Guest vache Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) Here's the last .config i used : http://shoobee.eu/upp/download.php?file=946config.zip The phone doesn't freeze, now it just always rebooting if you flash the boot.img. If i try to just boot it, it boots (no invalid image message) but not with the new kernel.3 PS : Remember to thanks disc0 for his mkbootimg.

Guest disc0 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) I discovered that the problem in the boot.img is not that freakin hash, is that stupid ramdisk created with that repack perl script.. I used the ramdisk that paul used and re-created the boot.img with it, and it worked fine. Now. need to figure out why pauls ramdisk works different from others :\ Edited February 2, 2010 by disc0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest vache Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I used the ramdisk that paul used and re-created the boot.img with it, and it worked fine. You meaned that you booted it ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disc0 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) You meaned that you booted it ? booted the old kernel (no the new) with paul's extracted ramds.cpio.gz, without recreating it.. EDIT: Ok, -rw-r--r-- 1 joao joao 192864 2010-02-02 15:11 new-ramdisk.cpio.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 joao joao 192512 2010-02-02 14:56 paul-ramdisk.cpio.gz There is more 352 bytes in the repacked ramdisk, without changinc a bit, maybe thats the problem!

Guest vache Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 Well, it should work with "fastboot -i 0x0502 flash:raw boot zImage paul-ramdisk.cpio.gz" right ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it flashes fine... EDIT: But it works too with the repacked ramdisk Edited February 2, 2010 by disc0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest solarw Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) Yes, it flashes fine... EDIT: But it works too with the repacked ramdisk you use zImage - which built from sources? or from stock boot.img?

Guest disc0 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) you use zImage - which built from sources? or from stock boot.img? Stock of corse .. But if you unpack paul's superboot and issue ./acermkbootimg --cmdline 'no_console_suspend=1 console=null' --kernel zImage --ramdisk paul-ramdisk.cpio.gz -o boot.img and fastboot-linux -i 0x0502 boot boot.img it will work to test the new kernel without flashing it, at least...

Guest CedricGatay Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 a rapid though, not tested because I can't, what's the effect of replacing console=null with console=/dev/tty[HS0|HS1|MSM2] which are present in my actual device (1.008_EMEA) ?

Guest CedricGatay Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I already tried HS0 and didn't work, but I may try the others You see what I want to try, check if we could have a console output instead of this acer logo.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest disc0 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) You see what I want to try, check if we could have a console output instead of this acer logo.... We cannot ever get rid of the first logo, the black one with only acer written because its caused by the bootloader.. What we could, if we find a way, is get rid of the second logo, the one with acer and the green droids.. But I no success so far with the working kernel... BTW, the other consoles didn't work too.

Guest CedricGatay Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 ok thanks for the explanation. Self compiled kernel does boot or are we still stuck at the acer logo ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest disc0 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) ok thanks for the explanation. Self compiled kernel does boot or are we still stuck at the acer logo ? stuck on logo, but I figured out something funny.. Compiled again the kernel with dvt setting without changing a bit and tried to boot (without flashing) and it said the boot.img was invalid, and my prior config let me at least try to boot (and then stuck at logo)... EDIT: Hum,... Deleted the logo file in the ramdisk and repacked it, and the new ramdisk was bootable with the working kernel, and now I see a ugly Android (like in the emulator) on boot process. Tried with zImage but it don't even passes the bootloader stage (keeps rebooting), with this bootloader we would not have a report of whats going on with the kernel... BTW the image was bootable because the ramdisk was smaller, so, can someone tell me how Paul repacked the same cpio.gz content in less space and worked at boot??

Guest disc0 Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 (edited) I already got some output from the new/old/whatever kernel but it reboots so fast that I cant read whats f**kin there :S Edited February 2, 2010 by disc0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest maxisma Posted February 2, 2010 Report Share Posted February 2, 2010 I already got some output from the kernel but it reboots so fast that I cant read whats f**kin there :S there must be a way to let it just hang there instead of rebooting..
