Is a bootloader within the realm of possibility?

Thanks for the write-up.. I'm at the drinking my coffee while the untar keeps chugging stage, and it occurs to me that a bootloader would be very cool to have. Kernels flash so quickly, the recovery method isn't far off in terms of usability.. but it did motivate the question: is it possible?

So I'm just curious - is there any reason why we couldn't have the android and linux kernels both on disk to be loaded by a bootloader based on user choice?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nbenm:
Hello,

I have tried the "DjDill img" method.

When it finishes booting, it tells me that there are networks, and yhat I have to configure wifi.

I can't find how.

ifconfig shows lo and wlan0, and wlan0 is up but of course has no address.

if I try a iwlist scan, it tells me that wlan0 is an interface that doesn't support scanning.

In "settings manager/network connections", if I try to add a connection, it doesn't see my ssid.

Do you have any idea or point me to some doc/tuto.

Thanks in advance

What kernel and what image did you used?

Tapatalké depuis mon Nexus 4 MIUI !
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Compmaniac:
Couple questions

First, BIG thx to you and all the devs for hacking the tf-101!!

I've tried several of the images and they all worked as posted (Go figure ;) ). I will be trying to compile a kernel for some custom work.

1 - Are the kernels compiled on the TF-101 and the tarballed?

2 - Any idea if Kali Linux 1.0.6 ARMHF Image, build will work?

I'll be using an external wifi dongle and not the internal.

Again much excitement to the tf-101 world!
[Eee Pad Transformer General] nbenm:
I'm using kernel:Ubuntu-3.1.10-12-rootbind-oc1.0GHz.zip from your rootbind kernel link

I use image:tf101-14.04-xubuntu-armhf.tar.gz which is a DjDill image.

Before you reply me, I wanted to try "TravellingGuy Image". On its page, it was told to create wlan0 entry in the interfaces file. I did this and it works now.

But I can't understant why:

- iwlist scan doesn't work

- network manager doesn't see any of the multiple essids tahere are here

When I try to iwconfig essid "my_ssid", it says "cannot read /proc/net/wireless". Does it need some module ?

Thanks

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
Ubuntu-3.1.10-12-rootbind-oc1.0GHz.zip doesnt exist ?

It's Ubuntu-3.1.10-12-rootbind-oc1.2GHz.zip

Or Ubuntu-3.1.10-10-rootbind-1.0GHz.zip

If you choose the Ubuntu-3.1.10-12-rootbind-oc1.2GHz.zip, wifi will works by default with defaut network manager without needing any cmd config or anything on pre installed DjDill img, IDK for Travelling guy img I didnt tested it, but you can try the other method if you're on Debian img and wifi doest work.

If you choose DjDill img, choose one of the lastest, This one http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50335555&postcount=1

Or the 1.1 14.04 one, end of this post : http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=50335574&postcount=2

Or the Lxde build from same post.

But I suggest to use the first for now, it's the newer and have a lot of fixes.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
Updated !

With second post and added jrohwer 14.04 IMG !
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dasbooter:
image: Kubuntu 14.04 With Tegra drivers.

kernel: Ubuntu-3.1.10-12-rootbind-oc1.2GHz.zip also tried Ubuntu-3.1.10-10-rootbind-1.0GHz.zip

It boots into KDE fine now but initially had some warnings even after running depmod -a. I had to issue the comnmand depmod -a a few times and it black screened once on boot.

