I had PostmarketOS on this device a few years ago, and it worked with mainline kernel and console with HDMI and USB keyboard minus a few features (WiFi, GPU). I built a new image expecting it to at least work as well as it did. #### What's the current behaviour? Ouya boot menu fails to chain-load PostmarketOS boot.img because it is now [too large](https://github.com/milaq/ouya_bootmenu/blob/master/bootmenu.c#L29) (~12MB) due to additional initramfs. The mainline kernel is actually _smaller_ than downstream. The same boot.img will boot the device just fine if it is loaded with `fastboot boot`. #### How to reproduce your issue? 1. `pmbootstrap init` 2. `pmbootstrap install` 3. `pmbootstrap flasher flash_rootfs --partition userdata` 4. Boot up the Ouya and select "Bootloader" from the menu. Wait for flash to finish. 5. `pmbootstrap export` 6. Reboot Ouya and select "Recovery" from the menu. 7. Mount `/system` within Recovery. 8. `adb push /tmp/postmarketOS-export/boot.img /system/boot.img` 9. Reboot Ouya with "Normal Boot" selected. Boot will fail and the device will go into fastboot mode. At this point you're stuck. It is possible to boot the system successfully using: `fastboot boot /tmp/postmarketOS-export/boot.img` ### What device are you using? ouya-ouya ### On what postmarketOS version did you encounter the issue? * [x] edge (`master` branch) * [x] I confirm that the issue still is present after running `sudo apk upgrade -a` ### On what environment did you encounter the issue? #### Environments * [x] Other: console ### Which init system are you using? * [x] OpenRC ### How did you get postmarketOS image? * [x] I built it using pmbootstrap ### What's the build date of the image?
