Hi, I followed Bodhi's instructions for upgrading to Stretch. Everything seemed to be ok, but the boot up hangs. Through the serial console I can see the booting stops at "fsck.ext3: No such file or directory while trying to open /dev/root Possibly non-existent device?" I can resume the boot by CTRL+D and after that the system starts just fine. Is there a way to recover or do Iby nibbler - Debian
One more (stupid) question: how do I need to adjust my mtdparts? fw_printenv mtdparts mtdparts=mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data) cat /etc/fw_env.config # MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size Number of sectors /dev/mtd0 0xc0000 0x20000 0x20000 cat /proc/mtd dev: size erasesize name mtd0: 00100000 00020000 "u-boot&qby nibbler - Debian

Now I managed to get Debian up and running without touching the u-boot envs. I had to use a usb stick with two partition and the Debian-3.16.0-kirkwood-tld-2 rootfs. I don't understand why the newer rootfs packages don't boot and why I need two partitions? Also on a cold boot the hw-watchdog kicks in and the device keeps resetting itself.

Hi, I have a Arch Linux installation on my NSA 325 (booting from the sata HD). The device has a stock Marvell U-Boot 1.1.4. Now I wanted to run Debian from USB, but I can't get it working. First I set the device to boot from the USB with the "usb-debian-uboot.tar.gz". Then I installed the system following the instructions from here and using a single ext3 partition.
