Title: Sharp rootfs tar file?
Post by: mike_r on March 09, 2004, 12:17:38 pm

Hi again,

For various and sundry reasons, I\'d like to roll my own ROM (for the 5500). There are several HOWTOs to guide you through it (e.g. http://www.zauruszone.farplanet.net/wiki/i...p?BuildingROMS) (http://www.zauruszone.farplanet.net/wiki/index.php?BuildingROMS)), but all mention \"rootfs-20020204.tar.gz\", which does not appear to exist anywhere (the Japanese Sharp site doesn\'t have it any longer). Anyone have a copy they could put in the Downloads area? I guess all I really need is the build.sh script and the things it calls. Thanks again for your help.

Mike

Don\'t know if this is the same one you\'re looking for, but there is one here:

BTW, Google is your friend  :wink:

Thanks doseas. That was it.

Google didn\'t come up with this site. Only a few hits at all, and those all connected back to the dead Japanese/developer sites. Since Google gave me no joy this time, I thought I\'d troll a bit and see if someone had it lying about.
