Corruption in Sabre Lite Android R13.4-GA SD card image

Former Member
Former Member over 12 years ago

Hello,

 

I recently grabbed the Android R13.4-GA SD card image for the Sabre Lite from here:

    http://www.element14.com/community/community/knode/dev_platforms_kits/element14_dev_kits/sabrelite#

 

After clicking on the link, and logging in, I was able to download a 981MB file called "android.zip". There appears to be no corruption in this file. However, at least a couple of the files within android.zip are corrupt:

  - image/android_fs.tar.gz

- source/android-imx6-r13.3.tar.bz2

 

If these two files are corrupt, it seems possible that other files (images, etc.) within android.zip would be corrupt as well.

 

Could someone at Element14 check to see if the problem can be reproduced, and fix the android.zip if necessary?

 

Following are some checks performed on android.zip, and the corrupted files inside of that archive.

 

The android.zip file appears to be OK:

=============================

~/temp/android_13.4.1_image_from_element14$ cksum android.zip

    Can anyone comment on the source of this Android R13.4-GA release? Was this put together by Element14? By Freescale themselves? Linaro?

    I'm not sure where the one of the e14 page came from, but there are various builds including Android over at the Boundary devices page http://boundarydevices.com/imx6-builds/

     

    Maybe you want http://boundarydevices.com/i-mx6-images-for-branch-r13-4-1/

     

    As I've said in other threads, the Boundary guys seem to be taking a much more active role in iMX6 stuff than e14 and their blog is well worth watching.

    Thanks for the pointer to Boundary. It certainly does contain a lot of useful info.

    I tried to post links to most of the useful sabre-lite stuff I could find. If you search the rest of the posts in this group you'll find even more useful stuff.

    I grabbed the updated android.zip from the same link as in my original post. I'm still seeing the same problem. There's corruption in the following files:

    - image/android_fs.tar.gz

    - source/android-imx6-r13.3.tar.bz2

    I had the same issue when umcompress the android-imx6-r13.3.tar.bz2. Could you reload the file?

     

     

    bzip2: Compressed file ends unexpectedly;

        perhaps it is corrupted?  *Possible* reason follows.

    bzip2: Inappropriate ioctl for device

        Input file = (stdin), output file = (stdout)

     

    It is possible that the compressed file(s) have become corrupted.

    You can use the -tvv option to test integrity of such files.

     

    You can use the `bzip2recover' program to attempt to recover

    data from undamaged sections of corrupted files.
