Booting Debian from SD-card (Was: [fso] sending pin failed)

You're being cryptic here. Please explain how you know it isn't working. Anyway, here's how I installed the Debian distribution to an 8 GB SD-card on a Freerunner (still with Om 2007.2 in the NAND flash ROM): --- begin Debian on Freerunner HOWTO --- Purpose: Install Debian on Neo Freerunner/1973 such that the default u-boot setup works and dpkg, which doesn't support vfat partitions, is still happy. Strategy: Create two partitions (vfat+ext2) but install as if we only use one partition. Manually copy the kernel image to the vfat partition after installation or upgrade of the kernel package. The details: Read the instructions from the Debian Wiki and download install.sh for your Neo: https://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnFreeRunner https://wiki.debian.org/DebianOnNeo1973 Remap the partitions for install.sh: # ln -s /dev/mmcblk0p2 /tmp/mmcblk0p1 # ln -s /dev/mmcblk0 /tmp/mmcblk0 Optionally: Verify your setup and set the system time: # SD_PART1_FS=vfat SD_DEVICE=/tmp/mmcblk0 ./install.sh testing time Partition and format your SDcard. Either do so yourself or use install.sh: # SD_PART1_FS=vfat ./install.sh partition format Run the rest of the installation. Feel free to add options as you see fit: # SINGLE_PART=true SD_DEVICE=/tmp/mmcblk0 ./install.sh mount debian apt fso configuration kernel Copy the kernel image to the vfat partition: # mount -t vfat /dev/mmcblk0p1 /media/card # cp -p /mnt/debian/boot/uImage.bin /media/card # umount /media/card Optionally: Copy your existing SSH setup: # cp -a ~root/.ssh /mnt/debian/root Unmount the Debian partition: # SINGLE_PART=true SD_DEVICE=/tmp/mmcblk0 ./install.sh unmount Clean up: # rm -f /tmp/mmcblk0 /tmp/mmcblk0p1 ./install.sh --- end Debian on Freerunner HOWTO --- -- Rask Ingemann Lambertsen Danish law requires addresses in e-mail to be logged and stored for a year ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
Re: [fso] sending pin failed
Oh and forgot, upgrade to the openmoko-10 firmware for the gsm chipset as it helps (not totally, but hey 5/10 is better than 1/10 reboots to PIN/register! :) with a number of issues, including PIN and registering with 2008.n distros, but not with gsm0710muxd unfortunately.

Re: [fso] sending pin failed
Try removing the SD card and see if that helps registering - see the wiki for the qtopia indexing problem. Also, give it a few hours and reboots for the distro to finish setting itself up, indexing etc before deciding it wont play. Also, some 8gb and above SD cards need a slower clock - search for sdclk on the wiki Try 2008.12 - I find that FSO and SHR which use the gsm0710muxd just lock up the gsm chipset and dont work - ever :( Some SIM cards just dont work at all ...

Re: [fso] sending pin failed
- please, be more specific about the errors. - what kind of sim are you using? see the wiki for a listing of known to work/not work - did you apply the gsm firmware update? ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
[fso] sending pin failed
hi, i have a freerunner for a few weeks now, but i was never able to connect to a gsm network. i tried all distributions, except qtextended, and all gave errors. currently i'm using fso, and when i boot the phone, it asks for a pin, and then it fails with the error "error while sending pin" i was also unable to boot a distribution like debian or hackable from a 8gb sd-card, but i'm not sure it is related. i hope somebody can give me some hints to get these issues fixed. greatings, tomas ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
