Re: EOC works without the i2c-core hack.
without a root filesystem (on either an SD card or through usbnet) there won't be anything to telnet to, because the system will freeze (kernel panic) as soon as it finds out there's nothing to boot. Hang around in the IRC channel, that way it'll be easier to explain this... The E6 is in a very early stage of hacking. Because of the 18bpp framebuffer issues we're having a root-fs won't get you much further yet ... FYI: I own a Motorola Rokr E6 too, and I guess I'm the main hacker for that device here (apart from drWyrM who hacks for the A1200i, and blindly converts his hacks to E6, which he's good at, because now we have mmc and eoc support :) ) This is the current state of development for E6: http://flickr.com/photos/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/1429701714/in/set-72157601937248365/ Ciao, Luit On 9/26/07, Vipin Rathor [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: hi all, Finally i'm able to boot my e6 with the latest image provided by drwyrm [thanks a bunch!].

I'm following the openezx wiki page on how to get a shell. but the response i'm getting is connection refused.(although i'm able to ping). I don't know what is going wrong? Any thoughts/directions? Also, till now, i'm only able to boot.(no mmc etc.), so please tell me what all I can do/test with this image. Once again, thanks in advance! -Rathor

My desktop computer is gone after tonight, and it's already unplugged and taken apart. I'll get a new motherboard, processor and memory later this week or early next week. Anyway, as you can see on that picture, the driver isn't perfect yet... I don't know if that's because of the fb or the X configuration. I'll send it to you as soon as I can though... Ciao, Luit

Hi all,
Motivated by http://purl.rikers.org/%23openezx/20070926.html.gz i
decided to take a better look at
https://opensource.motorola.com/sf/go/projects.rokrz6/frs.rokrz6.r60_g_80_31_15r
This MAGX looks very promising and highly hackable.
2.6 based kernel[1], bootloader sourcecode[2], fragments of the
motorola build system[3], mux driver[4]
Code looks better than ezx code, there is more, but still few
documentation, and all the code is released with GPL or BSD licenses.
Looks good?? Well, the bootloader is just a secondary bootloader,
responsible only for loading linux, it takes a struct BOOT_INFO from the
primary bootloader:
typedef struct
{
UINT32 boot_info_version;
UINT32 boot_info_barker;
UINT32 powerup_reason;
UINT32 kernel_config_address;
UINT32 kernel_config_size;
UINT32 kernel_address;
UINT32 kernel_size;
UINT32 os_loader_load_address;
UINT32 ipu_buffer_address;
UINT32 is_ipu_initialized;
UINT32 gpu_context;
UINT32 mbm_version;
UINT32 mbm_loader_version;
UINT32 usb_firmware_address;
UINT32 usb_firmware_size;
UINT32 boardid;
UINT32 flat_dev_tree_address;
UINT32 ram_disk_start_address;
UINT32 ram_disk_size;
UINT32 flashing_completed;
UINT8 logo_version[MOT_LOGO_VERSION_SIZE];
UINT16 memory_type;
UINT16 battery_status_at_boot;
UINT32 boot_frequency;
} BOOT_INFO;
As there is no source code for MBM (the primary bootloader) and surely
they will not allow easy access to overwrite the BOOT_INFO struct from
within MBM, writing a boot_usb that works on MAGX will be a hard task. :(
