Re: Running Chumby8 ControlPanel on the Infocast 8" - UPDATED
A few months back rebuilt the microSD card migrating all of it to a 4Gb SD card. (IE: just copied first three partitions to a new 4GB; leaving the 4th partition to be created when the Infocast 8" boots).
I ended up just running the script and it worked fine. Initially I just renamed it to one of the hookfiles but couldn't get it to run. (IE: /mnt/storage/psp/rfs1/userhook2). I have other things starting with the first two userhook files just fine.
I can warm boot and cold boot and the new CP comes up fine without an external USB memory stick.
Yep, this script is a semi-permanent modification- no need to have it run at every boot, since it patches files in /usr/chumby/scripts the changes persist across reboots.
@anyone working on other scripts:
This script leaves a file in /psp/i8-c8mod. The file is there to tell other scripts (if it's needed) that your device is running with a different CP than stock Infocasts. The script will refuse to run a second time if this file exists (as a safeguard to prevent endless patching of the files).
@djchumby:
Is there any public place to see the changelog for the CP version for the C8 ?
Thanks!
