I guess I also might be able to test it for you
I have a bit of time right now

If demkantor can't/won't, then I'll do it.

Edit: get an instal error:
E:Error in /sdcard/test1.zip
(status 0)
installation aborted.

file size seems large, ill try cmtd and update again, also did you sign this zip?

Edit: still the same error after cmtd, ill try and sign your zip and see if that works

yeah it appeared to be signed, still messing around with your work, ill let you know how it works with another kernel. this appears to be gingerbread correct?
also if your to keep playing with it i think it needs to be slimmed down a bit

Oi I don't have my phone right now :(
But looks like demkantor tested it :D
I'll look at the zip and see if there's anything obviously wrong though


Customize roms for phone u have is easy the most common error u get is error 6 I to lost my g1 thanks to my brother (the lover boy). That's way I need someone else to test for me.

Porting Rom from one device to another is very difficult( u must be know that already specialy when u don't have the device on which ur porting )
thanks to demkantor for testing it for me.

I looked at your updater script and theres two things I noticed
Now, I may be wrong here, because you may know more than me...but...
1)It checks for the device "sapphire"...for the dream, you'd need to check for "trout" also
2)The mounts and formats aren't right...at all...for the dream...
Look at an existing G1 rom to get the right partition numbers and all...
And you also use erase_image to erase some partitions...
I would think that the erase_image for the previous device won't work for the dream

Hmm...maybe I'll make a few fixes and upload so that demkantor can try again?
Can I?

I'm uploading mine too :p
Can I post it also ?
My fixes are quick and dirty though, just to see if it will boot
Wi-fi definitely will be broken.
Gonna take about 20 more minutes to upload
