It might be worth upgrading u-boot just in case.  These instructions
are still correct:
https://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug/uboot-upgrade/

(It's not the latest version of u-boot, but it is one that worked for
a long of people.  Rick Thomas agreed to test the latest and report
back.  I will update my web site accordingly.)

I'm not sure about ext4, but we generally recommend a separate /boot
partition with ext2 and that's IIRC what the guided partitioner
creates.

I let the installer reformat and repartition the pendrive, with /boot as 
ext2 and / as ext4, and D11 installed successuflly.


Lessons learned:

1. If the pendrive has an MBR, convert it to GPT

2. On a computer, perform a full test to check for backblocks

3. Uboot might not support ext4, so either upgrade or use ext2 for /boot

Thanks all!

Re: Debian 11 on Sheevaplug?

[Rick Thomas]

Hi Giles,
It really looks like the version of uboot you're using only understands ext2 
(and fat, most likely, but I'm not sure that helps you in this situation)

Try dropping back to ext2 for anything that needs to be accessed by uboot.
Enjoy!

The ``bad block bitmap checksum'' relating to /dev/sda2, followed by

After that point nothing's going to work because your new root
filesystem (/target/) is faulty, and is now read-only, so there's no way
to create the /target/boot directory, so the mount of the boot partition
fails.

My guess would be an underlying hardware fault on whatever /dev/sda2 is.

Can you go back to the main menu when this happens and open a shell

It ends with a single error : "partman: mkswap: can't open '/dev/sda5':

I then ran the D11 installer on another, 4GB USB keydrive. The installer

Unfortunately, I can't remember why I didn't update the page.
Normally I update my pages or add a note that newer releases are no
longer supported, but I've done neither with the Sheevaplug pages and
I can't remember why.

Gilles, if you could test Debian 11 and report back, I'll go ahead and
update the pages.

I remember that u-boot in Debian buster was broken (see
; I'm not
sure if that was fixed in a later point release or not); it would be
good to know if the bullseye version works.

This mail says Sheevaplug support will be dropped *after* bullseye:

That doesn't seem to have happened yet though, see below.

I found that there are Sheevaplug installer images for bullseye,
so I suspect that Debian 11 still supports the Sheevaplug,
so Martin probably just hasn't updated the page yet and
probably using the bullseye images will work fine.

Here are the same images for Debian 12 bookworm:

Have you tried just following Martin's instructions for 10 using the 
corresponding components for 11?

I'd like to do the same thing (upgrade to 11) on my SheevaPlug.  Maybe I'll try 
that.

Enjoy!

Debian 11 on Sheevaplug?

[Gilles]

Hello,

A search in the archives returned no hits.

Martin Michlmayr's page* shows how to install Debian 10 on a USB 
keydrive to run on a Sheevaplug.


Does it mean Debian 11 still isn't available for that device?

Thank you.
