Multi-boot Diablo and Chinook
Hi all So I've been trying to get my N800 to multi-boot into an everyday Diablo and a 'clean' test install of Chinook and Diablo. I've written up my progress here: https://wiki.maemo.org/Advanced_booting and now I'm stuck. Neither the Chinook nor Diablo partitions run correctly; they both progess to about 90% (blue line on bottom of splash screen) and then reboot. I'd appreciate some assistance :) David ___ maemo-developers mailing list maemo-developers@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-developers
