I just upgraded my phone to a mytouch lg and havethis old but good HTC Dream workhorse to play with.
I had previously upgraded to the HARD SPL and was running cyanogen. But a native gnu/linux/gentoo system sounds fun and appealing. I got the sdcard filesystem setup and I have been able to boot into shr from fastboot with the shr kernal/ramdisk/fastboot image. But I would like to boot the device into shr natively without requiring a fastboot tether. I flashed the .fastboot image to the boot partition with fastboot, and rebooted. It is at this point that I have problems. The phone will sit at the tmobile splash screen for 3 or 4 minutes and then reboot. I know the sd card filesystem is correct as I can use fastboot to boot shr. I even tried flashing the .fastboot image to the recovery partition and boot with Home+Power. Same problem. 1. Is the .fastboot image the right one for flashing to rom? 2. Can this be done on an HTC Dream with the HARD SPL or do I have to unlock the bootloader fully at HTCdev (problematic as I have a t-mobile version)? 3. Has anybody else successfully booted SHR on an HTC Dream from flash rom and have any pointers/anecdotes? Ideally I want to roll up with crossdev a whole gentoo stage 3, but I want to get a native working environment with networking before I get my gentoo chroot system going.
