Sharp ROMs / Cacko Kernel For Sl-5500/5000d

« on: September 24, 2004, 01:25:23 pm »

With this kernel I should get the whole 64 MB as RAM/Main Memory, right? Well, I'm sure It was at first time I've startet system information. But now, after some installations, system information shows around 47 MB as whole RAM. Any ideas why this could be?

Unfortunately, this is an issue with this kernel (slightly wrong build configuration). It was only found a couple of weeks ago or so after the kernel was out for a while. I hope to get it fixed with the next version, but I can't tell exactly when...

Hi Maslovski,

I am using the rom everyday and an very grateful for the work you are doing for all the SL-5500/5000D users out there that cannot afford a newer model.

I have a quick question: do you have an ETA for the new version of the rom so that it can use the full 64MB ram? It wiill be of great help for me

Thanks !

Sharp ROMs / Cacko Kernel For Sl-5500/5000d

Hi,

Tried reflashing together with w initrd.bin  from  the sharp 3.13 rom (rombursted)  and no joy either.  Same result when starting.  Pinguin logo and the INIT:  version 2.7.8 booting and hard lock.

Only diference is that when the flashing process ended the two leds starting flashing together. This stopped as soon as the hard reset button was pressed.  Never saw this before and I have tried almost every rom out there....

What can I try next?  Does anyone have the 64-0 rom working on their Zs?  

Rgds, Antonio

Hi all,

I have the same problem posted here with the 60-0 zImage. Locks the Z very hard (must perform a hard reset to get it to turn off) after about 3 second when booting the new kernel.

I have been able to flash the 32-30 with no problem.

I am intersted in having the 60-0 work  with my Zaurus since I have a couple of large custom programs that could benefit from such a configuration.

My SD card has already been formatted EXT2.  

Is there anyway we can work together to resolve this? any especial procedures /configurations needed before flashing?

I will appreciate any help or guidance !

Regards,  Antonio
