Ok. Here is what I found out...
First here is my partition table:

Geometry: flash has 0 virtual heads


MSFLSH50 header found at offset 0x800
  (0 Reserved Entries, 0 Flash Region Entries)

Searching for IMGFS signature...
  Found IMGFS at byte 0x00380000 (sector 0x00380000).

  dwFSVersion:              00000001
  dwSectorsPerHeaderBlock:  00000001
  dwRunsPerFileHeader:      00000001
  dwBytesPerHeader:         00000034
  dwChunksPerSector:        00000020
  dwFirstHeaderBlockOffset: 00000800
  dwDataBlockSize:          00001000
  szCompressionType:        LZX
  dwFreeSectorCount:        00024682
  dwHiddenSectorCount:      00000040
  dwUpdateModeFlag:         00000000

As you can see partitions do not make that big of a difference. What seems to matter is having the imgfs found at 0x380000. I did the math in tinboot to do this. With a little playing around too..
This boots just fine now. (For me of course )

Nate I'm yours works because the tinboot is found somewhere on the on the partitions. Not sure why mine didn't work before. Your tinboot is getting inserted at 0x20000 to where mine is inserted at 0x2000. This is what Magldr roms use. I then had to change the .org in tinboot from 1000 to 2000. Now I'm not sure at all why this was not needed to be changed before but I think it has something to do with the not having the boot section in the partition table... Just a guess.

But I would like someone else to test my latest NBH.

Edit: Removed Attachment...

No, you'll be missing a few files. Might want to go back and re-read the thread.

Androidupdate.tgz - Andboot folder
Androidinstall.tgz - Andboot Folder
install-seq.sh - Andboot Folder
RHODIMG.NBH - Sdcard Root

Still, re-read one more time before asking further support questions. I've done a good enough job at butting in to the development and I'm sure the developers wouldn't want to drag any more newbies in... if ya know what I mean.

Alright. Thanks for the info.

I'll keep the nand/sd version I have on my phone. I knew more files were needed and more or less was only being given to certain others to help. I'll patiently wait as I am more concerned about the Thunderbolt release anyway.

Don't worry, once we've got a few more fixes in the system, we'll get this upped and ready for everyone to use. Right now, we have no root, no data, and some other minor issues. All of them are because of us blowing up rootfs and moving stuff around. It should be just a little more refactoring and we'll be good to go.

Cool. Good to hear :P
