Any thoughts?

make sure that DATA is DATA.img and SYSTEM is SYSTEM.img.. When you extract the file it's just a file, if you add the extension ".img" it will retract itself to the .img file, and then load it up. If it's an SDHC, move everything but the two files mentioned above to your mydocs or somewhere else, it's usually faster. Also, check that your default.txt is in tact.

Tried what you mentioned, even put the other files on in My Documents.

Are there steps that I am missing? Does it take a while to boot?

Do you have an active data connection? Mine freezes there if my data connection isn't active.

Wildcat...any suggestions as to my issue?

Mine starts booting fine, but then says:
[1.8457331] Kernal panic - not syncing: UFS: unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179.2)
[1.850041] Rebooting in 3 seconds....

Then it just hangs up forever.

Any thoughts?

By data connection, do you mean via my carrier? I can try with a WiFi connection, but I think the main problem is that the card can't mount. No clue as to why. Format=Fat

I have the same problem. I tried with different MicroSD cards and it still refuses to mount the SD card, and it won't even load off the internal phone memory.

Those of you who have got this working?

1. What type of SD card are you using? How is it formatted?

2. Which files did you extract? Where did you put them?

Much thanks.

SDHC 8GB Class 2, FAT
DATA, renamed to data.img, and everything else.

Everything but data and system.img in SDHC and everything else in mydocs.

Re: Linux/Android working on Titan
 
Success! For those of you having difficulty with Linux mounting your SD card, try doing a fresh format from Diskpart. Here's how:
  1. Open Command prompt and run "diskpart"
  2. select disk 1 (or whatever disk your microSD is labelled as in My Computer>Properties>Hardware>Properties>Volumes>Po pulate)
  3. clean
  4. create partition primary
  5. select partition 1
  6. active
  7. format fs=fat
  8. assign
  9. exit
