Hi,
I want to compile the kernel for my Oneplus One. I know that there is
already a working kernel but I wanted to try it by myself. I'm using
the official cyanogenmod sources with patches of the working kernel.
My problem is that neither the screen is working or that I can use adb
to connect

I agree this is not clear for me too.
I notice some differences betwen using ubuntu dir and system.img in the
structure of files and even if it is more simple to use dir ubuntu it is
quite difficult to understand how system.img must be.
According to touch script in build kernel they are some

I'm not sure if this is still true, but a few weeks ago porters were
recommended to just use the old cdimage-style flipped model. It means to
just have the extractes rootfs files in /data/ubuntu and the Android
system.img copied in there, which happens automatically when
Ah yes.
The problem is that if the 2 ways are too differents you can make lot of
effort porting to old model and realize that isn't working in new model and
to have a real port you need to be have same as official port..
surfaceflinger is a good example you can make working with it and realize

Sorry for previous message...
Please correct my understanding of these models:
1. Old-style
a. Uses original Android init
b. Ubuntu is in container, should be in /data/ubuntu
2. New style
a. Uses Ubuntu initrd, should be in /data/system.img
b. Android is in container (should be in
How this new-style system.img can be generated?
I'm already ported phablet changes for this new-style model, but do not
know how to create system.img

Yes It is that I understand...

Hi Dmitry,
(adding back the list so others can follow and add more information)
The system.img built from the AOSP-like source tree indeed now contains
some Ubuntu components but that is ok, those are needed as the glue between
Android and the Ubuntu system.
And the image that you need to boot
One more question.
Manual Download Installation section on
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/Install mentions
a saucy-preinstalled-touch-armel+grouper.zip as a second step in this
process. In case of my own port, should it become something like
cm-10.1-20131101-UNOFFICIAL-tilapia.zip which is
Hi
you need to download that exact zip from the Ubuntu servers. It is the full
Ubuntu userland. the cm-...tilapia.zip is the Android side, same as
system.img and boot.img but packaged in a zip for easy update via the
recovery image.
So the Ubuntu side is prrebuilt for armhf and should be almost

Please correct me if I'm wrong.
That Manual Download Installation tells about 3 steps:
1. Flash boot, recovery, system images. I presume these images should

I see I need to finish porting phablet changes into recovery to make my

Hi,
while I have not tested it, I had a go at porting the recovery patches
ported to AOSP 4.2.2 in the phablet-4.2.2_r1 branch of the main
repositories and those may serve as a start for CodeAurora based trees.

Hi,
that system.img should be the one built from your CodeAurora tree and then
turned into a regular ext4 image on your build machine
$simg2img system.img new.img
$resize2fs -M new.img
In recovery mode
#mkdir a
#mount /data/system.img a
On the host
$adb push new.img
