Sorry Nok, that was 5 years ago…

You’re right. Looks like he can’t find the paths. You can just try a different version of clonezilla or ask someone else for advice. Unfortunately, I can no longer help you here.

Good luck!

Read Page 1 and do not stop at Blondak’s description. It’s not that much.

Edit:

type sudo sh mkroot.sh

[Werner]

You have to be superuser. Read the whole page 1 of this topic from the beginning and follow the steps one by one.

Blondak attached it in his post on page 1.

Did you already figure out how to do this? I want do the same thing.

I don’t know that. But booting from stick or card can not destroy anything unless you do not execute any scripts or commands. Give it a try!

[Werner]

Hello Wim,

I was able to enter a “secure boot mode” or something similar by pushing some buttons simultaneously while booting. No idea how I did this, but I uninstalled the Exposed Framework in this mode and my tablet works fine again.

But for future issues: do you know how to recover?

Thanks and greetings from Germany

Hello marcorsica,

you have to type sudo sh mkroot.sh to be a superuser with admin privilegs.

OT:

We only need a solution to the SD card problem to get that device perfect. Unfortunately, Windows finds the card only after a few reboots with extracted card, if you were previously on Android. But that’s a Windows problem.

[Werner]

It works now. Lubuntu did not find the partitions, so I installed Clonezilla on another USB drive.
Here are some hints:
– My USB drive was created with LiLi (Linux Live Creator) in the Windows of the W3F.
– The correct path is cd /lib/live/mount/medium/mkroot
– The script must be executed with sudo and there is no message when it is run properly.
I thank you very much for your work. So the Android OS of the tablet is finally usable.

[Werner]

I will give it a try.

How did you create your clonezilla stick?

[Werner]

Hi Blondak,

I don’t get that fu…g Stick to boot Clonezilla. But I still have a Lubuntu 15.10 running from USB in persistent mode. Would it be possible to run your script in a terminal with Lubuntu?

Thank you!

[Werner]

With Paragon ExtFS for Windows I can read and write the Android partitions when Windows is running. But still have no idea how to get root access.

[Werner]

Thanks, Nils.

There must be other ways to root this device. I don’t want to build a spaceship out of my tablet.

I think, when I find a possibility (perhaps the right BIOS settings?) to connect it to a PC all would be fine.
