RE: [android] new cupcake image
Here too! My last attempt at install was unsuccessful, and it's still unclear whether it was due to SD partitioning or something else. Look forward to seeing something.

it would be great, if possible, to have some hint on how to install it on a sd card... imho it's more straight forward for testing (i guess people uses the flash for main distro and sd for testing). thanks d On Sat, May 30, 2009 at 4:00 PM, RzR www.rzr.online.fr www.rzr.online.fr@ gmail.com wrote: On Sat, May 30, 2009 at 2:57 PM, Chris Samuel ch...@csamuel.org wrote: On Thu, 21 May 2009 03:29:44 am Russell Dwiggins wrote: This is with and SD card created as per: http://www.newlc.com/en/freerunner-mobile-which-support-android-cupcake hi i am the author of this page *apart* from the fact that parted tells me the 3rd partition is too large to be a FAT16 partition, so I've set it to be 256MB in size. it can probally be shrinked sure I'll test latest image soon... what would be neat is to install the whole system on the sd card and boot on it , there are some hints on om wiki Regards -- Related Obsession : http://rzr.online.fr/q/openmoko ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
