I have CM9 by Quarx with GB kernel on my SOC Defy and multiboot 0.8. I tried to get codenameandroid (CNA) JB as my second system. When I boot into CNA (2nd system) it takes me to the setup screen without any issue, but when I press on the android logo to start the setup it says setup has crashed and again shows the android logo. I am sure the CNA zip is fine as it runs fine as primary OS. Both the roms are GB kernel.

it seems this version is not compatible with the latest cm10 in Qkernel.

i don't mean i want to boot qkernel in sdcard though it seems possile, but when i install multiboot the qkernel doesn't work in nand system.

is it a way for multiboot to be compatible?

and it seems twrp is not compatible too.
[Defy Android Development] bharaththeunique:
Cross kernel in multi boot is shaky I think. About twrp, the problem is not with multi boot, but about TLS support in latest ROMs since we gained hwa I think....we need eppy for that now...BTW maniac was trying to patch twrp in the cm7 thread I think.

Why i cant use multiboot with Quarx2k 2nd-boot custom kernel?

Froyo Red 525 xda premium
[Defy Android Development] diogo.sena:
because 2-boot is needed for custom kernel

you need to use cm10 as primary, and others roms in multiboot
[Defy Android Development] bharaththeunique:
To be clear again for everyone ...

U can use only one of 2nd boot or 2nd init...along with multiboot's second system.

Custom kernel builds will always be 2nd boot. Non custom kernel builds on nand go to 2nd init.

U cannot use custom kernel builds running from sdcard since 2nd system is not 2nd boot.

So possible combination

-->2nd init(non custom kernel build on nand) + 2nd system(secondary roms from sd without custom kernel)

-->2nd boot(custom kernel build o nand) + 2nd system(secondary roms from sd without custom kernel)

Hey all,

Just a note for reference and posterity, after dabbling with this for a day or so, I have hit upon a combination that works for me, using:

dlhxr's Image Creators, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=25118085#post25118085, joydeep1985's multiboot guide, http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=24237176#post24237176, and multiboot v0.6.1 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1364659.

I flashed Walter's kernel, 4.5.2.109-DHT-22-gingerbread-BL5.zip https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B3OovGFEtCdncDlaQjhzWVUtbFE, as recommended by Walter (note: *1 best for battery performance, for dualboot with CM7/9 GB-kernel, install Defy-4.5.2.109-DHT-22-gingerbread-BL5-kernel.zip) and joydeep1985, and used Walter's comprehensive MSGinger 4.0 http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1140839 as my nand system.

I liked the text boot selection, so after experimenting with the touchscreen beta's I went back to the consistent success I had with v0.6.1 multiboot loader.

I used Defy/Defy+ roms, I'm guessing that's a gb kernel issue, because I didn't get any non-defy+ roms to work.

So it was CM7.2 for Defy+ stable http://download.cyanogenmod.com/?device=jordan_plus, and Wajk's just released http://goo.im/devs/Wajk/Defy%20Plus/GB/ WajkIUI_multilang_2.10.27_Plus.zip, from his excellent MIUI/WIUI thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1161110.

I had the corrupted VFS issue until I used the Image Creators for the VFS, after which I did not mess with the file systems using the multiboot app, other than to observe they were healthy.

I picked up a Sandisk Ultra 32gb Class10 microSD card, and it boots almost as fast as the phone nand.

Waiting for an O/C update!

WooHoo!

PS- Caveats I noted, other than what bugs exist within the ROM(s) themselves:

For whatever reason, when I tried the 4.5.3-109-DPP-11-gingerbread-BL5 kernel, I was unable to get multiboot to function until I flashed 4.5.2.109-DHT-22-gingerbread-BL5 back, even after reflashing multiboot.

I found that the battery level was

always

reflected as 100% in the 2 multiboot roms, but accurate in the NAND rom.

I have flashed the GB batt fix and wiped stats for all three systems with no success...

[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
I´ve got the SOC too... :( , but the cam isn´t as much important for me.

So I testet MS2Ginger w/o the cam mod in the past.

Anyway, it would be nice to learn about recovery itself and how to make a different kernel boot. So if there´s time for you to give me instructions, and if there are rainy days maybe I will try. (But be careful - there isn´t a lot of know how.) Thx!

Never mind.. It was the multiboot's problem.. Re-installed it again and it installed fine but now i'm stuck with bootloop of the afore said ROM.. Miui-ICS.. Any ideas anyone?
[Defy Android Development] pcz:
Hi All.

