unlock GoFlex Net and 'too old Kernel' issue

Hi

I am trying to unlock our GoFlex Net and debianize it but there is small surprise along. Jeff's script from here (http://projects.doozan.com/debian/) more precisely, './kirkwood.debian-wheezy.sh' code here (https://github.com/shaggyone/pogoplug/blob/master/kirkwood.debian-wheezy.sh) stops.

Our GFN is

 Pogoplug:/tmp$ uname -a
Linux Pogoplug 2.6.22.18 #81 Tue Oct 19 16:05:00 PDT 2010 armv5tejl unknown

And here is the error:

I: Extracting zlib1g...
W: Failure trying to run: chroot /tmp/debian mount -t proc proc /proc
debootstrap failed.
See /tmp/debian/debootstrap/debootstrap.log for more information.

The debootstrap.log contains the followings:

FATAL: kernel too old

We I try to run it manually from prompt both chroot we get same error:

Pogoplug:/tmp$ ls -lsa /usr/sbin/chroot
   0 lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root           17 Apr 19  2010 /usr/sbin/chroot -> ../../bin/busybox
Pogoplug:/tmp$ /usr/sbin/chroot /tmp/debian mount -t proc proc /proc
FATAL: kernel too old

or

Pogoplug:/tmp$ ls -lsa /tmp/debian/usr/sbin/chroot
  32 -rwxr-xr-x    1 root     root        30368 Jan 26  2013 /tmp/debian/usr/sbin/chroot
Pogoplug:/tmp$ /tmp/debian/usr/sbin/chroot /tmp/debian mount -t proc proc /proc
FATAL: kernel too old

Any ideas how to move forward from this? Others may have experienced similar issues?

Thank you in anticipation of your help,

Rgds,

enki,

Jeff has stopped maintaining kirkwood.debian-wheezy.sh. It no longer works reliably. Just use my latest rootfs (3.16 or 3.17) from:
http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096

Since you ran this wheezy script, you have updated u-boot to 2011.x, and it will work fine with the latest rootfs.

Bohdi,

Thanks. Indeed mtd0 was written with Jeff's uboot. The uboot's environment values are quite different than the ones I am used with.

Another quick question: can I replace it with one of your latest uboot as described here?

http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,12381

such as the following?
uboot.2014.07-tld-2.goflexnet.bodhi.tar
md5:
0e24d7ccfdb6fd01de5d922ae1f1aaf4

and after this to follow the instructions you've just recommended, as described here ? http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096

with this one?
Download at Dropbox:
Debian-3.14.0-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2
md5:
3c55093a67ea6166b31c9d111d896727

Waiting for you answers before doing anything stupid,

Rgds,

Rgds,

enki,

Yes, you can install new u-boot and then boot with the new rootfs. Please make sure to follow the instruction exactly in the u-boot thread (beware of bad blocks... etc). And keep the entire log of the installtion. If you'd like, post the log here before rebooting with new rootfs.

Bodhi,

I have update uBoot and usb rootfs to the most recent ones. All worked ok.

Thank you for support.
