Hi, I am looking for Kernel source and kernel config for c93_h6_2f, this source might be usable on Coby Amlogic AML8726-MX Dual Core tablets. These tablets are different than Ainol Amlogic, those are g06, I need g04 source, which c93_h6_2f, w17pro and w13pro has. I have been unable to get a kernel config from w17pro or w13pro, so I am trying to get one for c93_h6_2f.

Any help is appreciated.

adb shell

cat /proc/cpuinfo

In Hardware section shows what the kernel will boot on.

Code:
 cat /proc/cpuinfo
Processor	: ARMv7 Processor rev 0 (v7l)
processor	: 0
BogoMIPS	: 191.06

You may have seen this, I've been looking over documentation at the Amlogic openlinux site. Not sure what version, but supposed to be kernel source released in aug 2012 there:

Amlogic openlinux - Amlogic openlinux
Added

Not sure what MX version here:

http://openlinux.amlogic.com/Android/Tablet/MX_422_ReleaseInfo/way_for_get_4.2.2_code

Lots of info.
Yes I know about this site.

You can't get source from this site, I guess you haven't tried? they explain how to get the source but don't explain you must be a company or employee of amlogic to get this code. So this site to the common person is useless.

I have found a source code that does work partially, still needs work, I am hoping omarahum provides me with the kernel setting I asked him for, and it works on my kernel, if all goes well the 7065 will at least have a good recovery kernel without time limits. Well the kernel I built does provide that now just needs a data setting from 1GB to 2GB, I read omarahum posts, that he has made a kernel that has the 2Gb setting, so I need to know what this setting is to add to my kernel.

I used cheeyee's instructions on partitions on XDA - [DEV] unofficial CyanogenMod 9/ClockworkMod Recovery 5 for Amlogic AML8726-M tablets - Page 9 - xda-developers
(I don't know how to work with source files, I'm not a Linux user, I hex edited the kernel and recovery using johane's instructions on SlateDroid - Fixed kernel, with working camera and 1.0Ghz - SlateDroid.com )

Hope that helps....

Thanks, not what I am looking for, I have found what I think is the problem, but haven't found a solution.

Basically the new kernel doesn't include factory, so this forces the kernel to step down a partition and mount wrong partition, starting with cache.

Factory kernel
Code:
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00800000 00200000 "bootloader"
mtd1: 00800000 00400000 "logo"
mtd2: 00800000 00400000 "aml_logo"
mtd3: 00800000 00400000 "recovery"
mtd4: 00800000 00400000 "boot"
mtd5: 20000000 00400000 "system"
mtd6: 08000000 00400000 "factory"
mtd7: 20000000 00400000 "cache"
mtd8: 90000000 00400000 "userdata"
mtd9: 123000000 00400000 "NFTL_Part"

Custom Kernel
Code:
dev:    size   erasesize  name
mtd0: 00800000 00200000 "bootloader"
mtd1: 00800000 00400000 "logo"
mtd2: 00800000 00400000 "aml_logo"
mtd3: 00800000 00400000 "recovery"
mtd4: 00800000 00400000 "boot"
mtd5: 40400000 00400000 "system"
mtd6: 10000000 00400000 "cache"
mtd7: 40000000 00400000 "userdata"
mtd8: 16cc00000 00400000 "NFTL_Part"

Yeah, sorry, that's beyond my abilities....

You'd need someone familiar with the source files...
I have a C93 H6_1f tablet, and that only has 4 partitions....
Good luck!
