Linux virtual machine:
Downloaded the largest filesystem image
Pluged in USB flash drive
Formatted to ext2 filesystem with the name nSpireDisk
Mounted to /media/nSpireDisk
In a terminal ran: tar -xvf [image filename] -C /media/nSpireDisk

I have updated ndless and all the Linux files on my calculator and the file system on the flash drive, but when it boots it comes up with a lot of errors (see attachment below, the errors have always said the same thing). The USB files are at sda (not sda1) because the read light came on with the sda command and not the sda1 version. Don't know what to do now...  Correction, now the light isn't coming on at all... Under what conditions does that bug occur with the OTG cable where it isn't recognised? Do you plug in the USB after the 10 seconds text, or does it matter? Really hope I can get this to work, because Linux on a calculator is just plain cool!

Ok, I got the kernel to work, but now the USB isn't initializing correctly because of the older boot script I have. Could someone provide me with a working USB boot script that they use? (for the new bootloader2).

What is the difference between the defconfig and expanded kernels? Do I need to do anything to either for them to work?

Ndless is installed as an OS after moving the resource files. I was asking if there was a program to essentially update ndless inside ndless. I have a makeshift solution I will try, likely tomorrow, but I was wondering if there was such a program.

What is the latest version you know works?

Thanks, I will do that. I have almost given up on TiLP, it is still not recognizing the nspire, although I have enabled unsigned drivers and manually installed the TiLP driver. I will have to bring up that issue on a TiLP thread...
EDIT: Will have to try updating ndless, still not quite working... is there a ndless program to update the OS (and therefore ndless)?

Thanks. I think I found an article that might help. It uses bcdedit.exe to do that longer-term.

How would I boot with cx_use_otg, where would I put that command? EDIT: I tried installing the USB driver for TiLP and my computer is complaining about it being unsigned... Now what?

Do you have the old version of the bootloader by any chance? If you enter the bootloader (without the script), and use the mach command, what does it give you?
It says "Machine ID is set to 3503" Is there more than one version of Linux bootloader v2? I have gotten Linux to work before with an older kernel, likely an older bootloader, and an initrd. Also, I had an older version of TiLP, so that may have been my problem.

Which instructions are those? I installed it today, but something went wrong, so I probably didn't follow them.

I have ndless v3.1 beta r557 installed on my calculator.
Is there a way to install an OS without the Student Software?
EDIT: found TiLP, so upgrading ndless may be an option

Non-CAS, and it never reaches any point past the bootloader.
Would the ndless version make a difference? I can't update it with the software I have.

What happens when using the new kernels, with or without using an initrd:
Bootloader starts
Loads kernel
[Loads initrd if using initrd]
Boots (well, trys too...)
Halts and displays random pixels about 3-5 pixels wide on the right side

kernel linux/zImage.tns
cmdline root=/dev/sda earlyprintk debug console=tty0 console=ttyAMA0,115200n8 rootdelay=10
boot
The latest kernels are not working for me.
