GameRunner is an Openmoko Linux distribution. It convert the Freerunner open mobile phone into a Linux-based handheld game console. It is simple, and contains cool open source games suitable for Linux mobile devices.
Installing GameRunner on your MicroSD Card:
At least, a 512MB MicroSD is required.
If you use uBoot, you need to create two partitions. First partition, not so big, in FAT16 or ext2 where you have to place the kernel file (uImage.bin) and second partition in ext2 where you have to uncompress the filesystem file (gamerunner-rootfs-0.1.tar.gz). Some uBoot version reads the “uimage” kernel image file (yes, without .bin and “i” )
If you use Qi, you only need an ext2 partition into your µSD Card where you uncompress the filesystem image file (gamerunner-rootfs-0.1.tar.gz). In this case Qi Bootloader is going to look for the kernel image into the /boot directory for file named uImage-GTA02.bin, so copy the kernel file (uImage.bin) with that name under /boot.
