At the moment, I have just the SDTV capable set here (Standard Definition TV). I managed to get the other guy's image to work properly, and even tweaked things so I can see what the device is displaying properly. However when I try for example the complete image from Stanley Garvey's site, I get the response I'd expect to see on a regular system that of a kernel crash because it could not find a mount point for the root file system. I used the DD command to write things to the SDHC card using the form of (Without quotes) "#dd if=<file-name> of=/dev/sde" and then waited a reasonable amount of time. I also tried it again adding the "bs=1M" and "bs=2M" to the command string. Is there any special, ah. magic to restoring these images to an 8Gig SDHC card? (Class 4 since that's the same type as the one that came with the device.) Incidentally I did not try the installer card image because it seems to be more with the HDTV present, and mine is waiting for an appropriate stand, ----- Gregg C Levine [email protected] "This signature fought the Time Wars, time and again." _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list [email protected] http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack _______________________________________________ ARMedslack mailing list [email protected] http://lists.armedslack.org/mailman/listinfo/armedslack
