Title: Angstrom Poodle Fails To Install.
Post by: Ferret-Simpson on June 17, 2007, 09:19:42 am

Tried the last few X11 releases, and none have successfully installed "Flashing error please reboot"

Currently using OZ3.5.4.2 with Angstrom's latest 2.6.20 kernel. Works good, but no sound. For obvious reasons.

It looks like there are not many people trying out Angstrom on the poodle.  I only know of hvontres.  Your testing is very welcome.  But I think it will be more likely to receive the attention it deserves if you [a href=\"http://bugs.openembedded.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=poodle]use the bug tracker[/url]

Looking at the latest images (http://www.angstrom-distribution.org/unstable/images/poodle/20070604/) I see they are all over 16MB in size.  Does the poodle have sufficient flash size?

I have tryed once or twice.
The test imagess are with bugy screen calibration.
Then I've tryed to build image by myself.
After few hours bitbake give error in compiling some package, and I gave up.
I'm neether programer nor linux guru. I have some basic knowege, but not enought to understend what went wrong.

Yasen, thank you for trying things out.  Can I encourage you to try again?  First of all, I believe the screen calibration issues have been worked out in the meantime, updated images should be available.  Second, when you run into problems with compilation, please report them in the bug tracker (http://bugs.openembedded.org).  If you drop by in IRC at #oe a lot times people will be able to fix the problem right away.

Well, the latest image at the angstrom-website is from the 5. June.
The X11 image throws a flash error too (and stops booting when the statusbar reaches something about 95%), the console image works.
