Re: flashing debian ends in kernel panic

there I am left with a white topbar and a black rest of the screen  
though.


that's the expected behaviour -- it's a very basic installation (as the  
"minimal" in its name already suggests).


Could you please point me to the original mail from timo. I only found  
hisimage via the openmoko wiki recent changes.

I found the solution:

cat append-GTA02 givs me
root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 rootdelay=1
so changing this to the second partions gives me a system which boots into X.
there I am left with a white topbar and a black rest of the screen though.

Could you please point me to the original mail from timo. I only found his 
image via the openmoko wiki recent changes.

thanks a lot

Hi,

did you read the hole mail from Timo?

"It expects a single partition on the MicroSD card where the tar.xz is
unpacked and a Qi bootloader."

I wonder if this is not the problem.

flashing debian ends in kernel panic

2012-03-25 Thread robin
hi 

I tried the debian image from 
http://people.debian.org/~timo/NeoFreeRunner/
Debian_NeoFreeRunner_minimalrootfs_20120321.tar.xz

but it ends directly in kernel panic not syncing. No init found.

my sdcard has a first partion of vfat type and a second one where I flashed
the image of ext3 type.

any ideas

br

robin
