PRS-T2 How to boot PRS-T2 from SD card?

Hi I"m having some problems trying to get my PRS-T2 to boot from SD.

I tried the tutorials and some workarounds but I don't know what to do maybe someone can help?

Should I be doing this from a terminal on Linux? But then what directory should I be in on the imaged SD card or the internal memory of the PRS? I mainly tried from serial connection to recovery.

This is how to rebuild the initrd (on PC Linux):
I tried
Code:

[root (ttyGS0)]# find | cpio -H newc -R 0:0 -o > ../initrd_new.cpio
but get
Quote:

-sh: ../initrd_new.cpio: Read-only file system
So I remounted sd and tried to use that directory but still get this:

Quote:

find | cpio -H newc -R 0:0 -o > /initrd/mnt/sd/initrd_new.cpio
-sh: cpio: command not found
I also tried using the modified uboot_new but its for the PRS-T1 so it may not work? So then I tried using a hexedit to change what looked different from my uboot backup but still nothing. I used a DD imaged SD card from the internal eMMC. Are there changes that need to be made on the SD card for it to work? Sorry a bit all over the place but I'm pretty confused now.

I was hoping to use my own memory backup for an earlier FW since the newer ones seem to work badly.

I realize these are old and just buy a new one but I'd rather prevent these from the garbage since they work great for me?
