but i'm using qi, and i have the kernel in the /boot directory on NAND, that should work without flashing the kernel... anyway, I will also try this On Thu, Jun 4, 2009 at 10:25 PM, Yann SLADEK wrote: > Ok my fault the problem come from me and nothing is related to Android > > I didn't notice that when flashing fs and kernel together, kernel > flashing wasn't done cause a USB reset (according to neotool) > When I flashed kernel only, everything is working great > > Sorry for disturbance >> Jan Vlug writes: >> >>> Do I understand correctly that you were not able to flash QI into NAND? >>> Maybe a Koolu bootloader is causing the strange behavior... >>> BTW do you know whether the NAND is partitioned as well? >>> >>> Maybe an experienced bootloader guy can test installing Koolu Android and >>> reverting back to SHR or >>> om2009 to investigate the issue? >>> It took me quite some experimentation, trial and error to get my phone back >>> to normal. >>> >> >> One can't easily do anything with NOR u-boot.

Re: Unable to boot on SHR or OM2009 after installing Android Beta 7
Hi Paul and Jan, I successfully flashed Qi on NAND but it doesn't changed anything at all When I try to boot directly (pressing power button), I got the koolu spashscreen directly and then got stucked When I try to boot from NOR menu (pressing AUX and power button), then choose 'Boot', I got message s saying that NAND is being reading and kernel is loading (with a final message Loading Kernel image OK) then koolu's splashscreen and got stucked I don't know where can be the problem since I flashed (in one shot, using neo tool) bootloader, fs and kernel (with no error messages) Booting without sd card into the phone doesn't change at all (same behaviour). Just for trying, doe anyone has a splashscreen ? I cannot find one on the web Regards, Yann > Jan Vlug writes: > >> Do I understand correctly that you were not able to flash QI into NAND? >> Maybe a Koolu bootloader is causing the strange behavior... >> BTW do you know whether the NAND is partitioned as well? >> >> Maybe an experienced bootloader guy can test installing Koolu Android and >> reverting back to SHR or >> om2009 to investigate the issue? >> It took me quite some experimentation, trial and error to get my phone back >> to normal. >> > > One can't easily do anything with NOR u-boot.

Re: Unable to boot on SHR or OM2009 after installing Android Beta 7
i have the exact same problem first i had the strange behaviour of having a /dev/mtdblock6 AND a /dev/mtdblock7 when booted from SD i reflashed qi and the shr-filesystem to NAND, and now i only have /dev/mtdblock6 and no /dev/mtdblock7 any more (which is good), but when i try to boot from NAND i get the koolu splashscreen and then nothing happens On Thu, Jun 4, 2009 at 3:42 PM, wrote: > Hi there list ! > > I'm facing a problem with my FreeRunner trying to install the brand new SHR > unstable release or OM2009. > > I formerly installed Android Beta 7 from Koolu packages but now when I'm > trying to flash with another distro, flash goes well but I get stucked on > boot with a koolu splashscreen and nothing else happens. > > I flashed fs and kernel images on NAND (using neotool)and I tried to flash QI > or Uboot with no more success, I got the OpenMoko splashscreen and then the > koolu one (and got stucked on it). > When I'm trying to boot from the NOR menu using 'Boot' choice, I got messages > saying that NAND is being reading and kernel is being loading and finally the > stucked Koolu splashscreen. > > I already had this problem before but it was solved by someone on a Bearstech > party in Paris, and cannot remember how it has been done. > > Regards, > > Yann > > ___ > 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

One can't easily do anything with NOR u-boot. It does its own computation of NAND partitions. If koolu has some special bootloader (i guess it's a Qi fork) just boot to NOR and replace Koolu's version with stock OM's Qi.

-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi Yann, Do I understand correctly that you were not able to flash QI into NAND? Maybe a Koolu bootloader is causing the strange behavior... BTW do you know whether the NAND is partitioned as well? Maybe an experienced bootloader guy can test installing Koolu Android and reverting back to SHR or om2009 to investigate the issue?

Unable to boot on SHR or OM2009 after installing Android Beta 7
Hi there list ! I'm facing a problem with my FreeRunner trying to install the brand new SHR unstable release or OM2009. I formerly installed Android Beta 7 from Koolu packages but now when I'm trying to flash with another distro, flash goes well but I get stucked on boot with a koolu splashscreen and nothing else happens. I flashed fs and kernel images on NAND (using neotool)and I tried to flash QI or Uboot with no more success, I got the OpenMoko splashscreen and then the koolu one (and got stucked on it). When I'm trying to boot from the NOR menu using 'Boot' choice, I got messages saying that NAND is being reading and kernel is being loading and finally the stucked Koolu splashscreen. I already had this problem before but it was solved by someone on a Bearstech party in Paris, and cannot remember how it has been done.
