Hi Thomas, i have prepared a small rootfs (in fact initrd) image [1] with kernel, Xfbdev and Xglamo xserver and mdev (all together 5653892 Bytes) (by using Werner's scripts :). It takes about 12secs to boot from first pwr press (with qi). I have kexecboot already built in but i couldn't get it to detect the kernels on FR... any chance of altering kexecboot to work also on openmoko? cheers Petr [1] http://vanous.penguin.cz/files/om/uImage-GTA02-fastboot.bin (this image has no kexecboot, usb shell access enabled) _______________________________________________ devel mailing list devel@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
