Hi, Thank you so much! That did the trick. Once I had the partitions mounted rootstock worked like a charm. Phone rebooted and is running my very own built from source version.
As for your question, can't help much right now. However, my next step is trying to make Ubuntu phone work on a Galaxy S4 so I'll be running into similar problems soon. If I get anywhere I'll let you know. Thanks again for your help! Good luck. -- David Krovich On Wed, Oct 19, 2016 at 4:56 PM, Panagiotis - Dimitris Antoniadis < eota...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > First of, this step that you say you get stuck at, takes some time...
