For those who want to stick with Cacko 1.22 but also want to have a taste on pdaXrom without touching NAND or whatsoever (It's me
![]() -------------------- Firstly, for sure, you need to have Cacko 1.22 with hotfix installed: Get Cacko here Secondly, get an ext2 or ext3 formatted SD card. To obtain, simply follow this guide: Step-by-step CF/SD fdisk/formatting for newbies. Remember to unplug and plug the SD again to remount. Then, download the scripts required: Dual_C760.zip. Unzip and place them on the machine, for instance, I place all the extracted files at /home/zaurus/Documents Download the pdaXrom tarball: either pdaX-SD.tar.gz or pdaX-1.0.5-SD.tar.gz. I am not sure whether the latter is the real 1.0.5. Let's pick this one. Transfer and extract the tarball to the root of SD card. To do this, you need to have gtar installed in order to let the system understand the "p" flag to preserve permissions, the gtar package is included in Dual_C760.zip: CODE $ su # ipkg install /home/zaurus/gtar_1.13.25-1_arm.ipk # cd /mnt/card/ # gtar -zxvpf pdaX-1.0.5-SD.tar.gz Next, follow these steps: CODE # mount -o rw,remount / # mkdir /sbin/sys # cp /sbin/init /sbin/sys/init # rm /sbin/init # cp /home/zaurus/init /sbin/init # cp /home/zaurus/pivot_root /sbin/pivot_root # chmod +x /sbin/init # chmod +x /sbin/pivot_root Since there are changes on the filesystem in Cacko 1.22, line 12 in the /sbin/init script needs to be altered: CODE mount -n -r -t cramfs /boot/usr.bin /usr -o loop to CODE mount -n -r -t squashfs /boot/usr.bin /usr -o loop I also attached the modified /sbin/init script, for the sake of convenience. It's nearly the end, remount / as read-only and reboot: CODE # mount -o ro,remount / # reboot Your Zaurus should now boot into pdaXrom with SD plugged in, and boot into Cacko otherwise. When booted into pdaXrom, login as root and issue startx. -------------------- Although this guide may looks idiot, like me, I did put a hard effort on dualbooting my Z (Stu should know, Many thanks ![]()

Thanks for your guide!
I want to know where is the pivot_root located, as it does not exists in Dual_C760.zip Thanks alot QUOTE(penguinsam @ Apr 21 2005, 12:56 PM) CODE # mount -o rw,remount / # mkdir /sbin/sys # cp /sbin/init /sbin/sys/init # rm /sbin/init # cp /home/zaurus/init /sbin/init # cp /home/zaurus/pivot_root /sbin/pivot_root # chmod +x /sbin/init # chmod +x /sbin/pivot_root |
