Hi Juliano, I just went through this process myself last night. The first time I did a save-nand it took many minutes. Unfortunately I had to do it again since I missed a few things. The second time it took many hours. It did complete (which surprised me).
The next step, which is new since 406, is that you also have to create a .crc file. Scroll to the bottom of this page: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Customizing_NAND_images I had to get someone to build the crc for me since I didn't have a build environment. I tried to upload the crcimg program that runs on a linux machine, but I had some issues with the wiki upload. I had to give it an extension. If you have access to a linux machine you may be able to create your own crc file with this: http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Image:Crcimg.sh Tell me if it works and we can add the link directly to wiki page. If someone creates a version that can run on a mac or on windows it would be great to upload them here so those of us without build environments could create crc files for custom images Regards, Kim On 9/7/07, Juliano Bittencourt <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hi folks, > > I'm having problems using the save-nand OFW command to created a > customized version of the OS.
