I've been toying arround with uboot, meego and multiboot lately so in the proccess i lost the default kernel.
Device is still working properly but i can only boot power46.
I have tried to manually add an entry for the default kernel to multiboot but without success.
Note: I'm trying to do this ON device without using PC.
What i have done is
wget
http://repository.maemo.org/pool/mae...+0m5_armel.deb
extract the zImage with:
dpkg-deb -x kernel_2.6.28-20103103+0m5_armel.deb
Then i copy the extracted zImage to /boot and /multiboot
rename the one in /multiboot to vmilinuz-2.6.28-omap
add a corresponding .item entry in /etc/multiboot.d
Reboot the device, select the maemo-omap entry but i get kernel panic, same with pressing 0.
I am not a linux guru by any means but i think that is not the correct image format for multiboot. If so, what is the correct image format, where can i get the default kernel image for multiboot or how can i create it?
Thanks
