[steveholtam]

Up and running on all of the new files. Still no data. Logs coming soon.

yeah you can remove that line from install then.

So you finally booting up fine? were you able to ssh into it ?

Still need to test mtd parts. Looks like Lmillers is also bad so need to test yours fully.

I think we can keep that ro mount in init script.

Solution to make link of ppp is:

mount -o remount,rw /system
ln -s /data/ppp /etc/ppp
mount -o remount,ro /system

because of ro mount will avoid /system partition corrupt from system crash or kernel panic! so our android sys will have more stability.

Here is the log. It looks like pppd is having link problems still.

New log after running this code. No data still. But here is the logcat -b radio.

Edit: Wifi is broke now as well.

There is a mount system ro in the inirtd that needs to be removed. Once it did it will work just fine... it does for me on first boot.

Nate or ACL should be posting the fix soon and hopfully a test build.

I'm going to be out on vacation until Tuesday so happy flashing to all!!!

What we really need to work on now is getting root permissions.
Which is something you can all help with!

Just a few quick things.

First, shouldn't it be ln -s /data/ppp /etc (rather than ln -s /data/ppp /etc/ppp)? If you are using ln for files, you match them up, but directories are different. The 2nd directory is the location that the link is put in, so if you do /etc/ppp it will create a linked folder at /etc/ppp/ppp back to /data/ppp, right?

Second, I made the changes earlier to the install-seq.sh to create this link during the install. I haven't had a chance to try it, but it can be downloaded here: http://gitorious.org/tinboot-for-lin...install-seq.sh

Finally, I will look into why removing the mount ro line fixes data because we actually remount again in sysinit.rc anyway. I don't think we need that line, but I'm curious as to why it affects data

The NBH should flash fairly quick because it is only writing 4 MB of data rather than 160 MB like most WinMo ROM's.

Thanks and thanked. You guys are the best. I wish you all happy logcats...

Actually we cheat and premount everything but we leave it as ro. Once android boots it remounts it as ro anyway, so leaving it as rw is fine. Actually to be true to the android way we should never mount the partitions and let android handle it all, but xdandroid needs a lot of tweaks since is haretized. Cyanogen will boot straight with almost no mods, but thats because the build itself is all set from the start for nand.

So i'm patching the init script now to remove the ro. So i'll post when everything is ready for download.

Nate: whats your mtdparts again? lmillers doesnt work so i might as well commit yours so i can continue on the recovery ..

i believe this is the last post where nate wrote his mtdparts and said their fully functional
