SD Card resize problem with Ubuntu 11.04
Jayabharath, Goluguri
- Size & Brand of SD card
- PandaBoard Revision
- Command you were using the load the image on the SD card
- If possible attach the file /var/log/jasper.log
- Note:This file is intially created in initramfs and then copied to the SD card and the end of the re-size process. So, depending on where the resizing may have failed you may or may not be able to get to it.

It is a binary file. How would I read it?
After your email, I tried and it worked OK twice, even though it
stopped at the line Creating bootloader configuration and never
rebooted.
I then tried other two times and it stopped here, (I could not mount
the card afterward).

If I use BusyBox from here, I can actually `ls` the /dev/disk/by-uuid/

When I mounted the SD card, I got some warnings that e2fsck should be

When I plugged the card into my cardreader to get the content the
jasper.log it took a while until the partition has been mounted. It
seems the partition was flagged dirty and it had to be checked first.
I hope the information helps to solve the issue.

I also do have exactly the same setup Panda A2, Kingstone 8GB Class 10
and also get those ugly

corrupted setup I always switch off panda, re-dd the card with
headless 11.04 image and run again and the errors shows once here and
on another try there... So honestly speaking if Panda does not like
Kingstone SD cards then I'm afraid there is a kind of bad board design
(something badly designed to stress OMAP4 over its limits on SD card
communication lines -- or something like that).
Quite disappointment for me, as I badly need 2xA9 performance,
currently I'm using i.MX53 Quick Start Board and it is rock-solid but
performance limited... :-(

I do have Kingstone 8GB class 10, type is SD10G2/8GB (ultimate X
100X). It works on resize, but on next reboot I get a lot of I/O
errors (talking about Ubuntu 11.04 headless installation).
it would really help if manufacturer list somewhere types/names/sizes
of card which were actually tested and which runs well.
So far my feeling from the conference is that Kingstone G2 type of
cards is probably unsupported, but since a lot of other cards show
also issues, man really don't know what to purchase then to work with
panda. My pandaboard is A2 revision.
Thanks!

im stuck on the very first bit, i cant even load the image on the SD
card.
I tried all the methods you guys were using but it keeps saying file
cant be found when i use the right destination.
Anyone got any ideas?

would prevent the transfer. Also check if You are using the right
destination:
sudo fdisk -ls
The destination should point to the device and not the partition. In
other words it should be something like /dev/sdb or /dev/sde (but
without any numbers on the end).

sean ngo
the right destination.
Firstly, my SD card is inserted onto a USB multicard reader so i dont
know if that changes anything. i am still able to access it on ubuntu
and windows.
On the ubuntu terminal window i type:
"sudo fdisk -ls"
and it comes out with this (for my 16gb sd card):
"Disk /dev/sdb: 15.9GB, 15931539456 bytes
255 heads, 63 sectors/trac, 1936 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 16065 * 512 = 8225280 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes

Disk identifier: 0X00000000
Device Boot Start End Blocks Id System
/dev/sdb1 1 1937 15554048 c W95 FAT32
(LBA)"
So i know the location is a sdb so i wrote this command:
"gunzip -c ubuntu-11.04-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap4.img.gz | sudo
dd bs=4M of=/dev/sdb"
then it came out with:
"gzip: ubuntu-11.04-preinstalled-netbook-armel+omap4.img.gz: No such
file or directory
0+0 records in
0+0 records out
0 bytes 90 B) copied, 0.00643126 s, 0.0 kb/s"
so i tried the other command:
sudo sh -c 'zcat ./ubuntu-11.04-preinstalled-netbook-armel
+omap4.img.gz | dd bs=4M of=/dev/sdb'
and it came out with the same thing.
I am so frustrated because it is the right damn location and the file
is there, why can't it find it!?
Someone please help, there must be someone with the same problem as
me.
SD Card: sandisk 16GB
it's inserted in a USB multicard reader as well (is that a problem?)
