* Mikael Rudberg [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008-04-21 21:53]: Do you remember which version? Unfortunately not, however i think i pulled the image from your site at the same time i installed it March 16 2007 Strange. The kernel partition on all debian-installer images should be 0016 rather than 0014. I only know one other person who had 0014 (see #464958) and we're not sure which image he used to install. Anyway, let's hope this is just a very unusual case. To fix it, I suggest: - Backup your flash with: cat /dev/mtdblock? mtd-backup - Save that file somewhere - Download http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/files/sda1-2.6.18.dfsg.1-18etch1 - Boot it and check /proc/mtd to see how large the kernel partition is. It should be 0016 now. - Run flash-kernel to flash 2.6.24. Does that work? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

I'll try that but i'm unsure what you mean by booting it, do you want me to upslug the image ? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?

Debian Upgrade Woes
Hi All As I can telnet to the, beast in upgrade mode, but it unresponsive, is there anything I can type while the telnet connection is active to allow upslug2 to see the slug ?.

Re: Debian Upgrade Woes
If you can get into upgrade mode (alternating red/green led), then it is *extremely* unlikely that your slug is bricked. Once it's in upgrade mode, the redboot telnet interface cli command parser is not operable - that is normal. Note that the SerComm upgrade protocol which upslug2 implements uses a non-standard ethernet packet type (i.e. lower level than IP packets), so is *highly* susceptible to filtering by network devices. Don't assume upslug2 is not working until you have tried a direct cross-over cable connection between the slug and a Linux host that is not running a firewall. Even being able to ping a device (which is one level above IP) is not a guarantee that something in your network is filtering upgrade ethernet packets (which are one level below IP). -- Rod -Original Message- From: Richard [EMAIL PROTECTED] Date: Wednesday, Apr 23, 2008 3:49 am Subject: Debian Upgrade Woes To: debian-arm@lists.debian.org Hi All As I can telnet to the, beast in upgrade mode, but it unresponsive, is there anything I can type while the telnet connection is active to allow upslug2 to see the slug ?.
