| 12:27.30 | mnemoc | suddunly got hornier about the chitech |
| 12:28.29 | mnemoc | i'll open mine today to see what did i receive |
| 12:29.42 | mnemoc | i suppose soldering a switch if it's not there shouldn't be hard |
| 12:30.12 | mnemoc | doh, ML :) |
| 13:16.40 | lkcl | well, depends on your soldering skills. it's pretty small. the pads are 0.5mm x 1mm or so. |
| 13:17.51 | mnemoc | .oO |
| 13:18.27 | mnemoc | i better hope it comes with the switch then |

| 15:49.14 | fjp | tries a first full debian install using D-I... |
| 16:04.02 | fjp | removes partitions 2 and 3 on mmcblk0 and creates a single new one |
| 16:04.23 | fjp | installing the base system... |

| 16:24.06 | fjp | installing the kernel (from alioth)... |
| 16:26.48 | mnemoc | o.o |
| 16:31.22 | fjp | flashing the kernel to nand... |
| 16:34.51 | fjp | tasksel... |
| 16:38.42 | fjp | Bah! I'm getting errors on my my nand in partition 2 |
| 16:39.47 | fjp | Ah, right. removing the external card disables the internal nand. |
| 16:39.56 | fjp | Shouldn't have done that... |
| 16:40.38 | fjp | OK. Let's make a few final changes and try again. |
| 17:04.54 | fjp | New try... |
| 17:09.15 | fjp | installing the base system... |
| 17:28.24 | fjp | installing and flashing the kernel (from alioth)... |
| 17:51.42 | SQlvpapir | fjp, success? |
| 17:52.25 | fjp | Found a bug. Was flashing the kernel incorrectly after an incomplete change in a script :-( |
| 17:53.03 | fjp | No permanent damage AFAICT |
| 17:55.08 | fjp | Starting a new try now. |
| 17:56.13 | fjp | was flashing to /dev/mmcblk0 instead of /dev/mmcblk0p1 |
| 17:56.48 | fjp | So I was trashing part of the ext2 file system on partition2 |
| 18:01.54 | fjp | runs an fsck and badblocks to check |
| 18:05.02 | fjp | Right. Installing base system again. |
| 18:06.00 | SQlvpapir | one of those 'phew' moments =) |
| 18:06.11 | fjp | Yep :-) |
| 18:24.52 | fjp | Let's see if the kernel get's flashed correctly now... |
| 18:27.19 | fjp | Looks good. |
| 18:32.40 | fjp | tasksel... |
| 18:51.24 | fjp | Full standard system installed; finishing up. |
| 18:52.20 | fjp | Looks like system clock gets updated correctly to UTC. |
| 18:53.10 | fjp | And now for the real test: boot from nand with "our" kernel and a new debian system... |
| 18:54.08 | fjp | !!!!!!!!! COMPLETE SUCCESS !!!!!!!!! |

| 22:41.31 | SQlvpapir | fjp, any specific wishes about picture of D-I on the chitech netbook? I'm going to free up a 2gb sd card tomorrow and give it a shot.. |
| 22:43.24 | SQlvpapir | oh noes, I'm out of debian stickers :( |
| 22:54.30 | fjp | SQlvpapir: Something that clearly shows the language selection screen, but also the machine as a whole. |
| 22:54.47 | fjp | Maybe at a slight angle to add a bit of perspective. |
| 22:55.20 | fjp | And a 2nd picture of the installed system with boot prompt would be nice :-) |
| 22:55.32 | fjp | s/boot/login/ |
| 22:57.53 | SQlvpapir | bleh I hate bots doing that :p |
| 22:58.20 | SQlvpapir | ack though |
| 22:59.01 | fjp | thx |
