    kernel

    There are two different moage kernels, the one in your rom and the other in the package I uploaded.

      You can install using QtADB, if that did not work try what 900Supersport suggests.

      You think the hd explorer is the chance to activate my system too. Can't believe that, but I will try that tomorrow.
      Thanks Steve.

        Why are you so shure. 900Supersport said they are the same. What do you want me to do. I have a moage kernel that works in the last ext4 system rw rom.

          Re: Cube U9 GT2 And Compatible ICS Finless ROM 1.4

          To compare the kernels I used a python script to read the two kernel.img files a byte at a time and report on the first difference it finds. According to this script the kernels are identical.

            A word to the thread killer aka 900supersport.

            We are nearly complete off the topic with our rom discussion, but it is always a pleasure.
            You have to move it to a Jellybean thread for cube. If Bob finds us stumbling around in his thread...

              I packed both kernels in a zip file.

              Winmerge says they are different kernels, Oma_Odys_Loox_JB_4.1.1_v1.2.1 is 7,532,592 bytes, Moage_ext4_CWM is 7,360,560 bytes

                  I'll download and look at these tomorrow. Definitely worth trying Jdfense's row ext4 ROM but with the second kernel anyway.

                    Next round to system rw.

                    Final result from yesterday:
                    kernel --- moage Jellybean
                    boot,misc, recovery and system ---Omar jellybean 1.2.2a
                    This mix runs my tablet in ext4 system rw

                    I took the 900 system init.d in --- crash
                    Now let system init.d in and put boot rw init.d in. --- booting complete, checking rw with root explorer, file manager hd and QtADB terminal, result is no system rw only ro

                    I think that is enough for playing in and out with img files. We have to compare system and boot from oma with ours.
                    Any suggestions about the tool for comparing in linux or must I stay with meld?

                    Oma uses an older bootloader 2.14 instead of 2.28. Is there something to check?

                      Difference omar boot.img and 900 bootinitd.img


                      init.rc
                      Code:
                      # set CPU scaling range, default is 102M~1080M:
                          write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_governor interactive
                          write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_min_freq 102000
                          write /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/scaling_max_freq 10800000
                      Lines are only in omas rom, but that has nothing to do with system rw.

                      Both boot.img's have these lines

                      Code:
                      on fs
                          insmod /rk29xxnand_ko.ko
                      # mount mtd partitions
                          mount ext4 mtd@system /system ro noatime nodiratime
                          mount ext4 mtd@userdata /data noatime nodiratime nosuid nodev
                          mount ext4 mtd@cache /cache noatime nodiratime nosuid nodev
                      
                      on post-fs
                          # once everything is setup, no need to modify /
                          mount rootfs rootfs / ro remount
                      I would say, that oma's rom starts ro, but could be switched to system rw by example by root explorer. There seems to be no need to start system rw at first.

                      Oma has something added in the init.rkboard.rc to mount hdmi.

                      Thats all about differences in those boot.imgs
                      Result: The trick for switching system rw on, is not to find in boot.img


                      Next is system.img
                      There are some differences, but I found so far not the cause. There is something strange for me.
                      I have a lot of lines with the end *:dangling symlink in the root of system file. What is that?

                        Not certain re the symlinks, will look when I get home. Init.rc specifies how the file system is mounted, this can then be changed later if you have permissions (root).

                        Are the ko files identical (at a binary level)?

                          I can't say, if there are identical, because I don't know how deep meld goes. Meld find no different .ko file.

                          I thought about persmissions, too, and I found two things in our system are missed maybe in that connection:
                          First su in the \bin\asan folder, but thats not the usual place for bin\su or \xbin\su and second are two files in the \etc\firmware folder ---bcm43X9_fw.bin and bcm43X9_nvram.txt

                          And we have different busybox versions.

                            900Supersport and JDefense. Have been following your conversations with great interest, even though I don't understand much of it. All went suddenly quiet on 31 October. Have you given up on JB or are you talking somewhere else?


                            Keep up the good work.

                              JDefense has succeeded with this. He has started a new thread with the link to his ROM. I'll add a link here when I have a chance.
