 Not sure whether somebody was able to properly fix it or not. We (Chris and
 me) just ran into this issue and created a fix for the mount script. The
 /etc/init.d/checkroot.sh file in line 24 is the reason for the problem. It
 complains about a wrong file descriptor here: exec 90 /etc/fstab I
 removed the 2 exec lines (line 24 and line 85) and added a   /etc/fstab
 at the end of line 84.

 Hope it helps someone,
 Marek

This change works for me with Qi with the append-GTA02 file removed.

Originally append-GTA02 contained 3 chars 'rwspace'
(space was needed because Qi appends more options after the append file)

 I've just tried the image on my SD card (no qi, then, I guess), and if

Ok, I tried again (my FR's battery being depleted in the meantime),
and here's the results. My FR is using uBoot, boots nicely on the
internal flash (on which there is FSO M4.1) and used to boot nicely on
the SD card (at least with the previous milestone). I fetched both a
tarball [1] of M5 and a kernel [2]. I expanded the tarball in
/media/mmcblk0p2/ (as it is mounted on M4.1) after making sure the
said filesystem was empty. I then moved my freshly downloaded kernel
image into /media/card/uImage.bin (should be the first partition of
the SD card, IIRC).

From there, I both tried to boot the SD card from the NAND and NOR
menus, and each time it ends up being unable to write anything on the
filesystem (eventually failing to launch X), which sounds pretty
similar to the Qi problem described here.

Would anyone have an idea on how to fix that? There should be a way to
explain uBoot how to deal with this, but I don't know it yet...

Thanks.

Yes it can work, but you need root=/dev/mtdblock...

Having rootfs mount ro initially is a safety feature, it'd be sad if we
have to take it out because the rootfs can't manage doing a mount
/dev/root / -oremount,rw in the initscripts.

Isn't this just a bug in FSO MS5 and shouldn't we wait until MS5.1 gets
released?

I would rather not leave qi and have downgraded to MS4.1 again.

Yes! I had to reconfigure uboot to remove ro and add rootdelay=5 to wait
for mmcblk detection on 2.6.28 kernel.

This fixed the same problem with the last shr unstable image... as they have

Hi Petr,
Just create a textfile /boot/append-GTA02 and put whatever is needed as
kernel parameters in there - here is mine:
rw rootdelay=3 glamo_core.slow_memory=1

I have the QT on the rootfs, so I put the FSO on a uSD (I have installed the

ITS impossible to boot from the uSD, QI just seems to ignore the FSO and it
just boots to NAND kernel..

I HAVE no problems with a similar uSD (has FDOM) but only with the FSO..

It's a good guess... does mount say that it's still ro?  Normally an

Well, all logs are on volatile - which evaporates when i try to mount the

Stefan,

i understand that this is when you run system from sd card. i run
system from NAND and for that i need to edit the boot environment but
although i can boot into NOR, then set console to USB and then run
picocom /dev/ttyACM0 what i don't know about is what parameters i
have to issue with the setenv command to alter the default boot option.
The wiki only says: ...and you'll see the messages on boot. If it's
NAND right now you need to edit the default commandline in Qi for
gta02

I had tried to place kernel on my sd card and set append parameters via
append file to actually redirect it by root=/dev/mtdblock4, but the
kernel gets panicked as it cannot mount the jffs partition of
root=/dev/mtdblock4

I had flashed u-boot back but would love to use qi again as it can start
the neo on a short pwr press, has no logo and is faster...

No this isn't so regrettably, since it would make a lot more sense than
how it is.

For NAND it uses the kernel in the third NAND partition same as U-Boot
and mounts the sixth partition as rootfs same again as U-Boot would.

We'd need a jffs2 filesystem parser and to wait for the mount action to
complete to get the kernel if we did it the right way, so we do NAND for
GTA02 the compatible way.

Not sure I understood what you wanted correctly, so please don't hesitate to
ask again - but if you want to use Qi to boot from NAND the procedure is the
same as from SD-Card:

- setup your /boot directory (in NAND!) with the Qi specific files
uImage-GTA02.bin (needed), append-GTA02 (optional) and noboot-GTA02 (you
don't want that) exactly as you would for an SD-Card partition
- then power up normally
- if you have Qi set up for any of the first 3 partitions on SD-Card they
would first be booted : Therefore press AUX just after the FR vibrates once
for every partition you want to skip, then as a final resort NAND will be
tried. Or, put noboot-GTA02 to skip automatically wherever appropriate.

HTH,

Stefan

Wah my mistake... it really is glamo_core, it appears in /sys as

/sys/module/glamo_core/parameters/slow_memory

I read my wrong comment in the source and gave you advice when you
were already right, sorry about that.

It's just due to my local .config being out of date and still enabling
the Android WAKELOCKs -- the git config is actually fine already.

I've updated the build in that dir to the current HEAD with the current
config and confirmed suspend and resume is fine.

 bravo, awesome work guys.downloading a willing to take a look, I have
 some presentations this months in some universities and in one are
 very interested in dbus development :) comiing with this milestone 5
 surely will makes them happy :)

 2009/2/3 Stefan Schmidt ste...@openmoko.org:
 Hello.

 The Freesmartphone.org team is proud to present the fifth milestone release
 codenamed 'Calling All Stations'

 Coming from a GSM monitor interface going over support for up to 5 new modem
 chipsets to small and big bug fixes we reached the next release.

 If you like to know more details read them here:
 http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/OpenmokoFramework/Status_Update_6

 Special thanks for all the patches we got from the community. Keep up the 
 good
 work guys.

 The only thing that made me a bit sad is that we don't have the images for 
 EZX
 ready in time. It will come, just late.

 No more words from our side. Grab it while it's hot, have fun and happy 
 hacking.

 regards
 The FSO Team
