Can some one tell me how to add both files from (post 248) to the linux.img (BY foxtrot5) that was posted a few back(post 250). I am trying to get the wifi and touch pad working when i moved the linux.img over I now have lost my wifi but gained touch pad. I have been searching how to do this and am not having much luck.

Thanks.

sorry about the misunderstanding.... u will need to use this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16363296&postcount=162 to patch on CWM to change between android and ubuntu.... my flash kit its pretty much the same as the rdnetto's one... sorry, forgot to tell sooner

and btw, that's the bootloader.bin that's needed, not the .img, i failed saying that... sorry guys...

I have no experience in compiling my own kernel. Any chance that you share the kernel you have compiled...?

Thanks for the clarification. I was able to start Ubuntu but have been unable to get firmware injection (from your batch file) to work. The error is "device not found".
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cuckoopt:
i dont know how to really work that out, since to have secure connection with the debugging on windows u will need to be synced with the asus sync but TF running ubuntu dont have anything like that (i think), but u actually can inject the firmware with that script u will just need to try it again and again and again till it actually inject the firmware

There are a few gotchas when trying the install from certain 64-bit distros.

Replace $(uname -i) with x86_64

Stumbled on this after a little Googling. Thanks to dtbaker in this thread ubuntuforums.org/archive/index.php/t-1054621.html

apt-get install libc6-i386 lib32gcc1 lib32z1 lib32stdc++6 ia32-libs

I ran this on Xubuntu live and was able to run nvflash. It's slightly annoying that it tells you that it's not found rather than it's a 32-bit app and you're running a 64-bit OS without the proper libraries installed... 2 hours later and we're back in business.

Feel free to incorporate this into the instructions and I'll delete the post.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nudnik_de:
Thx for pointing me in the right direction. Have overlooked the fact that it allready has been posted. Will try it as well.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdnetto:
I'm using it daily for taking notes with Lyx - it works quite well. I suggest using KDE instead of Gnome, as it's a little easier to use with a touch interface. (I'm using the supplied kernel, so no touchpad yet.)

Please note though that new Transformers do not work with nvflash, which means you will not be able to install Ubuntu on them. (You may be able to use CWM and boot it from a SD card, but don't quote me on that. Also, SD card is incredibly slow.) If you buy one, make sure it's not a B70 revision. Otherwise, you're going to have to wait until the Transformer 2 comes out later this year (I'd imagine that they'll want to crack the SBK on that one).

Here are some quick instructions for compiling the kernel in ubuntu. I only figured out how to do this recently, so there may be a few mistakes. If you're not at least reasonably proficient with Linux, please don't attempt this.

-download the source, cd to the directory

-install gcc-arm-linux-gnueabi, kbuild, build-essential, libncurses5-dev

-run 'zcat /proc/zconfig > .config'

-set 'CROSS_COMPILE=arm-linux-gnueabi-' in 'make menuconfig' (it's under General Settings)

-edit the Makefile (line 191) to set 'ARCH ?= arm'

-run 'make -j2' (replace 2 with the no of cores your PC has).

-cd to the folder containing zImage (I forget where it is, use find to find it), and copy it to a temporary/working directory (copy the bootloader.bin file to this folder as well)

-compile abootimg from the source (download from http://gitorious.org/ac100/abootimg, run make)

-run 'abootimg -u bootloader.bin -k zImage'

-try flashing with the modified bootloader.bin

I'll say it again: do not attempt this if you have no idea what you are doing or have never compiled anything with make before! If there's no binary available yet, it means that the patch is still

experimental

! When the kernel is unstable, the entire system is prone to crashing, so do so at your own risk.

In USB debugging mode, when I run "adb devices" while tablet is booted to Android (from Windows PC), it returns the proper TF device ID. However, when I run "adb devices" while tablet is booted to Linux, it does not. That must be why the firmware injection script does not work for me after repeated attempts.

Your Windows flash kit does a good job in every other respect so thanks again for sharing. Now i just need to get wifi working without using your firmware injection script. Any suggestions?

So guys, here i am with an updated windows flash kit, the usage its the same than the previous one, u will need to download and extract it, then put the boot.img bootloader.bin recovery.img system.img ubuntu.img inside the extraction folder and run "runme.bat". to change between OS u will need to that the kernel via CWM, please check this http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16363296&postcount=162 and finally to get the touchpad working u will need to download the attach in here http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=16595851&postcount=248 then extact it on ur home folder (inside ur TF) then run sudo dd if=linux.img of=/dev/mmcblk0p10

EDIT: Forgot to say that i ported the backup script too, so when u run the "runme.bat" u will see many option... give it a try! :D

EDIT2: So there were many errors on the flash kit... so, this is one with... less errors, none i hope...

Sorry to be dense but I'm missing part of the process. I've downloaded the files and moved ubuntu.img and the android.img's to the /images folder but I don't know where to run the script from. I guessed, and copied the files to the /Removable/MicroSD/ folder and using Script Manager tried to run flash-linux-android.sh as root. I end up with errors that it can't find ./ubuntu/abootimg and ./nvflash.

So I guess my questions are, how do I extract the flash kit and not lose the ./ hidden folder and do I run the script from the /Removable/MicroSD/ folder or somewhere else?

Thanks so much for releasing this pack and helping a noob.

you run the scripts from a linux computer (windows coming soon)
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] whiskeycoke:
I'm running Ubuntu x64, (thanks for the update btw:) So do I use adb to start the script or do I run a command locally to install over usb?

If this is more support than you'd like to provide for this release I will understand, I'm just anxious to get started with Ubuntu on the Transformer.

I think i'm missing something... can't you dual boot by the power+vol-down and then choose? What's the point of Jhinta's CWM dual boot zips?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rdnetto:
lilstevie has it working on his dev copy. Just wait a while and he'll release it.

If you use that method, you lose CWM (since CWM is effectively a very small OS). The CWM mod method lets you keep CWM (which is useful for updating Android), and lets you have as many boot options as you want. e.g. Android, Ubuntu (emmc), SD card, etc. It's also a lot more convenient to just boot into the OS you want, and you can change the default OS while one is still running (by dd-ing the blob).

I've seen different descriptions in this thread on how to compile the kernel. This is how I did it under Debian.

Install required cross-compiler:

make ARCH=arm tf101_gnulinux_defconfig
ionice -c 3 nice -n 19 make -j 2 ARCH=arm zImage

Please note that tf101_gnulinux_defconfig config target only exists in lilstevie's kernel.

Refer to my previous post. I'd recommend just waiting for lilstevie's one though, since if you mess it up or use the wrong modules the system becomes very unstable.
