Fanosh,

Thanks that worked!
I forgot to turn off internet before starting, './initfs_flash' How should I answer and proceed?
Many thanks to you, Milhouse and Bunanson and others for all the help and support I have received. lol, Dan

Glad you've made progress - I needed to get some sleep!

Answer "no" to the Telnet prompt.

Fanoush, Milhouse, Bunanson,

I typed 'yes' to above question on network recovery because all online posts said no problem typing 'yes' to all further questions. The app asked to reboot I said 'yes' system rebooted but no menu to select? Am I ok to proceed with the following step from Bunanson?
Now we are onto step 3), partition the card
you should turn off your virtual mem, control panel>memory>Virtual mem and uncheck.
a) xterm
b) sudo gainroot
c) umount /media/mmc2
d) sfdisk -uM /dev/mmcblk0

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dan

Milhouse,

Thanks get some zzz's I got about 4 hours.
Now to finish.
See my last post should I proceed or start again?

Dan

Guys,

Question,

Is there a way to check after system reboots if I'm I have accompolish the Fanoush part of the project?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Dan

Fanoush,

Questions,

If an app shows in red pill mode how come it doesn't show in blue pill?
How do you get apps into blue pill mode that are in red pill mode?

Dan

Milhouse, Bunanson, Fanoush,

I got the boot menu prompt and selected first choice. So far so good. I checked the 'installed applications' list and it shows both wget and e2fsprogs installed.
I then go into xterm to make partitions and I get the message below. Why? Any ideas? I'm so close. Can someone walk me through this part.
Thanks, Dan

Edit:

I missed typed 'unmount', but 'umount' and forgot the space.
I'm now going to partition.

Thanks for all your help.

Dan

Milhouse and Bunanson,

I've made it to part 7 on #1 of this thread!
Thanks guys,

Dan

Fantastic news! Best of luck with your project!

Milhouse,

I had to manually create the bin file and download the nupgrade.sh and tar directly into the bin file like Fanoush showed me earlier because of those messed up files. Now I'm confused what command before "chmod +x nupgrade.sh tar" to get it to execute?

Also how do I start "Super Root" What is Super Root"?

One last Question
Is the last step just following these commands verbatam?
sudo gainroot
cd /home/user/bin
./nupgrade.sh 0
./nupgrade.sh 1
./nupgrade.sh 2
./nupgrade.sh 3
./nupgrade.sh 4
reboot
Oh and having n800 with os2008 I don't have to do steps 5, and 6?
and lastly when it reboots i'm done/

Thanks for all your help. It's been really difficult because i barely understand this process and I'm having to work through a major glitch in my setup.

Hey I will in London in about two weeks I'd like to buy you a couple of rounds of drinks for all your help if you don't mind.

Dan