I cant seem to get the wifi networking working even though it finds local networks clicking on the networks in the GUI doesn't do anything. Any help here. This is my first linux boot on the transformer but I have used Ubuntu since gutsy. I have to admit I am a little confused after reading a couple of posts here about exactly comes with these premade images. For instance the nvidia drivers are they included as modules in these images. When i read jrohwer's thread for the image he includes his apt sources list and states that the it took a little to get the nvidia drivers working?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
Like I said on the other thread to setup Wi-Fi you have to setup in cmd line. Search on the net to setup with nmcli command or you install another network manager

Tapatalké depuis mon Nexus 4 MIUI !
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dasbooter:
Yes sorry I was struggling with the command for nmcli. I should have elaborated ... Tried various commands .. and this was what worked.

nmcli dev wifi

to list off the possible availables ap's then to join what you want

sudo nmcli dev wifi connect "whatever ap u want to connect to"

much easier to hunt down answers with a working intenet connection

Sorry bout that. I suppose my other question about the nvidia drivers is most likely too silly to answer ??
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
What question ?

You dont have to do anything with the driver as in 14.04 build from jrohwer, is pre installed.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dasbooter:
Thanks i was reading jrohwer's thread for the 14.04 image and he was discussing the fact that it took alot of work to get the nvidia drivers up and running and then gives his apt sources list for download but after what u said it sounds like this is for people who want to get there own images together with working nvidia drivers. So compiling your own modules. Sorry I just wasnt sure. Anyways thanks for the trouble. I have connected to the ap but cant get a connection out to the internet. Oh well maybe I will try that lubuntu image on the first page. Thanks
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
Sounds weird, you successfully connected but dont have access to internet ?

Correct command for connecting on AP with a password is

sudo nmcli dev wifi connect <ssid> password <password>

And yes, the files that jrohwer gave, is for those who want to create a 14.04 with nvidia driver working img.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] dasbooter:
Ya its at a hospital with no wpa type encryption only a login web page with name and password. I am most certainly connected ifconfig shows I have pulled a IP address etc etc. I have been reading about similiar problems in other linux type threads where there is automatic redirection to the login page. I actually use an app hellowifi to automatically enter the info in katkiss 4.4.2 so I am actually having trouble getting the address of that login page lol. I will give it a try at home where i have a wpa2 encrypted connection
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:

always no matter if i enter sdcard0 or 1 it always says no such file or directory....

the correct path to my sdcard according to filemanager would be storage/Removable/MicroSD but even this is not working.

help please
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
The path is for internal storage.

Change it accordingly where you put your ubuntu zip.

Mind that it's case sensitive
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mclaren2:
this was not helpful at allsorry but i know the difference between sdcard0 and 1 and internal and external space. i am not flashing for the first time.

i even have put it on internal AND sdcard and tried both ... it still says no such file or directory. i renamed the kubuntu file even to make it easier. still no luck.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
So your path is not good what do you want me to say?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mclaren2:
but why is the path not good? i mean there must be some reason behind this also why its not working. i have no idea. as you did the howto you might have a suggestion i thought.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
Post exact command you do for beggining.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mclaren2:
i install android terminal emulator from the google play store, start it, enter su, enter, i get the question to give it superuser privileges.

then i enter as in your guide:

the inverted parts work without any failure, it always fails at the bolded part, my file is renamed to kubuntu.tar.bz2 to make it easier, and i have tried /storage/sdcard0 and sdcard1 and also storage/Removable/MicroSD ...

always the same: no such file or directory.

isnt there a way to extract the tar archive on your comp??
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
You didnt give me EXACT command you did.

I want the whole command with the exact syntax you're using.

If you want some help, I need to know what you're doing.
[Eee Pad Transformer General] mclaren2:
what synatx do you expect me to use? i open the terminal and type the commands you wrote in post 1 as they are. the same way i would do it in windows command terminal or linux konsole.... i dont know what you expect me to give you? a screenshot photographed of what i have entered?
[Eee Pad Transformer General] Kingzak34:
I dont know how to be more clear than that.

You are making a mistake somewhere.

/storage/sdcard0/

I don't see it.

Where did you place your file exactly?

What rom are you using?

