    <ogra_> int_ua, well, what did you loop mount ?
    <int_ua> sudo mount -o "loop,offset=75497472" -t auto ubuntu-12.04-preinstalled-desktop-armhf+omap.img /mn
    <int_ua> ogra_: ^
    <ogra_> ohm, i thought you meant when running it
    <int_ua> ogra_: doesn't it mean that the image FS is broken?
    <ogra_> might be, it doesnt stay like that since on first boot the SD gets re-partitioned and the FS gets adjusted to the SD
    <ogra_> i havent loop mounted an image in quite a while i must admit
    <int_ua> Where should I report it?
    <ogra_> (and preinstalled is dead from 12.10 on)
    <ogra_> you could report it against debian-cd i guess but dont expect it to be fixed, loop mounting the images is a corner case and arm wasnt even rebuilt for 12.04.1
    <ogra_> and as said, this image type is dead
    <int_ua> orga_: What's the proposed replacement if it's dead? Ubuntu Core?
    <ogra_> well, for omap there is still ubuntu-server
    <ogra_> beyond trhat all images are now simple live/alternate images like on x86
    <ogra_> the preinstalled hackery is gone

    Ubuntu Core 12.10 with unoobi's kernel and firmware from Maemo nicely recognizes the battery and WiFi OOTB :
    Creating a new thread...

    Update: + sound

    Also, it was my fault that uInitrd was not generated properly but I think I've found the reason.

    Please add detailed description: what options did you select, what kernel did you download, etc. I'm on IRC already.

    Not really, that thread is for 12.10, maybe sq2 selected 12.04

    successfully installed 12.04 ubuntu desktop with select directory as target !!!!
    finally it looks like my problem was my card reader.

    REVISION: last
    MICROSD: 8 Gb, class 10
    BOOTLOADER: Pali's U-Boot
    IMAGE_SOURCE: ubuntu-desktop
    FIRMWARE: meego
    dist_upgrade: 0

    no problem at boot, after logging, just the desktop background but keyboard is working (where is ALT key?)
    anyway a give a try on lubuntu.

    Fn is the alt key, but it's remapped to Fn.

    Guys, I'll repeat it again for those of you who have joined lately - you need thumb errata workaround forward-ported to kernel you use to boot, otherwise ubuntu will SIGILL every now and then
