    you mean a dual-boot loader that boots the qtopia fw from mmc/mmca1/???

    this could be done... if someone could make a boot loader, that first read TF driver and boot the selected FW... but, talking more realistic, i don't think that someone can make this work.

    i think someone has made dual-boot already.

    download keyread and keyread.sh from here
    keyread should be placed in initscripts.
    then there will be a check in am, tapisrv, apmd, emud, db and Qtopia startup/launch scripts of /ezx/local/de content - EZX services to load only in case there is EZX and alternatively Qtopia services in case there's Qtopia.

    Please address muromec for further explanations.

    ok, I agree,
    then we need to ask more experienced people to compile a short manual or a "step by step" with preconditions in order to realize this dual-boot.

    muromecs keyread looks for me not like a dual-boot,
    i think it is more like a launcher for ezx or qtopia.
    the solution to have both is more on this:
    QtopiaOnSD - qtopia-ezx - Google Code - Running Qtopia from SD card

    but, for me (ROKR E6) don't works mkdir for ext2 mount point

    Hey, i did this already

    Not to boot qtopia, but it should work for it too.

    The binary is at Index of /wyrm/gen-blob If the information on the README is not enough to get you started, then you should not use it.
