Mar 27 08:57:54 <ant_work> VartiWork, hi
Mar 27 09:15:28 <VartiWork> hi ant
Mar 27 09:17:17 <VartiWork> a small update, I have now at least managed to find a procedure to boot kexec
Mar 27 09:18:23 <VartiWork> the latest kexec only boots if I first flash kexec 2.6.x, boot it and then flash 4.4.8
Mar 27 09:20:29 <VartiWork> unfortunately it only boots once. When I switch off or reset the Z (via kexec's menu), or remove the power supply + battery for 5 seconds, then I switch it on, kexec doesn't boot and the screen remains blank
Mar 27 09:21:16 <VartiWork> if I again flash 2.6.x and then again 4.4.8, it boots again, and again for only once
Mar 27 09:21:34 <VartiWork> this can be reproduced every time, I have tried many times
Mar 27 09:23:13 <VartiWork> quite strange I must say... next time I will try erasing mtd2 and 3, and flashing them with jffs2
Mar 27 09:23:59 <ant_work> strange
Mar 27 09:24:30 <VartiWork> at least now I have found a way to make it bootable, earlier it seemed to be working randomly
Mar 27 09:24:36 <VartiWork> I'll let you know
Mar 27 09:24:42 <ant_work> I'm writing the driver for mtdparts and have seen that for akita there is a lot of differences wrt oob
Mar 27 09:25:27 <ant_work> maybe there is an old bug in the kexecboot detection for akita but it has been tested long ago...
Mar 27 09:26:11 <VartiWork> ok, we'll eventually find out it then
Mar 27 09:27:47 <VartiWork> I can make a photo of the dmesg output from the kexec config menu, when kexec boots, if it can be helpful
