Guest erikcas Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 (edited) On ext4 now, with my Android cloned from my ext3 partition. Didn't have to untar Mosci's update again. Here's what I did: mount ext3 on my storage as /media/disk cd /media/disk sudo tar -cvpzf ../beta2.tar.gz ./ cd /media unmount /media/disk and created ext4 partition on /dev/sdb6 (in my case) mounted /dev/sdb6 as /media/disk sudo tar zxvf beta2.tar.gz -C /media/disk/ unmounted /media/disk unplugged phone and booted it. working :D !! It shure is faster! grtz Erik Edited February 21, 2011 by erikcas Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest mosci Posted February 21, 2011 Report Share Posted February 21, 2011 Maybe you should keep it for a while, maybe others will have trouble :D i'm sure about that other will have problems - but i'm not willing to teach linux-standards :D i did it just to build me a ready-to-use-tarball to compare if it works or not - and it works gimme your email - you can keep it ;-) but it will not work for a long time - just as long as the main-files not changing and we are at beta-stage ... changes can happen every day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest xxxyy Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 thats what i mean ;-) but remember that the kernel (zImage) must support ext4 otherwise the boot will end up in a kernel panic only my latest kernel (comment #95 on issue 6) will support ext4 - the original beta2-kernel (zImage) does NOT support ext4! so you need to have a zImage with ext4 support and the modules for this kernel. you can download the qwerty/qwertz package unzip it ... this will unpack a kernel (zImage) and a o2b2update.tar.gz copy the zImage next to your haret.exe then you can go again into /media/disk and do a tar -xvzpf /path/to/the/o2b2update.tar.gz/from/my/package to install needed modules to the rootfs Thanks for the Help But after applying this update the Phone starts hanging after boot in Android after opening of Lock button from screen.

Guest Vic20 Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 After updating to the latest keymappings and Ext4 compatible kernel, I followed Ericas method to backup android to a tar, create the Ext4 and copy files back to the new partition (post #453) Everything is working well. Can't say I've noticed much speed increase as yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest mosci Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 (edited) need help with the INIT fault i think the failure is in the filesystem - have you ever check the 'andy'-filesystem afterwards? there must be a reason for 'unexpected rebooting' - this never happens at my phone. what install-method did you use? which partition, which filesystem, which updates (in which order) have you ever tried another sdcard? maybe the sdcard is not ok anymore (or need a repartitioning/formatting) Edited February 22, 2011 by mosci Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Superwuppy Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 i think the failure is in the filesystem - have you ever check the 'andy'-filesystem afterwards? How ?? have you ever tried another sdcard? maybe the sdcard is not ok anymore (or need a repartitioning/formatting) Not running from the SD card ( i'ts a brand new SDHC card only 1 month old) running from MyStorage had it run EXT2 (gonna try EXT3 now) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not running from the SD card ( i'ts a brand new SDHC card only 1 month old) running from MyStorage had it run EXT2 (gonna try EXT3 now) the age of a sdcard tells nothing about his quality. ext3 will be the better choice - jounaling can help to fix fs-errors i recomend to do a sdcard-install - custom procedures can produce custom errors - which will be hard to identify Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kaspy Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 @ mosci i also sometimes get the int kernel errors, i have also to install again , is there any help . i am using ext2 partion . the latest beta 2 update . and all the 2/3 drivers and the keypad and vibration fix , also, any help dear??????????????

Guest mosci Posted February 22, 2011 Report Share Posted February 22, 2011 if we format the partition in ext3 , what would be the installation guide for that will it be same , or something extra for that there will be no difference ... the 'guide' is probably somewhere here in the forum i can't tell - because i don't need a installation-guide at all.
