This directory is to develop a way to boot Plugbox
|
||||
on Android phones (HTC for now?).
|
||||
|
||||
==== On the Phone ====
|
||||
- Any ROM, rooted
|
||||
- A big SD card - Plugbox needs at least 300MB to work nicely
|
||||
- Terminal Emulator from the Android Market
|
||||
- "adb" from the Android SDK base package
|
||||
- USB debugging mode enabled in Settings
|
||||
|
||||
==== Preparing an image ====
|
||||
|
||||
You'll need to make an ext2 image file (for now).
|
||||
Download Plugbox as a .tar.gz file,
|
||||
use dd if=/dev/zero of=plugbox.img count=10000000
|
||||
then mkfs.ext2 plugbox.img (answer yes to force it),
|
||||
mount -o loop plugbox.img ./plugboxmountfolder
|
||||
then extract the rootfs into there, without a kernel or anything.
|
||||
Unmount the image, put it in the ./plugbox folder found here,
|
||||
and then copy that entire folder to /sdcard/ on your phone,
|
||||
so it looks like /sdcard/plugbox/plugbox.img, etc.
|
||||
|
||||
More soon.
