Blueangel and Opie

[mind]

I know that the Blueangel boots familiar and runs gpe. But has anyone tried to run Opie on it?

I'm going to do some developement work for Opie, and I'm thinking about getting a Blueangel to test stuff on.

Best regards,

I have asked this question before, but didn't get
any answer. opie should work, but i can't test it
right now.

[mind]

Thats what I think, but I can't test it either! I don't have one yet ;) damn... heh

There's a link to both Opie ang GPE rootfs images there...
If you have problems getting the the Opie image to boot, take
a look at:

Under the download section you can find the Opie rootfs image I use
to boot my Blueangel. Its a bit different from the original, but it works!

Thanks alot Mr. Mind for the help .. i would try it when i get home cause at the moment am at work.

but one question (would the commands work with my operating system? cause its not linux , its double OS "windows XP" & "Windows Vista")

i would try to use the commands in the command prompt

thanks alot for your help and patience

Well no, the format of the SD card and all that stuff needs to be done under linux.
Windows cannot create ext2 partitions on the sd-card.

You need to install linux dude ;)

:( this way i have to wait until i install the linux OS (which would take few days for backin up my data)

thanks alot for your support, cause i got a friend of mine workin with me in the same company under IT - Mobile services testing section. he advised me to get linux on my blueangel

anyways thanks alot and if you got any advise i would be thankful.

Regards,
Lestat

Opie image that's posted on handhelds.org is defective - i couldn't get opie to work.

GPE image does work, but it has too many issues to be even remotely useable. In other words, it is work in progress.

well then i guess i have to wait more :? then

thanks alot for tellin us mate[/img]
