Re: Newbie Question on Debian Install
But back to my question: - I have tried to use the tarball Debian offered trough the Wiki, but again no luck, it hangs in early boot stage with unable to create debugfs. I think that's a normal message, but did you wait for a minute or so and it didn't disappear? If I recall correctly, booting the minimal rootfs (2012 variant) should start X so at least the message should disappear. ++ ! That message occurs every time I start the phone, regardless of system installed. Sometimes I think it has to do with the debug board, since I don't have one it shows that message...? And if it is the first boot it might show longer. My first Debian boot on the neo had a VERY minimal X running, not really even functional. You should read the link I provided in last mail, my notes on Debian install, after successful boot you can log in via SSH and install fxce or enlightenment. Brendon It could also be a combination of these, ie. some of your SD cards might be better than others for Neo, but the fdisk problem caused problems with install.sh and maybe then you didn't try the minimal rootfs on all the cards. However, the SD cards are a tricky problem on Neo and it's not about quality of the SD card as such, it's about just what the Neo happens to like or not. Please check if any of your cards are on the Newer list section of the page http://wiki.openmoko.org/index.php?title=Supported_microSD_cards - although apparently even the same product code could have different variants. My working-with-Neo-SD-cards are those TS8GUSDHC6-P3 and TS16GUSDHC6. Anyway, it might be some other problem as well. I'm using the Qi bootloader myself (for example http://sourceforge.net/projects/qtmoko/files/GTA02/). -Timo ___ Smartphones-userland mailing list Smartphones-userland@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/smartphones-userland ___ Smartphones-userland mailing list Smartphones-userland@linuxtogo.org http://lists.linuxtogo.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/smartphones-userland

Emil The suspicion - it can lay on the SD card seems to get harder I have repeated the procedure and now there is another error message: (comes many times after some initial works - also boot starts normally and crashes after couple of seconds) [xxx] EXT2-fs (mobilexx) error:ext2_lookup deleted inode referenced Also the card reader I am using hangs extremely long on safe unmount... I will order new reader and one of the recommended SD cards and start a new try ...
