Thanks for your message, Lex. Okay I am now only missing "initramfs-bootmenu-image-hx4700.cpio.gz". (The startup.txt file was easy to find, but it was not set with the ".bootimage" extension to the best of my memories).
What do you want to speak about when you say "the old Angstrom download location"? I am only missing this file to make the live image. Do you still have it?

The initramfs is .. oh.. you're right - where is it? I remember that there's a cpio.gz image in the old Angstrom download location, and the startup.txt.bootimage is probably the HaRET startup file (guessing here). I'll have a look at what I wrote about it before. The following text is from my journal/diary, which I write in a MOO. This is why it's a bit 'chatty'. It's also old (it refers to the 2007 release). I've written a bit more after this. "The make-bootbundle.py script needs a kernel, initrd, script." "As far as I can tell, I need to build a new bootmanager (.exe)." "I'd use that with a filesystem loopback image. This is NOT the liveramdisk thing, which is a kernel, bootloader and compressed rootfs in one file. 'r19' images are the latest." ... "Good news: the boot bundle that I made (with make-bootbundle.py) starts, but the kernel doesn't boot." "Looks like I got the command line wrong. It also didn't log to serial console, so I need to check the startup script (passed to HaRET)." "boot bundle = special version of HaRET, kernel, initrd" "(http://osdir.com/ml/handhelds.linux.kernel/2007-01/msg00128.html)" "startup.txt.bootimage = HaRET startup, gleaned from one of the ready-made boot bundles." "(01:37) Yippee! Boot menu!" "(01:39) It's up!" "It continued to boot, and up, it is! Woo!" "It says..." "(Angstrom logo)" "The Angstrom Distribution hx4700 ttyS0" "Angstrom 2007.12-r19 hx4700 ttyS0" "hx4700 login:" "here is the command line that I used to make the boot bundle:" "./make-bootbundle.py -o initramfs-test.exe haret-0.5.exe zImage-2.6.21-hh20-r21-hx4700.bin ./initramfs-bootmenu-image-hx4700.cpio.gz ./startup.txt.bootimage" Referring to this mail: http://www.mail-archive.com/angstrom-distro-users@linuxtogo.org/msg02323.htm l ... I think that the 'startup.txt.bootimage' is the file created by the text between the 'EOF' marks - i.e. # initramfs-bootmenu HaRET script # (c) 2007 Paul Sokolovsky msgbox "Attention!"
