**** BEGIN LOGGING AT Sun Dec 19 02:59:57 2010 Dec 19 17:22:10 Hi, I got it managed to install a debian sid on a USB hard drive with debootstrap --foreign --arch armel. But it fails to boot after I followed to this description until run bootcmd while setting bootargs: http://blog.bofh.it/debian/id_265 The problem is a kernel panic suggesting the following: 1f00 1024 mtdblock0 (driver?) 1f01 2048 mtdblock1 (driver?) and 1f02 521216 mtdblock2 (driver?). Any help? Dec 19 17:26:03 lollisoft: try adding 'rootwait' to bootargs_misc Dec 19 17:29:22 What does the suggested lines including mtdblock mean? And how to ensure a kernel is installed? I do not see one in the /boot directory. Dec 19 17:31:30 lollisoft: i'd suggest you go with tbm's doc Dec 19 17:32:03 Where is that doc? Dec 19 17:32:09 cyrius.com Dec 19 17:33:30 Ok, Ill dig into it. Thanks :-) **** ENDING LOGGING AT Mon Dec 20 02:59:58 2010
