   You can't know where your data is placed. It's an SD card, not a flash
disk.

 Has anyone ever had that? I mean that an sdcard get's fubar-ed by a g-shock?

   At least in my FR, the battery sits loose enough in the battery
compartment that it does not maintain contact with the battery connector
when dropped 1.4 m onto gravel. Thus if the SD card might get fubared by
sudden removal of power, it might also get fubared by a g-shock.

 Very strange.. :S  anyway, I'll try to boot some more the the 512MB
 card.. is there a way to tell whether the FR is booting from the SD
 compared to the NAND? can I erase the NAND rootfs somehow?

   IIRC:

# flash_eraseall /dev/mtd6

(Check your /proc/partitions - you wan't the largest one.)

I can try.. but it will take some time.. need to set up an environment
for that.. I'm a Win32 developer.. and my first try of building the SHR
failed with loads of errors that I had a bad time figuring out..

do you know where I can find instructions for compiling a custom kernel
for the neo?

In addition to prototyping, Dan put together a reference card for users.
If we couldn't figure out how to explain a feature on the reference card
we would change the program. The original method for copying formulas
was too complicated so we just changed the design rather than try to
explain it.

 Yes, as I said before, NOR uBoot still can boot my neo, so, I copied it
from dmesg output.
Anyway, there I can see kernel bug(I think), and this shouldn't be happend
even if my nand have some badblocks.

Since my neo is more then 1 year old, and its falls sometimes, I think a may
have some badblocks.

As for me, I'm waiting for 2.6.31(2) upstream kernel, and then will try find
out more.

As for you, I defently don't understand why you can't boot from uSD, plz try

 drivers/input/touchscreen/s3c2410_ts.c: stylus_updown lost event!

 and *loads* of other lines repeating in a loop, I think..

If those lines are repeating then the kernel has not panicked and is runing 
with a mounted rootfs.

You can try to ssh to the phone or see if it is recognized as an cdc-ethernet 
on the pc ( if you are using shr or om2009 that means the module g-eher is 
installed and the rootfs is mounted )

 any chance of logging them? may help you guys?

Try NOR uBoot (at least I use that),
also, you shouldn't by new FR, just boot from SD is always a solution.

Also you can try reflash (kernel and rootfs) of some known to work version.

Hi..!

will try that when I'm home.. Joachim Ott also suggested I try NOR boot
and I did without success.. (with Qi installed, though)

right.. haven't tried that yet.. will give it a go tonight, too..
thanks for your input!

I flashed the versions I used before.. so known to work for me.. :)

Broken Freerunner.. CPU stall messages.. repairable?

2009-09-30 Thread Thomas Franck
Hi..

This is a re-post from the support ML.. community is way more active,
hope to get some more hints here.. :)

I can access the NOR boot menu.. and since then I have reflashed the
kernel, the system image and the boot loader..
I also disassembled the FR (for the first time!!) to see if I can find
any physical damage.. didn't manage to remove the tin caps for look
under there, though.. after re-assembling I still get the CPU stall..

--

Some moron broke my freerunner by a hard impact yesterday (EDIT: that
was last sunday.. oh, and the case is OK, in fact, everything seems
fine, except the messages)..  :(

now the bootloader (Qi) starts, and I think Kernal start booting, too..
I get messages like:

is there something I can do?  I mean, beside getting a new FR :S  :(

In addition to prototyping, Dan put together a reference card for users.
If we couldn't figure out how to explain a feature on the reference card
we would change the program. The original method for copying formulas
was too complicated so we just changed the design rather than try to
explain it.

I have same missages too, Qi can't boot my system from nand too,

BUT It successfully boots with uboot (actually not always, but boots),
there is opinion that Qi doesn't handle badblocks on nand correctly,
or smth like this.

So, try uboot.

Cool.. so there's hope.. :)

Will try uBoot when I'm home.. *sigh* just got used to Qi.. ;)

Is there a way to mark the badblocks so Qi can boot again?

Cheers!
