Yeah i just tried that and still no luck i've had some way older builds work but can't get this one!

I'm still getting the same "failed to the rootfs....." soo i can't boot! Thanks for the quick response i really appreciate it!

lol, I don't get why my previous post didn't make sense.

If you have everything at the root of the SD, do not use rel_path=. However, if you have everything - say in a folder 'andboot' off the root of the SD - then use rel_path=andboot in your startup.txt.

Hopefully that makes sense...

Hop on IRC if you have a few minutes, I think you're missing something vital. Might need to start over fresh, format the card and redownload etc.

Andboot folder is in the root correct?

Per post 1.
\Storage Card\ (no rel_path needed in startup.txt)
\Storage Card\andboot (rel_path=andboot)
\Storage Card\bubblegum (rel_path=bubblegum) you can put where you want!

All files need to be put in same place.

You were being clear and i understand the rel_whatever is the name of the folder in the SD where the files are. it just doesn't work. I'll re-format and try again! Thanks again

This looks really cool, I'll have to try it. Thanks

Teredog, what a great thread! I wish I had found this prior to me updating my TP2 to droid! I was able to find most of what's needed on XDA, but I would've saved time and headaches if I saw this first!

I have found 2-3 additional items that have made my install work great! I no longer use Windows Mobile, I'm running FRX06 24-hours/day. I'm nearly bug free, this will save me some $$$ since I'm a Sprint SERO user.

Hey, in addition to this thread I also like your avatar, you're a fan of a great team!

Maybe you have cdma=1 inside your startup.txt ? make that =0 and try again, it worked for me on the gingerbread version.


Another thing, after replacing the kernel like I was suggested now GSM signal is fine but Camera is not working. Also the GPS is crasing the OS and I have to pull out the battery.

Or just remove force_cdma, that's only useful for... CDMA devices!

I'm assuming you mean the suggestion of using kernel 1253? Of course cam doesn't work in that kernel, that kernel predates the cam code...

GPS should work fine, does for me (in Froyo)... I hope you're not trying to use GPS in Gingerbread tho. That would cause GB to crash...
