ZImage is only compatible with 2.5 and 2.6 CM9 image file.

If you install only kernel and initramfs, you have just to go to sde menu and install it. That's all!!

Menu.lst is just to choose the image file (you just change the name into menu.lst when there is an update)

Ok I wait your donation to pay 200 lcd modder pro licences, pro is to buy ;)

Actually I just ran df and I have 24MB free on /; for 3 and 4, after quitting the swapfile the problem has lessened.

---------- Post added at 06:55 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ----------

Also, it seems that the LZO kernel is very computational intensive given that my A43 gets pretty hot while in use, and it actually decrease the performance of cpu intensive apps like Dolphin browser.

---------- Post added at 06:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:41 PM ----------

I have a feature request for the kernel, I know you use OpenAOS multiboot, can you change it so it loads the OS list from an alternative menu.lst (for example menuBiz.lst)?, the reason is because I also have OpenAOS CyanogenMod on this same tablet, I multiboot using kboot and it could be easier to for me to simply put CyanoBiz multiboot as default on kboot and have a menuBiz.lst with only the relevant CyanoBiz entries.
[Gen8 General] Mavasilisk:
Just add both ROMs in your Menu.lst and you can boot it. I have Uruk/CM7/CM9 on my tab
[Gen8 General] rafaga12:
I know i can do that (as a matter of fact i do it this way), but i have to select the proper kernel on kboot, then the proper entry in CM7 or CM9 multiboot, given that CM9 kernel can't boot CM7 image and viceversa, given that, it could be easier to have separate OS list for each of them.
[Gen8 General] bizcuite:
I don't know how work Kboot, i don't use it and have never use it.

But i have just a question. If kboot permit to select the kernel. The initramfs.cpio.gz, will be the same for all kernels???!! I have already opened the initramfs and the link to read menu.lst must be there.

The result will be the same like ATM, if i am right.

Bizcuite
[Gen8 General] divx118:
No, initramfs and kernel are different for all your boot options. So kboot lets you select kernel and initramfs. I even made an adjustment to the kboot script, to directly booting into an image with also copying a one line menu.lst together with the kernel and initramfs (So no need to goto openaos multiboot first). I didn't release it yet, still need to check what kboot is changing on the archos recovery partition. I must be sure it is 100% save to use, which I think it is. Also it has no touchscreen support yet which makes it impossible to use for the smaller devices without hardware buttons.

divx118
[Gen8 General] rafaga12:
I would be very interested in such script, please let me know when you release it!

---------- Post added at 09:07 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:58 AM ----------

This is kboot: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1522024, in short, it's a kernel with kexec support, it can use different initramfs and zImage for every boot option, right now I have it to boot:

Archos Froyo with Chulri root

Urukdroid

OpenAOS CyanogenMod

CyanoBiz

What I look, is to just have different OS lists for CM7 and CM9 multiboot so I can boot straight to CM7 or CM9 without double selecting the appropriate OS.
[Gen8 General] divx118:
Below is the link to build my git of kboot and some explaining. Note that you will need latest initramfs from openaos git for it to work.

Hello! It's my first post here :)

I have installed CM9 on my archos 101 16gb, and it's working very well, thanks :good:

I have some questions

1) its is possible to make CM9 the default choice at boot instead of selecting developer edition every time?

2) I don't find the command to safely remove the microsd. I even googled it to know where it should be in ICS (I don't have any other android device) but there isn't.

3) The usb port doesn't work. Usb drives and keyboard are not recognized. It is known or it's only a problem of my tablet? (I have used the zImage with 35% compression if it's important)
[Gen8 General] mika67:
Hello,

1) I wanted to use UPNP function with the CM9 by means of the app Bubble UPNP.

Unfortunately this app does not find to Twonkey servers.

On the original operating system of archos has I accessed the Twonky server (with Cinema Plugin).

Alternatively apps as upnp skifta can find no Twonkey server under CM9 also.

2) It can be that from time to time the Wlan connection with CM9 one interrupts.

I have again and again the problem that access to Internet sites to suspend at short notice.

I do not know this problem on the part of the network. Are there hereby experiences with you?

