*"Booting 2008.12 from a microsd fails with "Only GTA01 hardware supported by ASoc driver" ? Option "ro" on the kernel commandline is fatal for startup of 2008.12. Check your U-Boot env if you're using that for "ro", or try adding rw to /boot/append-GTA02 if you are on SD Card and Qi."
 
what is the option for rw in Qi?

--kd8ikt

Install Qi on you NAND flash. You can still boot whatever distro you've got on internal flash using the NOR bootloader.from here So I think it should still be able to do jffs2, but I'm not sure. Bram

dmesg output

With `uname -a` = "Linux om-gta02 2.6.24 #1 PREEMPT Tue Dec 2 15:02:59 CST 2008 armv4tl unknown", dmesg outputs s3c2440 on GTA02 Revision: 0360. qi-s3c2442-master works fine on it.

How many times was this experiment done, by how many different people? For empirical stuff, more data is invariably better. Sm 22:04, 7 January 2009 (UTC)
