Meego 1.2 CE - chroot: Is it possible? Edit: Yes! It is!
 

Hello,
Is it possible to build a chroot (i.e. meego.img) image of meego 1.2?

Qole made one earlier using .ext format, but I need a .img.

I built a Meego 1.2 image (Qoles guide!) which is running on N900 and Galaxy s2!

are you sure they aren't the same thing?
Typically, an .img file is just an ext(2-4) filesystem-on-a-file; thus a .ext image would probably be the same thing with a different extension.

Can't you just convert image types? You can with VM virtual harddisk's an optical media images, so...

Sorry!
I screw up.
I made one :D

Also, yes, you can just rename qoles one.
I made a chroot using meego 1.2
Does any one want a copy?

It's just a basic/core Meego (no gui).

I'm using a bunch of hacked up (to an extent) scripts to boot on Android, but it's running.

Need to try and get a GUI running. The image I build is a 1.2CE core.

/me wants a copy. And the scripts, too! ;)

Re: Meego 1.2 CE - chroot: Is it possible? Edit: Yes! It is!
 

I will upload it now.
I need help building scripts :(
If you are willing to help, we can get a GUI/VNC running!!!!

I built it using a core package (170MB), but I am trying to build another now using full package (500MB).

Also, I will upload to dropbox now (DL size: 170mb - no gui) - says 27 minutes (slow upload).

One word - uxlaunch.

You're going to run into immense trouble as the GLESv2 drivers in the chroot does not work with the kernel we have on Maemo5. And you can't copy in the Maemo5 ones as MeeGo is hardfp.

I didn't think I would even get a prompt.
I'm happy enough just getting the prompt. It's a big achievement for me :D

We'll see how we go, if we get no where. No loss.

This link is for the basic version (core).

The way I booted it on Android was to rename to file to bt.img and use backtrack scripts (works using ubuntu scripts).