Many thanks

Terminal

Hi guys, I have installed ICS and its going ok. My question is about the swap in terminal emulator. Sorry if my next question is stupid for all you guys. But how do i Write all those lines? Every time I press enter to move down to write the next line i get sorry not found or something along those lines. Im getting alot of forced closes and the A101 gen 8 is running very laggy. Any help would be greatly accepted.

If you want to check your swap (used/free) just type free and it will show you everything. If u didnt mean that be more specific.
[Gen8 General] rafaga12:
Snappy Kernel is better

I switched from the LZO kernel to the Snappy 35% and it works far better, it's much faster and more usable in my A43; this was made with clean images.

Also this time a didn't had bootloops nor "The application is not responding errors", could it be that LZO kernel suck all resources on first boot and causes all these crashes?

Did anyone tried to access a dlna server from their tab?

My 101 with latest Cyanobiz installed is the only device that can't see my dlna server on the network.

[Gen8 General] Bingoig11:
Yep just saw your earlier post I didn't see.

I never succeeded to see my UPnP server since using Cyanobiz.

It may be wifi stack related.

It can't be a configuration issue since my Note that is on the same wifi network (same ssid, same encryption, same network segment) ils seeing it.

I've done some more test and found the following in my A43:

- Video playing is choppy with hardware acceleration, more info:

+ MX Player

+ Video H264 Main@3, 1281 kbps, 720x400

+ Audio MPEG-4 AAC LC, 318 kbps

- Video paying is irregular using a software player (MX Player) even with adequate codecs, sometimes it works others it decode too fast other too slow (tested with 32 bits and 16 bits color depth)

- ePSXe works perfectly with Metal Slug X, runs fast and don't lag

Does anyone else have similar findings?
[Gen8 General] bizcuite:
Yes the hardware decoding lags, there is a problem with sound (buffer?) HAL.

You tube low quality works since i have modify the buffer size (8192 to 4096).

I search in the kernel ATM, i looks sound driver, memory management and how use DLNA function since users want it.

A question for users who has already used DLNA function. Is it possible to have it with other OS on gen8?

Backport of GPU driver works well (i find too). Speed is really better all others OS for GEN8!!

I will be in holiday this Tuesday, i hope that the sun will be here....

Hello again, i will like to put Cyanobiz again on my A70 tab and i wonder which kernel initramfs and data image (of 3 options zimage) is best for me. And how much free ram shows after boot?
[Gen8 General] pitflyer:
So my Archos 101 has been sitting in a drawer unused for a while, but I brought it out of hibernation to try this ROM out. I followed the steps listed, put in the new kernel (zImage) and initfs, rebooted into the Archos and copied the two image files (used the 1 gig data_ICS.img) and added the menu.lst and then rebooted again into developer edition and selected ICS. It booted, but there was error message after error message like

Sorry, email has stopped.

Sorry, XYZ has stopped.

It then prompted me for 'Home Sample' or 'Trebuchet'. Knowing that Trebuchet was the launcher I select that.. and it will say

Sorry, trebuchat has stopped.

Try again, same response, with a 'Sorry, email has stopped' thrown in for good measure. I can tell ICS did boot (since the lock screen is ICS). Anything else I can do to help debug? Thanks to the developers for still supporting this device

......

To reply to my own comment, I swapped from the first zImage listed to the third one. Now it booted just fine, but after connecting to wifi it doesn't seem like anything is going on... will keep experimenting with that and installing GAPPS now.
[Gen8 General] Bingoig11:
Experienced this issue on the very first boot. Once rebooted, everything is working. You simply have to reboot and that's all.

[Gen8 General] PamelaGirl:
Thank you to all the developers/supporters for making this project happen!

I was(still am)very excited when Bingoig11 told me about this thread.

I too had the same repeated error messages that pitflyer mentioned in post #138. A reboot helped make those error messages go away.

My goal for the 101IT is to run Tasker and utter!

I hope to contribute something to the project :)

Thank you again to all the developers/supporters for making this project happen!
[Gen8 General] bizcuite:
Ok, just to try, there are problems with first boot.

-Install kernel and initramfs.cpio.gz

-reboot and go again in SDE Menu

-Copy paste CM9 image file and data_ICS.img

-reboot

and see if you have again any problem.

