Progress
Can boot into a mainline linux kernel, but the bootloader isn't persistent so it can only boot tethered.
Booting
- Install syringe package in chroot
- Enter DFU mode (hold and with USB connected to computer)
- load openiboot
$ loadibec openiboot-ipad1g.bin
expect script for automating booting with oibc
:
#!/usr/bin/expect
spawn oibc
send "!/path/to/vmlinuz\r"
sleep 0.1
send "\r"
expect "Received file"
send "kernel \"console=tty0 PMOS_NO_OUTPUT_REDIRECT\"\r"
expect "Done: kernel"
send "!/path/to/initramfs\r"
sleep 0.1
send "\r"
expect "Received file"
send "initrd\r"
expect "Done: initrd"
send "wait_boot 15000\r"
expect "Done: boot"
- Set
console=ttySAC0
for UART console instead of framebuffer earlycon=s3c2410,0x82500000
andkeep_bootcon
may be useful too.
