I din'd test the last release, but the one before was faster than I would expect on a mobile like ours. You'll like it.

@ This version is the same error ;/ " Unable to handle kernel NULL pointer derefere "

I download this archive, and im copy files to my storage card, and im open to hartet.exe

I got Rhobuntu to boot but once the GUI is loaded, I can't click on the task bar because the pointer won't go down that far.

Is there anything useful about booting Ubuntu on Blackstone or is it just for fun?

For Blackstone, edit your startup.txt as follows:

set ramsize 0x10000000
set ramaddr 0x10000000
set mtype 2030
set FBDURINGBOOT 0
set KERNEL zImage
set initrd initrd.gz
set cmdline "wl1251_mac=Your_MAC_address modupdate=false recalibrate=false msmts_calib=0x9f.0x39a.0x35c.0x78 lcd.density=240 msmvkeyb_toggle=off clock-7x00.a11=500 htc_hw.force_cdma=0 msm_fb.fix_x=1 pmem.extra=1 gsensor_axis=2,1,3 pm.sleep_mode=1"
boot

Try backup the data on your memory card and format the card as fat32. Unzip the contents of the Jaunty package so that you have clean files to work with again. (no failed boots)

Edit the startup.txt as seen in my message above and change the wl1251_mac with your phone's mac address.

Copy the following into the root of your memory card:

haret.exe, initrd.gz, startup.txt, Ubuntu.img, zImage

Run haret on the phone!
I hope this works for you!

Yes it is correct that all the files should be in the root of your memory card.

It seems that Rhobuntu does not work with your memory card.

In my case, I did everything the same way that you did it and everything works. The only difference is, I am using a 4GB class 6 MicroSDHC.

Hi all,
I've got a problem, that I cannot move mouse on taskbar. I can move it through whole screen but a few mm before taskbar mouse stops

Are you sure you have a good startup.txt for blackstone? Sounds like you don't, and the calibration params don't fit your screen. Same happened to me (sorry, I can't find this settings now, but search the rhobuntu forum)
