can you please `ls -al /etc/bootmenu.d/`?

Sure but what for?


Btw... We already figured out that backupmenu.item needs to be moved out of bootmenu.d or at least be renamed for u-boot-update to work properly. So, that's not the issue.

Oh, right.. haven't seen that. That was like 22 pages ago
Your u-boot menu looked exactly like mine when I had my problems, so I thought it was related.

Did you experienced the following issue too?

proper U-boot menu is now showing omap1-power50 and all the others, but after selecting default entry all I get is "Starting Kernel..."
and then the phone turns off

Yeah, it's not booting attached kernel (omap1) and it's not selecting power50 as default. bootmenu.item is symlinked to power50.item.
My guess is that updated dsp modules are causing the boot to fail.

I uninstalled DSP stuff but it's still the same.
Now I'm wondering why kernel images are loaded from /home/user/MyDocs/bootmenu.img.d when all kernel files are already in /boot

on a wider scope it seems to have been a suboptimal decision to reuse this directory for different unrelated subsystems like fanoush's bootmenu and uBoot bootmenu.
Terribly confusing to everybody tying to understand what's the nature of uBoot and bootmenu, and obviously even confusing uBoot tools.

I'd at least have defined a dedicated /etc/uboot-bootmenu.d/ and symlinked it to /etc/bootmenu.d/ in case I really want to do this "one dir for all" approach. Now it's probably not exactly simple to fix all this.
Usual approach to fix: tools first check for existence of /etc/uboot-bootmenu.d and fall back to /etc/bootmenu.d/ if the former doesn't exist resp isn't readable (incl symlink to a readable real dir).
Item config file has same format as Fanoush bootmenu and is stored in same folder (Multiboot package has same format too, but in folder /etc/multiboot.d/)
(I boggled and frowned on this part when I first read it, now it turns out my intuitive reaction was obviously justified)

MyDocs is a VFAT partition, which does not support Unix file permissions. This means you can ignore those errors.

Go to / and extract the archive there.
Code:
cd /
wget http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~pali/u-boot/u-boot-images_2012.04-1.tar.gz
tar -xf u-boot-images_2012.04-1.tar.gz
And all is set up.
