Running Android or Linux from an SD card on a RK3288 device - An easy way to dual boot

[grant2258]

Yes just use loader/misc/resource out of lollipop stock for device and everything else from wasser rom

Kinda wrong area for this post as nothing to do with linux right 😉

Missed that your trying to boot from sd. The image has to be a img file that's part of the issue getting mk902ii working in linux on SD card no complied img. You just stated had anyone manged to get wasser lollipop working. Sorry.

linda@linda-FX6831 ~/sdcard/create-sdcard $ ./create-android-sdcard update.img
bash: ./create-android-sdcard: Permission denied

scooter2014. What file system do you have on this sdcard? If it is FAT then you can not give execute permition to any file there.

[scooter2014]

Basic user skill in linux needed lol. So whats the process to get the sd card so it will take the files from the program?

well that wasnt it lol its not fat32 same message

Sorry my bad. Even if you can not change file rights on FAT devices there may be execution rights given to all files on mount.

If I were you I would try to run this script with Super User privilages. Type su in command line and see if you can be hash master .

[scooter2014]

Tried with sudo no go. Permissions issue still comes up or no directy or command. Brian hurts... Lol

[scooter2014]

I am stumped... Even tried fix in the thread debug ect.

[Gormar]

Are you completely shure that create-android-sdcard script has execute permition?

[scooter2014]

Now that may be it. How do i check that it does?

[Gormar]

Execute ls -l command and look for "x" in left column. Best if it will be for all users (last x on the right).
Example:

root@flounder:/mnt/obb/sdcard # ls -l
-rwxr-xr-x root     shell      368974 2014-12-04 09:02 RK3288Loader_uboot_V2.17.02.bin
