Folks, here's something new to test. Completely rewritten bootmenu, looks a bit like the old, accepts the old config files. Very simple, but does the job.

http://downloads.nitdroid.com/Jay-c/...2.beta3.tar.gz

This will eventually go into my initfs bootloader/rescue system, so testing would be very much appreciated!

Howto install:
- copy over to the device
- cd /
- tar xzvf .../bootmenu2.beta3.tar.gz

There is a README file in /etc/bootmenu.d/. Please read it!

Key commands:

0/enter - boots OS in the flash, usually your Maemo
1..9 - items from /etc/bootmenu.d/<item>
x - poweroff
b - fallback boot (use old init script to boot maemo)
d - test/debug your own boot script /sbin/preinit_debug
s - starts a shell

Enjoy!

EDIT: beta2 uploaded 9:08pm 6/7/2010
EDIT: beta3 uploaded 4:49pm 7/7/2010
EDIT: read the README file
