Re: Multiboot 0.2.5 released

Ok guys I just looked up the examples folder and it looks like the config files are ready in that directory.
I just moved one of them from the examples dir to /etc/multiboot.d/
I hope it's gonna work now lol

:)

-edit-

ok the examples do NOT work.
I'm gonna reconfigure it now brb

-edit2-

Ok I found out why it doesn't work on my phone.

ITEM_DEVICE=${EXT_CARD}p2

This line redirect to a different folder then I have NITDroid in my phone.
Gonna try to redirect it to the correct folder

Make sure that your files are in /home/user/MyDocs and then make sure that you typed the command correctly.

That should be correct as NITdroid installs on partition 2 of the SD card.

I am thinking it might possibly be the kernel version maybe????

nah that line points to mmcblk0p2 while it should be mmcblk1p2 (atleast on my phone)
Anyways I reconfigured it and it still didn't work

multiboot

I uninstalled the old multiboot without any problems, along with the power kernel files.

If you haven't fixed it yet
Type in:

Code:

sudo gainroot

apt-get install kexec-tools

After that it should work

I am guessing you are getting the error when typing

Code:

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot-extras_0.1_armel.deb

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot_0.2.5_armel.deb

In which case, move the files from documents by

Code:

sudo gainroot

mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/multiboot-extras_0.1_armel.deb /home/user/MyDocs/

mv /home/user/MyDocs/.documents/multiboot_0.2.5_armel.deb /home/user/MyDocs/

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot-extras_0.1_armel.deb

dpkg -i /home/user/MyDocs/multiboot_0.2.5_armel.deb

E: missed a bit :S
