[maemo-users] 770 reboots after startup
Hi, I ran apt-get update and apt-get upgrade today. The pad rebootet suddenly during the apt setup procedure. So apt-get upgrade got interupped, I guess. The result is, that the maschine reboots right after the desktop comes up. The sudden reboot occurs so fast that I can not get any information from the xterm (top, dmsg, ...). Any ideas?

I didn't know how to fix it - so i used the flasher again - knowing that I had a reacend backup (with the backup tool). Useless! The backup tool is unable to restore the backup. Great!

There was a segmentation fault with this plugin, when i run gst-inspect. The permanent reboot was caused by upgrading maemo-launcher in my case. As a workaround I disabled the lifeguard-reset timer: flasher-2.0 --set-rd-flags=no-lifeguard-reset cheers, hermann ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

I read about it accidentally in the mailinglist someday. You get a list of possible flags when calling flasher without any flag: flasher-2.0 --set-rd-flags Possible R&D flags: no-omap-wd no-retu-wd no-lifeguard-reset serial-console no-usb-timeout hermann ___ maemo-users mailing list maemo-users@maemo.org https://maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-users

making rootfs Re: [maemo-users] 770 reboots after startup

You can workaround it by mounting root filesystem again with same flags to different place (/opt or /floppy) and then cd /floppy ; tar zcvf - . [...] or install rsync on device and rsync whole /floppy to desktop over network. This is a bit easier than making missing directories again and the result is also more like the original. I use this trick for making both rootfs and initfs customizations and so far had no problem. In 2.6 linux you _can_ mount same filesystem multiple times and it should be safe.
