Hi,
I ordered a Ben Nanonote from Tuxbrain around the middle of
November. After
a long delay caused by the Swedish postal service it arrived and
last friday
I finally got my chance to start playing around with it. I did what
every
sane (heh) hacker would do the first couple of days by spending
hours on
customizing, coding and updating the gadget.
Pretty soon I felt that despite OpenWRT being good and useful I
ought to try
an alternative: Debian. I followed the steps in the pyneo.org guide
on the
subject. The first attempt failed. After a reboot I could see the
boot
manager printing the default text about loading the kernel and then
the
screen turned black. "Oh well, kernel panic", I thought to myself,
and
booted right back into usb boot for the second attempt.
The second attempt failed even harder. After rebooting (not sure if
it even
classifies as a boot) the device the screen stayed monochrome black.
No
backlight, as far as I can tell. I popped the back lid open, removed
the
battery and sent it into usb boot. `watch lsusb`, nothing. Tried
again, and
again, and again but the tiny box is still stuck in its dark abyss.
Somehow, my attempt at installing Debian seems to have killed
whatever part
handles the usb boot. I have no good guess of how this would be
possible,
though. Is there any way for me to un-fuck-up my Nanonote? It would
really
be saddening if the journey would end like this. Any help regarding
this is
greatly appreciated.
