How Do I Get My App To Install To A Card.
« on: June 09, 2005, 06:48:58 am »
I was wondering if there is a reason why my application won't install onto a SD or CF card, and will only install into the main memory when using the Sharp ROM.
(This is on a  5500)
It works fine installing into the main memory, so is there womething special I have to do in the installer?

If the files installed are symbolic links (usually libs but also input methods and applets) then the install will usually fail on SD or CF.

Also I've found that when building ipks if I use /home/QtPalmtop rather than /opt/QtPalmtop then the ipk gui installer won't install it anywhere but main memory.

hope this helps
