problem with Helmi's vanilla rom

[straniero]

Hallo,
I downloaded the vanilla version of Helmi's rom (THANKS Helmi!) and am trying to install it on my BA.
when I run the createrom.bat file, at a certain point there is a line that says,

Make sure that the free sectors is at least 1 (0001) or ROM will never work

of course I build the rom, I install it and it does not work. it just stuck at the 4 colored stripes at the beginning.
now I suppose the problem lies in this free sector, but I can't seem to understand how should I work around it... any help pls?
I never had any problem so far with any rom installed

thanks!

Strange...i've downloaded the same version from FTP and nk.nbf already was here,so no need to run createrom.bat!

mmm I downloaded this file
Helmi_BA_AKU3.5_Kitchen__R0
from the ftp site, it's a 50 mb file with all the folders like OS, LOC, ROM, OEM...
and, there is no nk.nbf file so you have to build it by yourself. I just d/loaded this file because I want a completely clean (well, as much as possible) rom, in fact I also deleted most of the OEM programs...

and I got stuck :(

you downloaded helmi_c's AKU 3.5 vanilla rom kitchen.
I had similar problem when i tried to add packages.

i didn't have time to look into the problem, i just re-cooked the ROM as it is (plain vanilla) & it worked!

may i suggest you try cooking as it is, if it works try to remove/add packages. this just to find out that you have a working rom kitchen.

I will try this, thanks.