Please report, i haven't tried it.

The problem cannot be solved by a reboot if you have crashed app at first boot. The CM9 image must be full because all datas are in the CM9 image file not in data_ICS.img.

Hi i haven't seen your post before.

All developers (me lol) thanks you to used my system....It's in beta stage, don't forget this!!

And i thank all others users too ;)

I will post another kernel, with others change: CPU Gov added, Snappy compression optimised, Compcache disable.

It will be to try in first. All users except A70S2, had a bad XP with zram compression.

This is my second posting on this thread and I have become an admirer of your wonderful work, as well as the group effort of getting ICS on our Gen8 devices. Currently I am not a developer, but hopefully I can serve as a helper in knocking out any bugs. I am very good with speaking very long sentences, and following very detailed instructions. While this ROM is stil in Beta it holds so much exciting promise!

No USB Share

Hello, I have installed the last release of the ROM on my Archos 101it.

The ROM is not very buggy, I think it's ok for a daily use, so, it's a great job!

But... I tried to connect my tablet to my PC (With Windows 8, if it can helps) with the original USB cable and the cable of my phone. I hear the connection sound, but nothing happens. On the tablet, the connection window appears. If I click the connection button, I see a "wait wheel" (I don't know how it's called in English) and it never disappears if I don't disconnect the tablet. The first time I tried, a window appears for the driver installation, but Windows haven't found any driver. I cancelled the installation, disconnected the tablet and reconnected it. Nothing. I opened the Device Manager and I see this :

The H:\ and I:\ devices are the tablet, but I don't know why it appears. In the "Other devices" section, it shows the A101it, and if I go to the properties window, it says me that there is no driver.

I tried to search different drivers, but nothing matters. I tried the ADB Composite Driver from Archos, the Driver from the Android SDK, the Driver for Samsung SGS1 (I seen in the dev topic that it can helps) but nothing helps. I tried also to reinstall the ROM from scratch but it doesn't helps me.

So, what can I do?

Otherwise, I will thank all the developpers who have helped to make this ROM. :laugh:

You can look in the dir openaos/disabled there should be a file openaos_init.ini. Within it some settings from the advanced menu including the timeout are stored. Maybe it helps if you change it in the file directly. If the file isn't there, try to create one with this name in that folder and put below line in it.

TIME_OUT_MENU=10

Hi Bizcuite I read in the development thread that your rom has been downloaded a few times, I believe this is for the lack of visibility of you port, when I was searching it took me too much time to really find your port, given that most resources where pointed to letama's initial ICS build, perhaps a hint to Arctablet Blog about your ROM will make things a little bit livelier here. :)

I second the motion of solving the screen problem on landscape for the A43; I've also experienced the problem that my A43 is not charging, but I usually let it run dry and then boot into the original firmware for charging; regarding Bluetooth, you may want to elevate your privileges first by typing su then typing the command; using MX Player I recommend you to use SW decoding and use it with a color depth of 16 bits, of course as it's using CPU power and memory for decoding the video, I recommend you to kill whatever task is running and you don't need to maximize performance.

You cannot install my rom on your tab actually. Yes actually, because your tabs and mine are very similar, but you have a more recent motherboard.

I have seen that your kernel (for gen9) is compatible with my tab (a70s2 but froyo version with an old motherboard).

But your memory mapping is different.

I can boot the initramfs with archos gen9 kernel. It's already great. But it stops after because it cannot mount mmcblck1p1.

I need that you made me a "mount -l" or "mount" if it doesn't worked.

With your tab and a terminal emulator or adb shell, to know what differences there are between the 2 tabs.

Can you make me the return of this command please?

[Gen8 General] bizcuite:
Gen 9, yes and no. Your tab is a gen9 with gen8 cpu. I don't know why archos had made this tab. We have similar hardware (cpu gfx wifi bt sensor and ts).

There is no rom for your tab except archos firmware of course.

But maybe you will be able to use my rom if i can boot with the actual initramfs. I have "just" just to find what is wrong. Just wait that i finish this work and you will be able to use ics (i hope).

Gen9 forum is useless for you, the last kernel published by archos is for ics and only a101xs and a80 has been configured.
