[2:55] <mongrelcat> I'm having trouble updating from 01.a to 01.b
[2:56] <mongrelcat> I ran the updater script on the tb and rebooted into the update environment, and everything progressed in what seemed like a normal way
[2:57] <mongrelcat> and when i went to reboot, it would show the black and white AI splash and then flash some text for a microsecond and then shut off
[2:57] <mongrelcat> the text says something about u-boot.bin, but i can't get a good look at it
[2:57] <mongrelcat> and I've run the install script from my linux laptop twice now and the same stuff happens
[2:58] <mongrelcat> has anybody had the same problem?
[3:01] * Noume (~Noone@89.204.153.98) Quit (Remote host closed the connection)
[3:54] <mongrelcat> I posted a forum thread about it here http://alwaysinnovating.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=900
[3:57] <DJWillis> mongrelcat: can you tell us if you have a uboot.bin on the root of your SD? (I assume you do as I think it's getting that far) and a uImage and boot.scr.
[3:57] <mongrelcat> yes yes no
[3:58] <mongrelcat> no boot.scr
[3:59] <mongrelcat> root@taylorh-THINK /m/F253-04CD# ls
[3:59] <mongrelcat> ai-install.tbz2* ai-ui.tbz2* mlo* u-boot.bin* uImage*
[4:00] <DJWillis> Hmmm, I am not 100% sure if AIOS uses a boot script or hardcodes what it needs into uboot. Let me check.
[4:03] <mongrelcat> i gotta go, but i will check back in later on
[4:03] <mongrelcat> bye

[7:59] * Vito89 (~quassel@gw.loccal.net) has joined #touchbook
[8:55] <topi`> does the Touch Book really come with 512MB ram? I though it was based on Beagle which only uses 256MB DRAM chips
[8:56] <MMlosh> topi`, it really does now
[8:56] <leinir> The first bunch had 256 (i've got one of those), the ones being made now have 512 :)
[8:56] <MMlosh> it's called "the progress"... meanwhile bigger modules for that slot were invented
[8:57] * drantin has one of the 256M ones as well
[8:58] * JuseH (~juseh@a91-154-248-224.elisa-laajakaista.fi) has joined #touchbook
[8:58] <topi`> oh, cool
[8:58] <topi`> I ordered my Touch Book in november. there has been no confirmation mail of any kind. what should I do?
[8:59] <topi`> and if I do something, do I get the old one with 256M or new one with 512M?
[8:59] * Aard got 256, too. but having that now is better than getting a 512mb whenever they ship next ;)
[9:00] <drantin> aren't they supposed to ship next early this month?
[9:00] * drantin could have sworn they were talking about the queue going down to 0 this month
[9:00] <topi`> the only thing I have received in my inbox is:
[9:00] <topi`> "Thank you for your pre-order. You will receive further information before we start shipping. Note that your credit card has not yet been charged
[9:00] <Aard> drantin: they already said they'd ship all orders more than once ;)
[9:01] <topi`> is it possible that they have just forgotten about my order?
[9:01] <Corsac> when did you order?
[9:01] <topi`> but I got the Invoice in my mailbox.
[9:01] <topi`> Corsac: in November
[9:01] * phcoder (~phcoder@gprs27.swisscom-mobile.ch) has joined #touchbook
[9:02] <Corsac> hmh, I don't think they forgot, but there was a large backlog at that time
[9:02] <drantin> 17:06 < gregoiregentil> I understand the request. The queue should go to zero at next batch early March
[9:02] <Corsac> you might want to mail contact@ just to ask for information
[9:02] <Aard> topi`: if they charged your credit card, ask. if they didn't, wait.
[9:02] <topi`> I guess so
[9:05] <topi`> looking at my bank account, it has not been billed
[9:38] <Martix> topi`: I ordered my TB in early November, too
[9:39] <phcoder> topi`: "If your order has not been processed yet: all orders placed before November have been processed before the end of 2009. Other orders should be processed before the end of March."
[9:39] <Martix> and it will be with 512 MB RAM
[9:40] <gregoiregentil> This is correct. It will be processed this month and it will be with 512MB without any additional cost for this batch
[9:41] <drantin> gregoiregentil: do i have any recourse other than ordering a new keyboard part for my broken hinge?
[9:41] <gregoiregentil> drantin: where are you located?
[9:41] <drantin> texas
[9:41] <gregoiregentil> Let me check

[12:02] <Mrkva> e17 is perfect for almost anything :) I really like xmonad, but tiling WM won't be for TB good

[12:06] <phcoder> mongrelcat: try removing "quiet" and adding "init=/bin/sh". Not sure how to do it in U-boot
[12:06] <mongrelcat> removing quiet where?
[12:08] <phcoder> mongrelcat: from kernel command line
[12:08] <phcoder> but as I said I'm grub guy and never touched U-boot
[12:08] <mongrelcat> i am not sure where i would find that
[12:08] <mongrelcat> and gedit can't open u-boot.bin
[12:14] <Meiz_webirc> mongrelcat: uboot bootargs are stored in /dev/mtd2 iirc.
[12:14] * merp (~merp@177.sub-75-231-65.myvzw.com) Quit (Ping timeout: 240 seconds)
[12:15] <Meiz_webirc> take a look at /usr/bin/ai/reset on your TB
[12:16] <Meiz_webirc> one of there scrips is for restoring possibly messed up uboot settings
[12:16] <Meiz_webirc> so, quiet can be removed with it
[12:17] <mongrelcat> uh
[12:18] <mongrelcat> this is the entire contents of my sd card:
[12:18] <mongrelcat> 45 MB partition: ai-install.tbz2* ai-ui.tbz2* mlo* u-boot.bin* uImage*
[12:19] <mongrelcat> 7 GB partition: lost+found .images
[12:19] <mongrelcat> .images: android.squashfs ai-os.squashfs ubuntu.squashfs
[12:20] <Meiz_webirc> Uboot settings are stored in the NAND of the main board, and must be modified from the device itself..
[12:20] <mongrelcat> oh
[12:20] <Meiz_webirc> Mrkva: the best thing about e17 is the illume keyboard (as I no longer have my keyboard part, only Touch screen tablet :)
[12:20] <mongrelcat> well that is a bit of a problem, since it won't boot
[12:21] <mongrelcat> if i put this card in it doesn't get past the bootsplash
[12:21] <Meiz_webirc> ah sorry i joined just while ago
[12:21] <Meiz_webirc> hmm
