I've submitted a comment (also calling for EOMA68 compatibility). I have
neither any hope of success nor any intention of forking out money for either
a smartphone or something from Purism, but (I believe) we might as well try
to steer this project towards something beneficial, given the
Probably. The patent system is horribly broken. Best to get rid of it. But at
least while it's around, don't use patents to create usage restrictions.
What you say is correct.
The argument against software patents used by the FSF isn't actually that
they restrict user freedom, but that they create a web of vaguely defined
'no-go' zones which make it nearly impossible to implement anything without
being at risk of a lawsuit. Patented
CalmStorm: Did you ever access Trisquel after installation?
CalmStorm, I have the same issue: After installing Trisquel on libreboot and
trying to boot I get stopped by the "error: file `/vmlinuz' not found"
message.
And I've found no way of solving it yet.
I have an 'appointment' with Leah Rowe, that she will guide me to a solution
via #libreboot
Well, I do not know much about the patent system in general. However, as far
as I understand, patents in the physical cover precise technologies,
described in precise terms, not any idea anyone has, like with software
patents. So, if I am not mistaken, it is not like hundreds of (hardware)
"dcapeletti is not talking about software"
Yes, this is why I talked of the "free world", not of "free software." The
same thing applies to free hardware. I used an OS only as an example. Usage
restrictions on hardware should not be applied for the same reason in the
free world.
Well regardless of if you trust them at all, it all leads to a waste of time
because they cannot do it even if they wanted to.

well oddly enough only two different partitions will turn on.
As far as I understand his reply, dcapeletti is not talking about software.
He is talking about patenting the hardware.
@dcapeletti: am I right?
That's just a guess, but maybe try to go in the /media folder and create a
/usr folder, then try again (you'll most likely need to be as root user to do
so).
I don't know if it's supposed to be there by default or not, I can't remember
exactly how it went for me.
Nope, nope, nope.
Don't support this at all. Librem has and deserves no respect or credibility.
"You're dead to me! ;~:"
Instead, support the Neo900-- fully free, GNU/Linux, and they clearly care
about privacy and freedom. Which Librem don't.
I don't trust Purism. All sense of trust and credibility went down the toilet
with how they handled the Librem laptops. So frankly, I'm not going to get
excited when they make the exact same promises about a phone they make as the
promises they made about the Librem laptops, and I suggest
its possible I suppose...
and yes it is an error at chrooting...
thats the step i got to before having issues and zapper is my volume name.
Is it an error while chrooting?
What is /dev/zapper?
At which step are you exactly?
Trying to mount the partitions, as in this?
mkdir /media/linux
mount /dev/main/root /media/linux
mount /dev/main/usr /media/linux/usr
mount -o bind /proc /media/linux/proc
mount -o bind /dev /media/linux/dev

"prohibit the commercial exploitation"
We shouldn't start adding usage restrictions lest we end up in a situation
where we can't use anything. Imagine an OS. "Well, this component doesn't
allow commercial use. This component doesn't allow military use. This other
component doesn't allow
Hi have tried several times to make set-up that enables me to help e.g. my
mother - whom I've successfully persuaded into using linux (for technical vs
ease-of-use reasons it's for the time being not Trisquel though).
But I just fail every time. On paper the best solution would be something
hmm ran into an error, /dev/zapper/usr /media/linux/usr
/media/linux/usr didn't work.
The software will be free, so it will not be patented.
I'm talking about patent to prohibit the commercial exploitation of the work,
ie, that a company can not manufacture the robot, except that it is for their
own use.
If a work of art material, like a robot, if it is not covered by a
It's rather straightforward once you get a bit used to the CLI.
Semi-pro tip: don't type the ROM's name every time, just type the first 2
characters, and press TAB. It will be witten for you.
I just have written an answer that the forum refused to let me publish
(access denied)...
Anyway, here it is:

If you find it let me know, hopefully it has full instructions.
my apologies as this is tough to figure out for me heh.
yes
I have no idea if it would work with a cdrom, but I guess it should work. I'm
looking for a chrooting tutorial I've posted somwhere in the forum.
Software patents should not exist. Watch and listen:
http://patentabsurdity.com/watch.html
http://dcc.ufmg.br/~lcerf/wpa.mp3
Even assuming you have no ethics, owning a software patent will not bring any
advantage. Only large companies and patent trolls have interests in patenting
software
Modify CBFS? You mean extracting grutest.cfg, modifying it and adding it
again to the ROM?
Wait, I just remembered something: it's possible to access the HDD from a
liveUSB. I can't remember how the procedure is called, but I know I've
detailed it in this forum (and did it obviously). Oh right, it('s called
chrooting, and it might be easier to troubleshoot while being logged.
how would I do that in libreboot though?
should i tell you what ls does in the grub part of the computer?
also I installed trisquel but I couldn't log into the installation due to
these errors even with what I said I knew.
Maybe try this then:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/150691/missing-vmlinuz-from-boot
error: file `/vmlinuz' not found.
Good, then when booting manually, you get an error about vmlinuz, right? What
does it say exactly.
I flashed it myself and I installed trisquel myself...
I know what my logical volume is named.
essentially I know all of what you ask and still I cannot get in.
Then you need to start from here.
Did you flash Libreboot yourself?
Did you install Trisquel yourself?
You need to know how the volume group and the logical volume were named
(either by you or the person who installed Trisquel), as well as the
passphrase that allows you to decrypt the HDD.
That means reading and answering to the forum posts by email? Would my
signature appear if I don't answer from email?
oh well in that case, no it didn't work.
but, yes I have the latest libreboot and trisquel installed. and yes I am
trying to update it.
I mean by turning the computer on, failing to log in, then getting back to
the GRUB menu, pressing "c".
From there, you type :
cryptomount -a (press "enter")
set root='/lvm/yourvolumegroup-yourlogicalvolume' (press "enter")
linux /vmlinuz root=/dev/mapper/yourvolumegroup-yourlogicalvolume
when I switched to grubtest I don't remember seeing any errors...
so what needs to be done i guess?
Thanks.
Sure, why not. But how do I create a new entry?
I can edit existing articles, but that's it.
I can check...
I cannot log into my trisquel installation if that is what you mean...
what do you mean by log manually? though///
Can you log manually?
If so, do you have the vmlinuz error there as well?
Are you sure you typed it exactly the right way?
Yesterday, I was so sure I had it right, but being tired, I actually forgot a
/.
Dear, I do not speak good English and I need your help or opinion.
Imagine that you are creating a project that is innovative robotics for the
place where you live. You use free software programs to make the mechanical
design of the robot, to create electronics and control software.

I can't seem to get the vmlinuz part to work cause it says vmlinuz not
found...
I hope this guide works, gonna try it now. let you know if it works.. :)

I would agree, but, what if they are truly trying to do this...
Although I do agree with those who said they are either dishonest or
delusional. I think they are delusional personally.
google can't even get the source code from intel... so yah that sums it up.
If purism succeeds I would
good, maybe you should wiki it?
wired is always better I think, if you are interested in the subject write
"hackers wireless mouse" on searx.me and take a look at the first links.
cheers
meh..purism scambrem.yaaawn
This isn't the whole story. Android targets MIPS, ARM64, ARM, x86 and x86_64.
Therefore Replicant could in the future support these architectures too.
