TI-Nspire CX - I Need Help...
« on: March 17, 2013, 06:14:23 pm »
How do I use the linux loader 2? it crashes, i had to reset my calc... i need help... i did:

kernel image.tns (and it loaded)
boot


Then, a Lot of words in a black screen and when i reset my calc it was really slow... i reset it again and returned to normal...

And More.... WHAT THE HELL IS THE EE KEY?!!!
I cant find the EE key... what is it?

EDIT: Will Linux Loader 2 make Linux replace TI-Nspire CX OS?

The EE key is at the bottom left of the keyboard and has two capital E on it.

I'm pretty sure there's another thing you have to load before booting. (initrd.tns or something)

There is more that you need to load, quoting the readme at https://github.com/tangrs/nspire-linux-loader2 :
Code: [Select]
The bootloader is also scriptable. Create a text file containing a list of commands to be executed and change the extension to .ll2.tns, and add the following line to your /documents/ndless/ndless.cfg.tns file.
ext.ll2=linuxloader2

Then simply open your script file and the loader will execute all the commands in it. A sample one could look like this:
kernel linux/zImage.tns
initrd linux/initrd.tns
cmdline root=/dev/ram
boot

This should save a lot of typing everytime you need to boot Linux.
Either type that every time you run it, or script it like stated and you're good to go :)

Some people need a high five in the face... with a chair.

Ewww huge pic + crappy quality = bad. You should re-upload a better one.
By the way if you use RootFS on a USB drive, try plugging it when it says it's looking for it. Make sure the cable is plugged into the calc before you boot though, to have the USB controller set in host mode.

That photo, while unreadable and useless, does look kind of cool and 3D-ish.

A better title would be appreciated too.
