Qtopia Not Starting
« on: April 17, 2005, 03:27:18 pm »
Hi all -

I have recently upgraded to cacko 1.22 ROM on a C860.  After working fine for the last few days, my Z is now hanging when going into init 5 Qtopia startup.  It brings up the Cacko/Qtopia screen, but then goes back to console and does a "wait 5..4..3..2..1" countdown before retrying Qtopia.  It will loop endlessly like this between Qtopia startup screen and the countdown.

However, I can boot into console, and get networking et all without the QTopia UI.  

Has anyone seen this before?  Is there anything to look for to fix this?

I thought about reflashing the ROM from SD, but even when I try this I just get an OK message in the maintaince menu (#4, SD) and no additional options nor activity instead if the usual process for flashing.  It just does not seem to want to flash.

 

C.

Well I think something in /home got hosed.  Had to re-flash; now works fine.

The prob with the flashing mentioned above is that the power point was not working, so gave the Kanji error message because it needs to be on AC!

Live & learn...
