Hello David, Thanks for the suggestion, I will write to Alan, I have a suggestion for the troubleshooting section of the porting guide. Please add information about the kernel's console parameter, similar to the one in https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Touch/ContainerArchitecture:
> People that are porting their devices to the Ubuntu Touch container model > should take into account that Ubuntus upstart is used as init system. > Upstart likes to have an actually existing device as /dev/console. Many > Android kernels do not provide this as default or even have something like > console=none > or console=ram hardcoded in their boot commandline arguments. Such > drawbacks in the kernel or commandline need to be fixed to be able to use > this model properly (here <http://paste.ubuntu.com/5939625/> is for > example a kernel patch used on the i9100 image to change the behavior of > CONFIG_CMDLINE_EXTEND ... now using this option appends the kernel cmdline > to the bootloader one instead of pre-pending, this way console=tty1 can > be handed over as the last cmdline argument and with CONFIG_VT_CONSOLE > and CONFIG_HW_CONSOLE set in the kernel config upstart is now happy). > Thank you, Vladislav 2015-03-14 6:35 GMT-04:00 David Planella <[email protected]>: > Thanks a lot ogra for the detailed instructions.
