||
39 | |||
40 | Make sure you have downloaded all the required files to install Replicant: |
||
41 | * replicant_gta04_install.sh |
||
42 | * bootloader.img |
||
43 | * boot.scr |
||
44 | * boot.img |

46 | |||
47 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | To make it easier to install Replicant on GTA04, you can use the install script: replicant_gta04_install.sh. |
48 | |||
49 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | <pre> |
50 | Usage: ./replicant_gta04_install.sh [TYPE] [DRIVE] |
||
51 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | |
52 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | Arguments: |
53 | - The [TYPE] argument can either be: |
||
54 | * "install" to create an install sdcard |
||
55 | * "system" to create a system sdcard |
||
56 | - The [DRIVE] argument is the sdcard drive node and can be omitted |
||
57 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | |
58 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | Notes: |
59 | The following files must be present in the directory where you run the script: |
||
60 | * bootloader.img boot.scr boot.img (install) |
||
61 | * system.tar.bz2 (system) |
||
62 | </pre> |
||
63 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | |
64 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | h3. Creating an install sdcard |
65 | |||
66 | The install sdcard will flash the bootloader, the boot instructions and the kernel to the GTA04 NAND flash. |
||
67 | Make sure that the following files are in the directory where you run the script: @bootloader.img boot.scr boot.img@ |
||
68 | |||
69 | Process that way: |
||
70 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | <pre> |
71 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | ./replicant_gta04_install.sh install |
72 | </pre> |
||
73 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | |
74 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | If you know what the sdcard drive is, you can also specify it explicitly: |
75 | <pre> |
||
76 | ./replicant_gta04_install.sh install /dev/sde |
||
77 | 1 | Paul Kocialkowski | </pre> |
78 | |||
79 | 8 | Paul Kocialkowski | The script will then format the sdcard and copy the files. |
80 | Once it has completed with success (@Your drive is now ready to be used!@), put the sdcard in the phone and boot *while pressing the AUX button until it becomes lightened*. |
||
81 | 5 | Paul Kocialkowski | It will flash the files to the GTA04 NAND flash. |
82 | |||
83 | The AUX (top left) led indicates the status: |
||
84 | |||
85 | |_. Led color |_. Status | |
||
86 | | Orange | Flashing | |
||
87 | | Yellow | Completed | |
||
88 | | Red | Error | |
||
89 | |||
90 | If flashing failed, you might need to get a serial cable to investigate what's going on. |
||
91 | 6 | Paul Kocialkowski | |
92 | h3. Creating a system sdcard |
||
93 | |||
94 | The system sdcard holds the partitions required to hold the Replicant system files. |
||
95 | Make sure that the following files are in the directory where you run the script: @system.tar.bz2@ |
||
96 | |||
97 | Process that way: |
||
98 | <pre> |
||
99 | ./replicant_gta04_install.sh system |
||
100 | </pre> |
||
101 | |||
102 | If you know what the sdcard drive is, you can also specify it explicitly: |
||
103 | <pre> |
||
104 | ./replicant_gta04_install.sh system /dev/sde |
||
105 | </pre> |
||
106 | |||
107 | The script will then format the sdcard and copy the files. Once it has completed with success (@Your drive is now ready to be used!@), put the sdcard in the phone and boot. |
||
108 | Now you must leave the sdcard in the phone in order to boot Replicant. |
||
109 | |||
110 | The POWER (bottom right) led indicates the status: |
||
111 | |||
112 | |_. Led color |_. Status | |
||
113 | | Orange | Booting Linux | |
||
114 | | Yellow | Completed | |
||
115 | | Red | Error | |
