thanks for your hints! using datapart=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 in the kernel cmdline seems to work for now. Adding "UA" to the partname list in the "touch" script didn't work, even though when running
part=$(find /dev -name "UA"|tail -1) > path=$(readlink -f $part) manually from an adb shell it finds the right device at /dev/block/mmcblk0p8. So it actually should work^^ I opened up the saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf.zip file and edited "saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf/saucy-preinstalled-touch-armhf/usr/share/initramfs-tools/scripts/touch", is that the right one? But as I said, using datapart= as cmdline works for now. As I'm trying to work my way through the boot process (the "touch" script) I now get passed my previous error: if [ -z "$path" ]; then > echo "initrd: Couldn't find data partition. Spawning adbd ..." > >/dev/kmsg || true > panic "Couldn't find data partition. Spawning adbd ..." > fi > And the data partition should now get mounted: echo "initrd: mounting $path" >/dev/kmsg || true # Mount the data partition to a temporary mount point mount $path /tmpmnt # Loop-mounted flipped model But I'm stuck at the samsung bootlogo again. When I reboot into recovery and look at /proc/last_kmsg I can not find the line "initrd: mounting /dev/block/mmcblk0p8" which should be there, so I don't know where the problem is at the moment. Am I looking at the right logs? thanks for your help, Patrick On Thu, Sep 12, 2013 at 11:22 PM, Florian Will <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi Patrick, > > Am 12.09.2013 22:04, schrieb Patrick Seemann: > > What is the preffered way of handling this issue? > > Not sure if this is the best way to solve the issue in your case, but > you could try to add the "datapart=/dev/whatever" kernel cmdline > parameter.