I don't know if I understand correctly, so, please fix me. That means If I install for example ICS from Lastest Recovery menu, tham my original system/data (everything) remains without touch, so I can use 2 different rom on my phone, without loosing my original rom/settings/data?

Thx
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
That's right!

You will have installed on the internal memory the primary system, which can be updated through "Stable Recovery", and on the SDCARD you will have installed the virtual system (up-datable via Latest/Custom Recovery). You will need also to create on your card a folder (fsimages) and copy the 3 images (virtual partitions for system, data and cache) attached in the first post.

All the apps and settings will be stored separately. For additional info (like how to install and resources, etc.) please read the first post (OP) of this thread.

PS: the 2nd ROM (the virtual one) must run on the same kernel as your primary system otherwise it won boot and you will get a bootloop while loading it.
[Defy Android Development] brajesh.sharma87:
Exactly right, make sure that u flash the multiboot zip before flashing the firmware from latest recovery.

[Defy Android Development] hottracks4:
Uh.. You're saying the Miui-ICS has a different kernel? I'm not sure that's the problem..
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
I'm running on MIUI (miuiandroid version) for months now. I tried last night to install ICS as a virtual system and I was not able to fully boot it. I was stuck in a bootloop. Then I've extracted the kernel (boot.img and devtree.img) from CM7.1.1-11 and flashed it via Stable Recovery and it worked flawlessly (meaning I was able to use the ICS).

As far as I know ICS (the version ported by Epsylon3) is based on GB kernel, while the MIUI version I use has an older kernel. As the OP says the virtual system must use the same kernel as the base one, otherwise it won't work.
[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
CM7 uses Froyo-Kernel, and afaik ICS too.
[Defy Android Development] UEman:
Otherwise the cam wouldn't work for those with a green cam.
[Defy Android Development] hottracks4:
Thanks for the replies guys, but it still ain't helping.. Btw, it does get upto the lock screen and even catches the network before it reboots.. It's super fast cuz for 2-3 seconds it is working fine.. If it was a kernel problem, it wouldn't get that far... It would boot loop in the boot animation itself..

Swyped with my Defy using XDA app. ;)
[Defy Android Development] nepotu:
You are right. I've forgot about the bloody camera drivers. My Defy has green lenses but I don't use it that much. However I still believe that the kernel from CM7 latest stable release is a bit newer that the MIUIandroid one. When I first flashed ICS last night using multiboot I was getting a bootloop. After I've updated the boot.img with the one from the latest CM7 stable it worked.
[Defy Android Development] pcz:
First of all. Thanks for everybody for answers!

I installed the multibott over my wiui (so this is my real system), and than I installed cm 7.1.0-11 (as virtual system), everything went fine, but now I've got a bootloop, there is the cm 7 bootlogo, but nothin happening. I forgot to do anything? Sidz4u what, and how did you do?

Cheers
[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
CM 7.1.0-11 has got a boot issue. Simply pull battery and start again using the same way (2nd-boot). Should help and is only necessary for the first boot.
[Defy Android Development] cammel:
Please someone clear this up for mi:

if I install multiboot and use wajkiui as primary system, and then the new ICS ROM as second boot, how should I install every new update of the ICS ROM on the virtual boot partition? because every day comes out one or two nightlys of this ROM, and if I want to install them every day, how should I do that? Just wiping cache and dalvik before installing the new nightly? It overwrites previous nightly or should I do something else?

Thanks in advance!

[Defy Android Development] Gazm4n:
Just flash ICS.zip in custom/latest recovery. I never wipe caches between nightly builds (Dalvik cache is rebuild after flashing at first boot anyway) and never had problems.
[Defy Android Development] cammel:
Thanks for your help! ! in order to install ics for the first time, should I install ics.zip and then gapps zip, or only ics.zip file? Sorry but never used cm7 roms, always used MIUI so I don't really know how to install them...

Slight problem guys. If I flash multiboot v0.8 I lose the 4th clk under Cpu settings. Only way I can get it back is by flashing stock sbf.

Any other workaround?
[Defy Android Development] diogo.sena:
you wont loose the 4th clock, you just loose the ability to edit clocks/vsels trough bootmenu.

(besides, you won't have any real gain changing vsels in my opinion)

Actually, Quarx's kernel on Interactive uses almost all vsels.

BTW, how come Quarx's bundled bootmenu (which is based on touchbootmenu) supports TWRP, but multiboot 0.8 doesn't? I thought 0.8 has TLS support, as the change log says so.

Dual boot with CM10 2ndboot build - YES or NO ???

m11kkaa, diogo.sena or can someone confirm if we can achieve dual boot with CM 10 2ndboot build( 10th Oct and later builds) as primary ROM(NAND) and some other froyo kernel based ROM as secondary ROM? I have a Green Lens Defy - MB525.

