I followed your suggestion, and now it's worse :
- It's still impossible to flash Ospack
- OZ Flashing goes complete, but when booting, it fails to start Opie, with either 3.5.2, 3.5.3 or 3.5.4rc

Any idea  ?

I tried to flash after deleting partition on my 128M Cf, recreating partition, format it in FAT 16 (type 6). Then with another CF.
Again, same diagnostic: It doesn't start flashing. Both leds only lights for 2 sec.
But I am still able to flash OZ. Why? Is it because of the different names, or because of the mapping. I tend for the second reason.
I think Ospack covers all the flash adress space, and for an unknown reason, my zaurus can't write on the whole flash, but it can write on the area covered by the OZ files.
Am I right?
If yes, is there a flash application that can runs on OZ, and that can flash an Ospack file?

Hi Sentinel,

I have a problem lookink like yours, though not exactly the same : I am unable to flash Sharp roms  (Ospack), leds light on for 2 or 3 secs, then switch off.
But I still can flash OZ roms (zImage+initrd.bin).
I run diagnostic : flash and ram is OK. When testing CF, it shows messages that disappears quickly, so I cant know if there is an error. I will try to reformat this evening (I am at work) and inform you.

Does anybody know if there is a doc, or some information about diagnostic actions : which can be destructive, and how interpret results?

Thanks

Sharp ROMs / Impossible To Flash Sharp Rom On 5500

« on: June 06, 2005, 01:26:48 am »

After trying several ROMs on a 5500 (unfortunately I don't rmind in what order) :
 Cacko, Hybrid, Sharp, Open Zaurus, It's now impossible to flash a ROM from an Ospack file, either with C+D+RESET or from Diagnostic utility.
The two leds (green+Orange) are only on during 3 or 4 seconds, then turn off.
Does anyone know what it means?

I have a problem trying to flash cacko rom (file sl5500_cacko_beta-2.4.18.zip find on ZUG) :
I first reboot whithout SD, make partition and ext2 file system.
When rebboting second time (typing exit from shell), I got the following message :

INIT: version 2.78 booting
e2fsck 1.19, 13-Jul-2000 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
ext2fs_check_if_mount:  No such file or directory while determinig whether /dev/mtdblock1 is mounted.
Pass 1: Checking inodes, blocks, and sizes

Then nothing . . .
I did all the procedure severall times (from downloading ROM image), but got allways the same behaviour . . .

I am not sure but I think I already succeed in flashing this ROM on my Zaurus.

Does anyone know what is wrong,   Zaurs, SD, ... ?

not on zaurus.com!]

Read openzaurus.org in place of zaurus.com

Hi,

I am new to Zaurus, so I apologize if this issue has already been discussed !

When trying to run packages found on ZSI (like u-bahn or qpdf), I have the following error : "undefined symbol: _7QString.shared_null"

Does it mean those packages have to be rebuilt with an SDK for OZ?
Is a library missing?

My config :
SL5500 - OZ 3.5.1

May be It would be better to upgrade to OZ 3.5.2 ?

Thanks
