Ouya Bootmenu development/release thread.
Because of the fact that the Ouya doesn't have recovery accessibility via hardware buttons we need to play safe and utilise chainbooting.
This bootmenu resides in the kernel partition and is loaded on every normal bootup.
In-depth info in Hal9k's thread here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2499673.
It presents various choices on every boot:
- Normal boot - (default) loads bootimage from system partition (/system/boot.img)
- Alternate boot - loads bootimage from sdcard (/sdcard/altboot.img)
- Recovery - reboots into recovery (recovery partition)
- Failsafe - loads built-in legacy recovery
- Bootloader - Reboots into stock bootloader (for fastboot access - USE WITH CARE)
And remember: After flashing this you DON'T NEED TO EVER touch your boot/LNX partition again Quote:
Installation
Quote:
You need to have a newer CWM recovery installed in order to flash the bootmenu.
READ AND UNDERSTAND what you are doing!
This bootmenu is flashed over your current bootimage (you will need to relocate your kernel (to /system/boot.img) if you not using a custom rom)
1a.) If you already have an older custom recovery installed:
Boot into your recovery and flash http://milaq.exnet.me/downloads/ouya...0.4.7-ouya.zip. This will update your recovery to a newer version allowing you to flash the bootmenu regularly.
1b.) If you don't have a custom recovery installed:
You can either use the one-click installer from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2295645 and continue with step 1a.
Or you can flash a newer recovery via fastboot (if you know what you are doing): http://milaq.exnet.me/downloads/ouya...0.4.7-ouya.img
2.) Flash the bootmenu by installing the latest updatezip (download below). Make sure that the installation procedure was successful.
If you get a "MD5 mismatch" your download is probably broken. Just redownload and try again. The installscript checks the md5's mutliple times while installing and reflashes your old bootimage in case something goes wrong.
So if you are not doing something REALLY stupid this is safe to go.
