[speakerscream]

OMG I CANT UNDERSTAND IT xD

[garth]

Is it actually operational?

Does this mean it is dual boot?

Can run any programs/applications in openmoko?

Can recieve and make calls? Thanks!

here is my experience.......

@ windows
1. using Partiton magic to format ur SD/MMC to EXT3
2. using Ext2IFS_1_10c.exe to read ur MMC/SD at windows
3. using 7-zip to extract the rootfs archive to MMC

@Linux (mandriva 2007.1)
1. make a new folder call openmoko in to the /home folder (in this case i'm using /home/andrei/openmoko)
2. copy the usb_boot @ this folder within the "zImage-2.6.21-a780-20070603144956.bin"
3. entering BL mode on to ur E680i
4. using konsole/terminal use this command .....
./boot_usb /home/zimage.bin (in this case i've used "./boot_usb /home/andrei/zImage-2.6.21-a780-20070603144956.bin
4. After execute that.... i've been entering black screen w/ tiny text (booting kernel proccess)
5. i stuck @ this condition..............i've got some message "init......
6. ONLY THAT, WHY?

3. using 7-zip to extract the rootfs archive to MMC

No extract in windows.
Extract only only LINUX.

tar -C /media/usbdisk -xf /home/rootfs...

[yoyoek1]

fine

moko starts and nothing more.

device status (openexz kernel 2.6.21):
[-] sound
[-] gsm/gprs


[-] not working

without it it is only fast dischargable device not a phone

No extract in windows.
Extract only only LINUX.

tar -C /media/usbdisk -xf /home/rootfs...

this is the only mistake that i have?

Yes,
windows does not copy symbolic reference.

[andrei_syah]

OIC, thanks for ur advice
try it now (again from the start)

[andrei_syah]

after i used the command like this from my SUSE10.2

./boot_usb /home/andrei/Documents/Openmoko/zImage-2.6.21-a780-20070603144956.bin

everything looks like okey.
my phone starting to "black w/ tiny text" again
n stuck @ Kernel Panic - not syncing: no init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
n i was waited for tooo long w/ nothing happen.

what wrong w/ this case? i make this all w/ linux, no windowz from this time.
