Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
@int_ua: chroot was a very relevant use case to me until a glib update – thank you for showing a solution (http://talk.maemo.org/showpost.php?p=1446967&postcount=589) :)
I used Arch in chroot to...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
I downloaded the contents of your Dropbox as a 104 MB zip and I'll try to mirror it as well.
Don't worry, I am in no hurry now :) I guess I'll have to give each package some time to try it out and...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
Oh hi, Skry! :-)
I just thought I would give my poor website some real usage, not sure if the 1,4G cache will even fit there (I would upload only the latest/working versions then) :-D I just...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
Cool :-)
I am (slowly) uploading the package cache to what will become a repository (http://svobodasoft.cz/n900/packages/) (once I learn how to set it up, should be easy).

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
I still have a working Arch on my N900 and I would like, someday, to make it an official (or at least recognized) platform of Arch Linux ARM.
I also dream about rebasing Maemo on top of Arch...

Re: Arch Linux ARM on N900
Yes, you can run Arch Linux (“ARM” stands here for an architecture and Arch Linux ARM is an Arch Linux flavor) in chroot as well as you can boot into it natively (through U-Boot).
Personally, it...

Re: Arch Linux on N900
I don’t know if I’m insane, need to ask the right people, but theoretically the kernel-power patches could be forward-ported and some magic done so closed-source modules work, right? Now this is how...

Re: uImage was not found ?
Please don’t wipe anything out. You could make sure you have a clean environment just by reinstalling u-boot, but even this is not necessary in a practical sense (there is no magic involved, we’re...

Re: Arch Linux on N900
By a chance, do you still have sources for this? I would love to test the BFQ scheduler also on my N900. If not, we could start by repackaging kernel-power to get the best from Arch and Maemo (if I...

Re: uImage was not found ?
I wonder how your partition layout looks like and what could be wrong, seems like I’m quite blind today. Would you mind running fdisk /dev/mmcblk0 and pressing 'p' to print the partition table (and...

Re: uImage was not found ?
I managed to get a little more insight in how U-Boot/BootMenu work.
To fight the issue that somehow your kernel cannot be found you can try this solution. If you have not deviated much from...

Re: uImage was not found ?
Now I’m not sure. As you see, my Arch on µSD lies in /dev/mmcblk0p1 (this path is taken by the Arch kernel from the bootloader config). In Maemo it is /dev/mmcblk1p1 for a change.
Is your Arch...
