[Bootmenu-devel] [Patch] Maemo Bootmenu

[Pali Rohár]

Hello,

I fixed some bugs and added new features in Maemo Bootmenu for Nokia N900.
I'm sending patch (generated by svn diff). Can you include it to new
version of Bootmenu?
I'd like continue develop bootmenu for n900.

This patch fix these bugs:
 - In bootmenu after 20-30s n900 restart - watchdogs problem
(inspirated by backupmenu)
 - On charging mode, display is too dark
 - It is not possible to execute linuxrc sctipt stored in rootfs (e.g
in /etc/...)
 - It is not possible to execute linuxrc script if directory
/mnt/new_root does not exist

New features in this patch:
 - Added support for usb recorvery mode on N900
 - Added support for sshd too (not only dropbear)
 - Added support for udhcpd
 - Changed keys MENU and ESC to SHIFT and CTRL on N900
 - On N900 show current OS name (e.g. Maemo 5) in bootmenu instead
"Internal flash"

With this patch is possible to make new entry for Backupmenu or other
sh/bash script located on rootfs to bootmenu.

I have only one problem with watchdogs. To create watchdogs /dev/...
this patch use udev (like in backupmenu), which spend some seconds. I
try create watchdogs dev directly with mknod (see commented code after
udev section in bootmenu.sh), but this totally brick my n900 (I needed
reflash full FIASCO image to able booting). I do not know how to fix
this problem.
