reclocating stock pogo uImage and rootfs to USB
November 19, 2011 01:26PM
Hi, is there a way to relocate the stock pogo uImage and rootfs to USB and have it boot from there ? I wanted to try out optware but thought to do it non-destructively from the USB.

I made a filesystem on sda1 and dumped the uImage from mtd1 into /boot/uImage, and then copied the jffs rootfs on mtd2 into the same sda1 filesystem . Watching the activity over the serial portal, it loads and uncompresses the kernel but I don't get any further after "done. Booting the kernel". I then tried manually loading the uImage with ext2load usb 0:1 0x800000 /boot/uImage and then going to 0x800200 because I noticed it started from there when it loads from the flash, but it just gives a return code and stops.

Thanks.
