[edit] Make a bootable SD card
Take an SD card of at least 1 GB from which all information may be deleted. I installed Hackable:1 on the SD card by following these instructions: http://www.hackable1.org/wiki/Installation
[edit] Boot from your SD card
Press and hold AUX button while pressing the power button. Select the second option to boot from the SD card.
[edit] Mount the file system that resides on your flash memory
mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock6 /mnt/flash/
[edit] Do your thing to make your phone booting again
For example:
- Check the file system
- Do an opkg upgrade of a broken operating system
chroot /mnt/flash opkg update chroot /mnt/flash opkg upgrade
- Backup some directories
scp -r root@192.168.0.202:/mnt/flash/etc/freesmartphone/opim backupdir
