Since rootfs for Qtopia (supposedly) comes from FSO distro, maybe I
should instead use FSO repositories to opkg update qtopia distro ?...
(new ones from http://shr.bearstech.com )

And I began trying to build qtopia using trolltech's snaphot and

 It would be more practical if a rootfs package was downloadable
 directly (not only in jffs2)
 And on new releases is it possible to update only the qtopia
 directories, and the have the remaining of the rootfs updated via opkg ?

ok, now update binary released on qtopia.net alows updating without
using whole jffs2
Though maybe if there is a next version synced with 2008.8, rootfs
will need a global update, not via opkg ?
(or the coming Qtopia 4.4 will need such a rootfs manual update ?)

Re: [qtopia on freerunner] - What files do I have to download?

2008-07-17 Thread Cédric Berger
I used this method to boot qtopia from sd.

And now I have tri-boot : I added a 3rd partition on microSD for ASU
and I changed u-boot menu with menu_2 almost identical to menu_1,
except root=/dev/mmcblk0p3
(I use the same kernel partition on FAT for both qtopia and ASU.
Though at first I used 2 different uImage, in the same partition )

Anyway... when booting this way on microSD
How do you opkg upgrade ?
- it wants to update kernel on internal flash, which fails and
prevents opkg to success :
 process /usr/bin/flash_eraseall: /dev/: Is a directory postinst
script returned status 1 Nothing to be done Collected errors: ERROR:
kernel-image-2.6.24.postinst returned 1 

(I found this : http://docs.openmoko.org/trac/ticket/1344 )

- I tried to modify the U-Boot command on menu :
${mtdparts}
instead of
 ${mtdparts} ro


and then it worked : opkg could write kernel (but with warnings...)
and could finish upgrade.

Not clean though ! It shouldn't have to modify internal memory (kernel
of other distribution !)

How could we do to prevent it ?
 Is it the postinst script that must be modified ? Or can we tweak the
U-Boot command to have it write elsewhere ?
Is it possible to do a opkg upgrade  but telling it not to upgrade
kernel ? (and do it manually...)

Never mind found it here http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Bootloader

Its kinda cool, you can use a terminal emulator to conenct to the boot command 
via usb.

I'll try the workaround to fix the booting from ext3.

 I extracted the files form the .jffs2 and copied them on the microSD card.
 I then put the uImage bin in /boot

You have to put uImage.bin in a FAT partition... at least that's how
it's supposed to be when you use the default U-Boot environment. See
here:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Boot_from_sd_card

 I tried with SD card formated in ext3 and ext2.

It seems you have to use ext3 for the rootfs partition, because current
kernel builds have ext2 support only as a module (which is not yet
available before the rootfs is mounted).

Then I had the following problem: U-Boot told the kernel that the rootfs
was ext2, even if it was ext3, so the kernel couldn't mount it. I solved
that by logging in to the U-Boot console via USB and modifying the
command sequence to boot from SD so that it looks like this (I just

menu_1=Boot from microSD (FAT+ext3): setenv bootargs ${bootargs_base} 
rootfstype=ext3 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootdelay=5 ${mtdparts} ro; mmcinit; 
fatload mmc 1 0x3200 ${sd_image_name}; bootm 0x3200

Here you can also see that it expects the kernel to be on a FAT
partition (it uses the command fatload). Maybe that could be changed,
so that it reads the kernel from the ext2 or ext3 partition itself, but
I don't know which commands U-Boot supports.

HTH,
Thomas

Can I do that with the image of Qtopia you mentioned ?
I extracted the files form the .jffs2 and copied them on the microSD card.
I then put the uImage bin in /boot

But trying to boot from the freerunner on SD I only get :
Unable to read uImage.bin from mmc 1:1

Bad magic number

I tried with SD card formated in ext3 and ext2.

Was that a correct method ? What is wrong ?

Re: AW: Re: [qtopia on freerunner] - What files do I have to download?

2008-07-11 Thread Randy S.
One other thing I've noticed is that I can never get it to work by booting
from NAND. I updated u-Boot in NAND to a 20080710 version (or whatever the
latest was as of yesterday), so perhaps there's something there that's
messing it up. I don't understand why/how that would be. I just know I tried
about 5 times booting from NAND and it failed consistently. Booting into
Qtopia from NOR seems to work about 2/3 of the time.

 Have you tried re-re-booting?  I've flashed the QTopia image a couple of
 times on my GTA02 and the first time it boots after a flash, it does what
 you described (a couple of seconds on the pretty screen, then black screen,
 AUX gives ^@). I hold down Power for several seconds till it kills the
 device, then start up again. Then tapping on the screen works.

 Lorn -

 Thanks for the image for the GTA01!  I loaded it up on my phone, and it
 works like a champ without the SIM.  When I put the SIM in, it starts
 up, and then quickly goes to a black text screen.  It looks like the UI
 is crashing.  Tapping the screen does nothing, and pressing the AUX
 button shows ^@ on the screen, and the power button does nothing.

 Is this also an issue with my T-Mobile SIM?  If so, is there anything I
 can do to help get a patch so that the UI at least stays up?  (I have no
 problems writing code, or poking at the SIM a little to gather
 information.)

 Thanks again!

Dear Lorn, It would be much nicer if your files for download carried
in their name something more explict about which they are.
updated is not at all helpful, as i cant tell from that if it
happened before or after I downloaded

Also please can you supply a root.tar.gz in addition to a root.jffs2?
Obviously you can, I should have said Will you? please?
(Or is there some way i can make .jffs2 into tar.gz?)

I got the files out of that .jffs2 by following this guide:

http://wiki.openmoko.org/wiki/Userspace_root_image#Mounting_the_JFFS2_image_on_a_loop_back_.28MTD_RAM.29_device

I definitely agree that a .tar.gz would be much simpler, though. I need
the files from the rootfs because I boot Qtopia off the SD card, not
from internal flash, therefore I have to extract the files into an ext3
partition.

A positive note: I installed Qtopia on my FreeRunner a few hours ago,
and it seems to work really well. Good work, Lorn!

you need to hit the screen to keep it alive. That Qtopia has suspend

Hi Lorn

Could you also make images for NEO1973. Or is this image compatible with
GTA01 also?

That one is not compatible with gta01, although the same Qtopia should 
be and is used for both images.

I was working on that yesterday, but got sidetracked.

I should have the gta01 image up today sometime (AU time that is)

Re: AW: Re: [qtopia on freerunner] - What files do I have to download?

2008-07-10 Thread Chris Hessing
Lorn -

Thanks for the image for the GTA01!  I loaded it up on my phone, and it 
works like a champ without the SIM.  When I put the SIM in, it starts 
up, and then quickly goes to a black text screen.  It looks like the UI 
is crashing.  Tapping the screen does nothing, and pressing the AUX 
button shows ^@ on the screen, and the power button does nothing.

Is this also an issue with my T-Mobile SIM?  If so, is there anything I 
can do to help get a patch so that the UI at least stays up?  (I have no 
problems writing code, or poking at the SIM a little to gather information.)

Thanks again!

2008-07-10 Thread Randy S.
Chris,

Have you tried re-re-booting?  I've flashed the QTopia image a couple of
times on my GTA02 and the first time it boots after a flash, it does what
you described (a couple of seconds on the pretty screen, then black screen,
AUX gives ^@). I hold down Power for several seconds till it kills the
device, then start up again. Then tapping on the screen works.
