Thanks Well after a bit of playing around I found out that the android kernel that I am using (muromecs compiled) does not support USB networking so thats the problem... I need to find another kernel or compile it myself.... If u have a working a1200 android kernel please let me know.... About the Rootfs, at the moment I downloaded android sdks to extract the images to see what happens! If i could get android to showup completely even once from there I can start experimenting on my own... I just need suitable kernel zImage, modules and rootfs all working together properly. My boot setup is pretty good too on SD card
try minimal patching and see if it works with it. o I would diff the 2 usb drivers original openezx, maybe the old openezx you use too, and your actual android patched driver? o Compile usb with debug ( kernel will be slower ) o Learn how to place printk's to receive custom errors messages and more information. ( there are some _commented out_ samples in the whole kenrel code, and see Kernel Hacking Lesson #5: Your First printk ) Next you will see better whayt actually load succesfully and what doesn't ( init 128kb freed means the kernel found the rootfs so it is loaded, but not succesfully, as at next step, the rootfs hangs, right? )
Hi Sabrod, Can u help me load kernel and init android on A1200? I have configured my a1200 as follows: 2 partitions on SD card - 1) mmcblk0p1 i.e. fat16 - the gen-blob boot folder with menu.lst,default kernel and zimage openezx kernel 2) mmcblk0p2 i.e. ext2 - the android root file system gen-blob already flashed as second stage bootloader kernel cmdline in menu.lst for openezx kernel = mem=32M@0xA0000000 mem=16M@0xAC000000 root=/dev/mmcblk0p2 rootdelay=20 ip=192.168.0.202:192.168.0.200:192.168.0.200:255.255.255.0 Problems: 1) kernel loads successfully 2) RootFS loads successfully 3) init 128kb freed successfully 4) USB device initiation fails so no network 5) android does not load as if kernel is waiting for some command. maybe etc/init.rc but since i cannot ssh or telnet no options
