No, I have always used the 486 image (Bering-uClibc_5.1_i486_syslinux_serial.tar.gz) with the older 4801. I should add I tried the 486 serial image with the newer 6501 but that did not solve the problem. Theoretically the 486 image should work just fine. I did not use a Geode image with any Soekris boxes. I am sure Geode is not what I need for the Soekris net6501 since it uses an Intel atom chip, and for the Soekris net4801 box the 486 images have always worked. >Due to the fact that there exists no >Bering-uClibc_5.1_x86_64_syslinux_SERIAL.tar.gz image for the new generation >of SBC's this VGA-image >is intended for 64bit computers with vga output which >has neither your soerkis nor my PC Engines APU board. With the Soekris net6501 the Bering-uClibc_5.0.4_x86_64_syslinux_vga.tar.gz image with syslinux.cfg modified for serial works perfectly. I haven't found the lack of a serial package for x86-64 to be a problem since all I have had to do is use a vga version and edit syslinux.cfg to support serial. At least that worked for 5.0.4 and 5.0.5. I believe my problem is not serial support because I can see the first part of the boot messages up until boot fails. I suspect some module is missing, but I'm not sure how to tell. Since Leaf 5.0.4 works, maybe there's a way I can study the working configuration to get things working with 5.1.
