Hi,
Starting with today's 20090525 build, the images are no longer livecd images, so changes will persist across reboots.
http://dev.laptop.org/~cjb/rawhide-xo/20090525/
(The sporadic "creating devices" mount hang will still be present for jffs2; there's no need to report that again.)
Thanks to Sebastian for the script to make installed images!
- Chris.

Just tried testing 20090525 on an XO-1 as a clean install (OF copy- nand of .img with .crc) but couldn't get the XO to boot afterwards. Tried multiple reboots but it always stopped pretty soon in the console at "creating devices". On closer inspection, a handful of lines up, is the error "mount: unknown filesystem type 'jffs2' which seems pretty fatal ;-)

I had it boot from the NAND exactly once, and have been seeing the same thing on all subsequent boots. However, before that, it was looking pretty good.
What I'm seeing on screen after USB initializes :

And at this point, it hangs until I power it off.

This isn't sporadic for me, it's constant. 20090525 or 20090528 images both hang on "creating devices" every boot, for me.
:(
Hi,

It always works after about three tries here. If you get time, maybe you could unpack the initrd and see if you can make a modification that gets you to win the race every time? (Doing a "modprobe jffs2" much earlier than the mount should be one example of how to win it, but it would be better to work out a way to fix the real problem.)
Thanks,

Can I just mount the img and try to do that (what about the crc?), or should I generate an image from scratch?

After another attempt it did boot. Then after a short time there was a system freeze and now I'm on the 11th unsuccessful boot :(

Hm, it would be easier if you could get it to boot once -- then you could just unpack/repack the initrd while booted.
If you have to make a new image, the following (from livecd-iso-to-xo) will get you a new CRC:
mkfs.jffs2 -n -e128KiB -r $ROOT -o newjffs.img.tmp sumtool -n -p -e 128KiB -i newjffs.img.tmp -o newjffs.img crcimg newjffs.img
(in Fedora, sumtool is in "mtd-utils" and crcimg is in "crcimg".)
Thanks,
- Chris.
