Hello everyone,
I'm trying to test the 242 u-boot boot-loader as suggested in a previous
thread[1].
At first I tried to flash it using the following commands:
#flash_eraseall /dev/mtd1
#nandwrite -p /dev/mtd1 u-boot_glamo242.udfu
but I encountered an mtdparts problem as described in the wiki[2].
Searching around I found a solution[3].
That solution let me unable to boot again (a menu with the correct
header and a completely useless "boot" voice appeared as I power+aux the
mobile) until I flashed (this time with dfu-util ;-)) a new version of
u-boot[4] which worked quite well.
I tried again, again with dfu-util, u-boot_glamo242.udfu, but it still
didn't work.
What I noticed:
-my u-boot_env (/dev/mtd2) was quite reach of options (there were 10 of
them);
-the tenth was (and is) always represented something like a smile;
-if I edit u-boot_env (both with [5] and [6], which is a wrapper of [5]
I think) I can't get rid of some duplicated reboot/power off voices and
of the smile.
Have you got any suggestion?
Do you know if there is some way to correct the bug discussed in [2] in
order to improve another wrapper I'm writing[7]?
Thanks
Giacomo
