i just need to know how to type the command i can go threw them one by one. i just dont know what all needs to be typed. if you could give me an example of what it should look like i could figure the rest out but i dont know if you need to type the just the uuid number or if i need to type the whole line. should i type it all like this /dev/block/vold/259:5: UUID="57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b" TYPE="ext4"/mnt/sdcard/

or should i type it like this. /dev/block/ UUID="57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b" TYPE="ext4"/mnt/sdcard/

or should it be like this /dev/57f8f4bc-abf4-655f-bf67-946fc0f9f25b/mnt/sdcard/

i know i have to type busybox mount first but after that im lost. Sorry for all the questions im just trying to learn as much as i can i would like to start developing eventually, but i have a lot to learn. all your help is much appreciated as well as everyone who helps. Like i said if you could give me an example of what the whole command should look like i could do the rest.

[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] fattire:
I gotta disagree with this last part. If anything, the Nook Color was the first 7" mainstream affordable ($250 in 2010) "e-Book Reader" turned general Android tablet, and its port to CM predated the KFire by a year or so. (How do I know? I started working on that port in Nov or Dec '10. Cicadaman had a vanilla Froyo Android firmware ("Nookie Froyo") going even before that.) The KFire wasn't even announced until September '11. In fact, the KFire shares its OMAP architecture with not only the Nook Color/Tablet/HDs, but the blackberry playbook as well, which if I remember right, uses the first incarnation of what was supposed to be Kindle hardware.

I should also add that I'm fairly sure that Google, who develops Android source (and whose occasional code drop is the basis of Amazon's stock software), and who has had an app store since at least 2009, didn't suddenly get the idea of a 7" tablet from the Kindle...

Slightly offtopic, I know. But hopefully +1 Informative.

::::UPDATE:::

Okay kids, we need help.

Hashcode has been making amazing progress with the Kindle Fire 2 and the Kindle Fire HD 8.9, but we've hit a major snag with the Kindle Fire HD 7.

We don't have an adequate kernel, which will therefore hinder MOST of the features we truly need.

Hashcode doesn't HAVE this tablet, and we cannot expect him to go through the process of developing a kernel with NO TABLET TO TEST IT ON.

I have ZERO kernel experience, but I am trying desperately to learn as quickly as I can in hopes that I can do this on my own.

If ANYONE would like to mentor me in developing kernels, or wants to jump in and be a hero here, PLEASE LET ME KNOW.

If not, then we may be stuck with our current, barely working, build until I figure out the kernel on my own.

Where are you learning this at? I don't know any either but am willing to donate my time and software dev experience to this.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] Hashcode:
Hi Guys,

I did have a conversation the other day with Rev about the status of the HD7.

And after looking at how hard it would be to do a blind merge on the kernel (to bring it up-to-date with the HD8.9), I came to the difficult conclusion that I just didn't have it in me.

A couple of reasons:

- Obviously developing a kernel for a device remotely is about 100% more difficult than doing in locally. The KF2 is fairly lucky that it's nearly identical to the 1st gen. Even then it took me a few days to iron out bugs and get a decent build.

- Even if I *did* have a device, I'm literally swapped w/ android dev atm. I support a handful of phones, plus the KFires and Safestrap on 6-7 devices. I was hoping originally that the HD7 and HD8.9 would be close enough kernel wise that it wouldn't take very long to clean up, and then I'd be able to hand the device off to Rev or someone else who could basically use and abuse all of the previous KFire development to build ROMs.

Hopefully, someone can step up and do the merge up to where the HD8.9 is at kernel wise and put this device on the map. It's certainly not a bad piece of hardware.

Sorry I can't help out more.
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] jailuis:

that is the link to install ubuntu from within windows-no repartitioning required. it basically installs in windows just like any other program would but when you boot up you can choose to boot either windows or ubuntu.

That is true, but the KF2 was almost identical to the original KF, which Hashcode most definitely does have. That, along with several testers, made the KF2 kernel possible.

building a working kernel is a little harder then most of you understand. hashcode is a genius and it took crazy dedication and coding and weeks/months for him to build up a 3.x kernel that actually worked. most of you have no experience so building a kernel from scratch won't really be all that easy. hopefully rev can help out, but finding out hadhcode is a no go on this device is devastating lol he has done amazing work on the kf1/2 there is so much work that needs to be done.

Blaze or Blaze Tablet 4430/4460 - with ICS releases	blaze_defconfig

our tablet is blaze 4460, i think that develop a good kernel can be difficult but to start it seems to be very simple
[7" Kindle Fire HD Android Development] fattire:
Yeah. As I understand it, the issue is more complicated than just building the kernel. Building a kernel usually involves just one or two lines (load in the defconfig, start the build) typed into the Terminal. I believe this kernel has to be updated as well, and while I don't have this details of what the issues are exactly, hashcode mentioned that it needs some TI updates and may need custom adjustments/upgrades to the board file, pvr directory, or elsewhere.

Then, whomever built the kernel needs to repackage it with a ramdisk in such a way that it will continue to work with the locked bootloader fix.

In other words, it's not just "build it once and you're done". It's an iterative process of tweak it, build it, package it, flash it, try it... again and again until everything is working.

That said, a first step is to learn how to build it using the current kernel and get THAT working. Everyone starts somewhere.
