I own K3G (3G+Wifi) D00901 - 3.1 558700031 and DXG D00801 - 2.5.8 555370010 and I'm trying to test update of dxg to 3.1 using kindle-updater-beta-2-3.
update_dxg-2.5.8-prepare_kindle.bin on DXG runs well and produces all expected files:
Code:
dpavlin@t61p:~$ ls -al /mnt/usb/output/
total 694948
drwxr-xr-x 2 dpavlin dpavlin 4096 May 11 17:51 .
drwxr-xr-x 9 dpavlin dpavlin 4096 Jan 1 1970 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dpavlin dpavlin 474 May 11 17:44 make-backup.log
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dpavlin dpavlin 297 May 11 16:56 make-image.log
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dpavlin dpavlin 419454976 May 11 17:51 rootfs.img
-rwxr-xr-x 1 dpavlin dpavlin 292155092 May 11 17:44 update_restore-os.bin
However, update_k3g-3.1-create_updater.bin on K3G finishes in only 10 minutes and restarts kindle which which doesn't display any files or respond to menu key presses or tries to connect to laptop via usb.
After 20 second power reset, I get UPDATE ERROR:3 and suggestion to use R to resume kindle which I did.
After that, rootfs.img is still there, and only file in output directory is make-package.log with:
Code:
Fri May 13 18:12:25 CEST 2011: checking for enough free space to continue
Fri May 13 18:12:25 CEST 2011: mounting rootfs image to /tmp/.rootfs.998
Fri May 13 18:12:25 CEST 2011: retrieving filelist and patches
Fri May 13 18:12:25 CEST 2011: saving required files to /tmp/.save-root.998.tar
Fri May 13 18:12:30 CEST 2011: removing old files from rootfs image
Fri May 13 18:12:34 CEST 2011: copying new files to rootfs image
I'm puzzled by this. I don't see any errors about tts mentioned in this thread, but I did try with NO_TTS and it didn't help.
Looking into kindle-updater-beta-2-3-src/packages.lst I can see that it has LF as last byte, so I assume that I don't need suggestion to add LF for 2.3 version of update and rebuild bin files.
Is it possible to run creation manually over usbnetwork to get more error messages?
