hi,

i have booted the angstrom bootstrap images in 2 different ways now.

1: initramfs

build a cpio.gz image (IMAGE_FSTYPES = "cpio.gz" in you local.conf)
but the zImage + angstrom.cpio.gz + haret.exe + default.txt onto you sd card 
(vfat formated). and boot it. default.txt should look like this:

set GAFR(34) 1 
set GAFR(35) 1 
set GAFR(37) 1 
set GAFR(39) 2 
set GAFR(40) 2 
set GAFR(41) 2 
set GPDR(34) 0 
set GPDR(35) 0 
set GPDR(37) 0 
set GPLR(34) 1 
set GPLR(35) 1 
set GPLR(37) 1 
set GPLR(39) 1

set com "1"
set kernel "zImage-2.6.20-hh1+cvs20070224-aximx50-20070224164343"
set initrd "Angstrom-bootstrap-image-test-20070224-aximx50.rootfs.cpio.gz"
set mtype "740"
set cmdline "root=/dev/ram0 rw 
ip=10.0.0.2:10.0.0.1:10.0.0.1:255.255.255.0:axim:usb0:none 
console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0 ramdisk_size=32768 rdinit=/sbin/init 
psplash=false"
boot


2: rootfs-on-sd

this method also works with a gpe image, the other method doesn't boot gpe for 
me.

more infos are available here:
http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~zabel/magician/README

and the default.txt  is available here:
http://userpage.fu-berlin.de/~zabel/magician/default.txt

replace boot2 with boot



the angstrom gpe images boots only via the ext2-on-sd method for me.

i´ll try to build a nice working gpe image (incl. touchscreen support) and 
post it on my webspace...
