Return to Manuals/Om 2009.
Om 2009 is the third version of the Linux distribution developed by Openmoko.
If you don't have Moko11 as your GSM firmware yet, you should update it: See GSM/Flashing
You can add a bind-home directory to the first partition (must be ext2 or ext3 ) of your SD card. On the Om 2009 boot it will be mounted as /home/root. This way you can reflash your phone without losing anything in your home directory (Paroli contacts and settings, maps, etc)
Make sure there isn't a bind-home directory first
ls /media/card/bind-home
If this exists you are already using bind-home, otherwise keep following the directions below and reboot after this
mv /home/root /media/card/bind-home mkdir /home/root
Also update to the latest versions of qi or uboot bootloaders The latest boot loader files are available at http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/testing/
Installing Om 2009 is simple as flashing an image. Well, that's what you need to do..
Boot AND REBOOT! The first time it boots there some problems might occur but they're gone after the second boot.
Make sure you use ext2 or ext3 as your file system on uSD. Then check this here: Paroli-developer-setup#Upgrading_Paroli_on_a_uSD_card_installation_of_OM2009 or Booting_from_SD#Prepare_the_SD_card.
