Yeah, sorry, Tinboot is definitely not very friendly in its current state. My script should have the right stuff in it though.

Hey there, I was fun fullbuild script successfully but still got "not found rootfs", any suggestion? Am I missing something or something go wrong?

When I did the very first update, I didn't make it super clear that you need to use the initrd.gz from our bootenv git for NAND (do NOT use the one from XDAndroid). I fixed that yesterday, but you may not have seen it when you were building.

We no longer use rootfs on NAND. That is a Haret only thing now.

Yeah, I already clone the bootenv repo, I think issue come from not clean build then my image still using old initrd from Haret. That thing caused it always lookup rootfs somewhere like Haret way

OK, there are a few new changes that we are making, and I'm working on updating the scripts again. For NAND, we are now compressing the modules into a Squash file system and putting that under /system/lib/modules/'uname'.sqsh. For this, we need to install squashfs-tools and make a few minor adjustments to the script

Edit: And apparently we have to use a specific version of squashfs-tools, so v4 that installs through apt-get install squashfs-tools will not work. I'll have more details later.

thought i used 3.4 squash properly, but perhaps not. anyone tell me what i'm doing wrong if i still get no modules directory? i my squash, or the init? i put the sqsh in the system and made respective directories right?

Has anyone tried building under OSX? I found specific instructions here to build the default Android sources:
Building Android on Snow Leopard | Quietly Coding
I have a Macbook for iPhone development, so I'd prefer using it instead of installing linux from scratch on my windows machine.

As a side note, this thread really belongs in the new Android Development sub-forum.

The first line is missing "git clone" at the beginning.
The second repository, xdandroid-eclair/eclair-rootfs.git cannot be found.
