Talk:Maemo Getting Started

I couldn't get make_rootfs.sh script running after trying different computers and ubuntu + sbox combinations. The reason was really stupid. For some non-logical reasong I tried to strip out possible windows new lines using sed from script and BAM it started working. The error message that it gave before that was './make_rootfs.sh: No such file or directory' but after removing windows newlines it worked. That script should be updated on this page with a version that does not have windows newlines since they seem to be fatal to sbox.

Hi, Jarkko, I met the same problem, thanks for the hint. I used "dos2unix make_rootfs.sh", it worked. (to install, "apt-get install tofrodos")

Thanks Jarkko and Linamm for the input. We are in the middle or moving all the scripts to Maemo garage and we will update them during the move...