I have gone through all the 1192 posts in this thread(It took around 3 weeks for me to do this:mad:) Still I'm not able to find why I'm not able to achieve dual boot with CM10 2ndboot build. I also posted in Multiboot/DualBoot On CM10 thread, but I didn't get any help...

This is what I did recently (I have tried and failed many times before this:() :

I did a full SBF Flash with my country's ROM (JRDNEM_U3_3.4.3-36-1.7.sbf)

Installed CM 10 - 18th Nov build , installed BT fix, format cache & data to ext4

Booted in CM10 and placed 3 fresh image files (system.img, data.img, cache.img each of size 300MB) in the folder /sdcard/multiboot/cmseven

Flashed the latest touchmenu+multiboot v0.8 zip found in download section of OP from NAND stable recovery. Now I got the new option 'Multiboot' in the touch bootmenu

Then rebooted and went to bootmenu by Vol down when blue LED comes -> Multiboot -> Recovery -> Custom Recovery -> cmseven. Now I got the Multiboot Custom Recovery

Now flashed the cm-7.2.0-jordan.zip (downloaded from cyanogenmod.org website) from the Multiboot Custom Recovery. Then Wipe Cache Partition-> Wipe Dalvik Cache

Reboot -> vol down when blue LED -> got touch bootmenu-> Click Boot -> Click on 2nd-system. It booted into the CM7.2 which I have installed in SD Card (secondary ROM) without any issues.

When I was inside the secondary ROM CM7.2, pressed power button -> Reboot. This time I didn't press vol down when blue LED comes and I left it to boot into 2nd-boot by default (I didn't change Boot -> 'Set Default' as 2nd-system from bootmenu after flashing CM7.2)

Now I got bootloop :eek: [Motorola Red-M logo comes, then blue LED comes, blue LED changes to red LED, then in the next second screen dims and the phone reboots]

Now I'm able to boot into only the secondary ROM(CM7.2) and I get bootloop in NAND(CM10). Even I tried Wipe Data/Wipe Cache Partition/Wipe Dalvik Cache from the NAND custom recovery as well as stable recovery. But still I get only boot loops in NAND. And i get the following errors when I enter custom or stable recovery:

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/command

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/log

E: Can't mount /cache/recovery/last_log

E: Can't open /cache/recovery/last_log

I doubt if the wipes which I do in the NAND custom or stable recovery succeeds bcoz i get the above mentioned errors and also it just takes 1 or 2 seconds to wipe and then displays that the wipe was completed!!

Hope I have provided all the details and the steps I followed:D Experts please analyze what problem I'm facing and give me a solution. TIA...

Now in Boot menu under Tools, there is no File System tools to format the data and cache back to ext3. But that option was there before flashing the touchbootmenu+multiboot zip by m11kkaa. Now under Tools I find the options ADB Daemon, share SD Card, share Drivers, etc... But no file system tools.

Uninstall?

Hello,

I've installed some time ago Multiboot so try several systems (back when CM9 & CM10 weren't that stable) and now I want to uninstall it completely. The version that I have installed is the latest available on the 1st post: touchbootmenuV2.0beta_multibootV0.8-20120829-signed.zip

I've tried installing a new ROM (latest CM10 by Quarx) without data wipe, wiping everything, starting from scrath with a SBF (obviously, without installing multiboot again), using ADB from both bootmenu and recovery to see if something can be done there (bootmenu folder looks exactly the same as Quarx's ROM, no trace of multiboot that I could find / deleted 70-bootmenu.sh) and no luck so far. Anyone can point me in the right direction?

Thank you.

I have a defy red lens running MS2Ginger 3.0 rom, i want to run cm10 as secondary.

I have multiboot touchmenu v0.8 installed. I have multiboot manager installed, created the 3 required image files at 300mb each,

I go to multiboot from the bootmenu, select cm10 from there and go into the recovery for it...it comes up with multiboot in big writing across the screen and the recovery comes up, i install cm10 , clear cache and dalvik, reboot and nothing works, from the bootmenu, if i select second boot it just gets stuck on my primary boot screen and just boot loops, if i select second system then it just goes to a black screen and nothing...just stays like that, left if for up to 10 min and nothing happens. Only goes off if i take out the battery.

Any help anyone?????

Multiboot presently doesn't support custom kernel roms yet. Check if you're trying too flash cm10 that has a custom kernel. All the recent cm10 roms use custom kernel. So, if you're trying to flash rom with custom kernel, that wont work.
