 When i powerup my Freerunner and than press AUX to start the bootmenu it

 doesn't always show the possible bootable partitions. I tried it 15
 times and in 7 cases it shows all three bootable partitions on my
 sd-card. In the other 8 cases it only shows poweroff in the bootmenu.
 And the cases when it worked and when not seemed randomly distributed.
 
 Is this a bug or do i have to do something else to get it working all
 the time?

It could be that the sd card is not yet ready when the bootmenu
is started.

The following commit which isn't included in the pre build binaries
should help for the second stage part.

You could try tweaking the first stage kernel parameters (rootdelay=...).

Once I find some time I will update everything to 2.6.34 and give it
some more testing. However I am currently quite busy.

Thanks,
Marc

I have three bootable partitions with ext3 on each of them on my sd-card
(shr-u, debian, gamerunner).

Ciao,
