I have a 5600 and openzaurus and decided to flash to a new kernel, one of the special ones. Now when it boots, it boots into console mode. What did I do wrong?

More information. If I run /etc/init.d/opie start, nothing happens... Shall I reflash back to the prior kernel or which kernel should I be using?

Call me old fashioned, but I am pretty happy with the Sharp 3.13 ROM on my SL-5500.

Try this:
vi /etc/init.d/opie

Go down to where it reads

case $1 in
\'start\' )
cd $HOME
rm -f /etc/rc2.d/S99x # Can\'t have both running!

And add

$OPIEDIR/bin/qpe ] /dev/null 2]&1
exit

After you get done it should read like this:

case $1 in
\'start\')
cd $HOME
rm -f /etc/rc2.d/S99x # Can\'t have both running!
$OPIEDIR/bin/qpe ] /dev/null 2]&1
exit

Hope this helps.

Well, I flashed back to the original kernel that I downloaded with OZ3.3.6pre1. I could not get it to work.

Thank you for the replies.
