The way juiceme described how to get the kernel is exactly what I have done earlier. So I am sure it works. Maybe your firmware file is corrupted (during download)? Do not know the command by heart, but something as above.

About SIP problem: I am struggling with this since the beginning.
And now I am sure it is kexec causing this. Not openmode itsellf (what I thought before, too). I flashed the open mode kernel and all problems were gone. Back to ubiboot no SIP with open mode.

And yes you may switch between stock and open mode kernel. Just make sure you create your first account under open mode.

Oh. And could you give us your hardware revision, please?

Code:

hal-device | grep hardware

--
And another Oh @juiceme

It is not only the L2fixed kernel, but any open mode kernel has this problem when started via kexec.

Danke, Peter,
I have a 1601 rev.
With ubiboot-02 and Stock PR1.3 Kernel, i could create and use SIP Account of my AVM FritzBox.

The problem with the extraction of kernel zImage from Fiasco was, that i renamed the original DFL~ File Name to firmware.bin.
:mad:

/home/user # hal-device | grep hardware
system.hardware.vendor = 'Nokia' (string)
system.hardware.product = 'board' (string)
system.hardware.uuid = '1601' (string)
system.hardware.version = '1601' (string)
system.hardware.serial = '0000000000000000' (string)
/home/user #

Actually, I just tried that, copied the firmware to another name and guess what; extraction succeeds.

Unbelievable....:o

I tryed 2 times.
with the original name: No problem
after copy the file to firmware.bin: error...

:confused:

Maybe date/time of file creation or attributes?
Renamed under Debian Linux 6 / Midnight commander...

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)

pls i need a guide to install ubiboot .. i have the file and wud it also resolve the password always prompting wen switching from NITDROID.. PLS NEED HELP ASAP....THANK U

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)

Juiceme Readme File contains all information, you need for installing and configuring ubiboot:
http://www.swagman.org/juice/ubiboot/README
Promt for Password is normal, because of openmode Nitdroid Kernel. Delete All Accounts and recreate them under OpenMode Kernel.

Good luck.

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)

You need to remove the content of the following directories
(as user) type

rm -fr .accounts/*
rm -fr .activesync/*
rm -fr .aegis/*

this will remove all accounts, then reboot and recreate your accounts.

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)

Forgive me if this has been asked before. Has anyone been able to run the ADB enabled kernel by e-yes in the NITdroid forum using this?

http://forum.nitdroid.com/index.php?...sg6693#msg6693

it doesn't seem to recognize my ubiboot.conf file properly (well, it does for the others configs, but it doesn't for that specific kernel. Am i missing something? :[

Does it attempt to boot the kernel, and then fail or does it not even try, so that you are thrown back to the menu?

Re: Introducing ubiboot N9 (multiboot OS loader)

It does not even list in the menu itself. Lemme try to take a screencap. Apologies for the crappy picture
