever we need to do. I'm slowly testing out changes at the moment to see what breaks what. Next on my list is to try swapping out android.init and see what changes I need to make to get that one working.
