[   91.818725] g_multi: no symbol version for module_layout
modprobe: 'g_multi.ko': invalid module format
Because of that maintenance mode doesn't export partitions via USB (other stuff seem to be working). Can anyone confirm an issue or maybe even offer a solution?
What's the HW revision of your device?

If I specify ubiboot to use the partition with kernel + initramfs ubiboot fails while checking for existatnce of /sbin/init script since that partition doesn't contain init (Checking 2nd stage kernel init file:...). Is there any way around that?
Using command line I'm able to load pmOS with:
Code:
mount /dev/mmcblk0p5 /mnt/5 && /usr/bin/disable_pm  && kexec -l /mnt/5/vmlinuz-nokia-n9 --initrd=/mnt/5/initramfs-nokia-n9 --append=cma=24M\ debug\ ignore_loglevel\ log_buf_len=1M\ console=ttyO2\ PMOS_NO_OUTPUT_REDIRECT && kexec -e
Yes, that is also solvable of course.
When ubiboot first was designed there was no need for using separate partitions for system and kernel & initramfs, however implementing that is not too difficult.
I think it ought to be done so that widest possible set of configurations is easy to handle, I'll have to think about it a bit.

hehe, I had ignored it for a long time; only now as these new alternate OS'es start appearing it's worth continuing work on it