File Explorer should give you the right path, try to cd to directories in terminal and do the ls command to know where your file is.

i got it working!!! its neither storage/sdcard0 nor 1, its just plain and simple /sdcard/ (NO STORAGE added before)

and now it hangs during extraction usr/share/locale/l10n/gn/entry.desktop

this is annoying :(

edit: extraction seems to run better now, i disabled screen off, which seems to not go well with it.

edit2: after installation and flashing the linux kernel, it started to boot, showed 2 tuxes and then the usual initialisation command lines but now seems to hang with:

Just remove the "z" and replace by "j" you're good to go.

Feedback on Ubuntu installation

Hey

Many Thanks for this Thread and to the related ones.

After years of TF101 use with ASUS Android 4.0.3 I have discovered this new world and I very happy with it.

I have installed CWM recovery and followed the instructions of this post (I have found a Android 4.0.3 root image for keeping all Android stuff unchanged).

The first UBUNTU installation done with ystem1.0... root image and 14.04Lubuntu was buggy : I followed the suggestion to reformat

System and Data partition and to reinstall everithing.

On second installation I remouved most of the bug , but on start-up Ubuntu keep saying ,every time, that "serious disk errors"have been found and I have to press "I"to continue the start-up.

It is not a big deal to do that nevertheless..........!

I have installed several packages and all work well , the speed and the power it is similar of the one of a windows desktop.

A few little remarks :

-touchpad: it works quite well but the resolution is to low and I have not succeeded changing it: the android resolution is better and with UBUNTU you have to point very precisely (eg. for resising windows and for other tasks .....)

-batteries: the batteries drain down quite rapidely. This may be due to the fact that is not possible to suspend or hybernate both commands are equivalent to a reboot. The only possibility for saving power is to shutdown the screen just closing the lid(this work........some time it is necessary to undock and redock the keyboard), but this is not enougth , the battery will drain in few ours with the lid closed.

-cameras : it will be nice to have one camera working........

Thank again: YOU HAVE DONE A GREAT JOB!

hello everybody, thanks for creating a bootable ubuntu image for our asus tf101, rootbind method is fantastic, i have only a question how can i install kubuntu 14.04, i downloaded the file but is a bz2 file not gz so the terminal emulator doesn't install the os, can you help me? i hope that you understand my message, and sorry for my english

I totally agree with touchpad but I dont think we can do anything. But who knows, a search can't hurt.

another problem :) i searched a lot but i can't find solution for enable wifi device in my tf101 running kubuntu 14.04 with 3.10.9 kernel, i also opened the terminal emulator and i typed nmcli dev wifi connect (ssid) (password), i know that i have to search before posting, but now i don't know what i have to do
[Eee Pad Transformer General] pbecchi:
Thanks for your fast answer!

The battery drain it is mainly due to not been able to suspend: if I try to do it when I push the start button I have a reboot.

With Android if I close the lid the process is suspended and the battery drain stops.Normally a full charge last 24+ hours (of course most of that time is not active). To obtain the same result with ubuntu I have to shutdown and reboot.

Regarding touchpad I have tried using xinput to modify "elantech_touchscreen" props:

Unfortunately there are to many parameters! ......I have tried with Trackpad Sensitivity:

normal setting =1.0

tested 0.5 the pointer get slow and erratic

0.8 it may be a good setting it improve a little the resolution

Is it possible to make somekind of launch menu at Boot. Im thinking something like an normal GRUB menu.

It should only be able to do 3 things.

1 - apply Linux kernel to TF101

2 - apply Android kernel to TF101

3 - Launch CWM

it would be great not having to enter CWM to change the kernel, it find CWM really slow to boot to menu. Takes approximate 35 second :(

USB FTDI drivers

Hello

I am trying to connect my EEE PAD with LUbuntu 14.04 to an Arduino board with an FDTI cable.

The unit is not reconised by Arduino IDE software and the reason is that the drivers are not available.

I have learned that all drivers should be included in the kernel but the one I should use is not there:

ftdi_sio

I dont think is an easy task to add a driver in the kernel.........do I have any other option?

Another kernel I can use?

Thanks
