ljm90, No need to install u-boot yet. In addition to the information above, there is an important file that you need to post the content here. Log in to Debian (root/root), and cd /boot cat uEnv.txt And also just for information, tell me where that file came from? did you create it? during Arch installation?by bodhi - Debian

hachigo, That's still not the ideal configurtion. You still have not finalized your set up. The reason you have trouble booting with muliple drives SATA and USB: the rootfs must be labeled rootfs. Once you have only one partition with label rootfs, then it does not matter what being plugged in, or how many drives/partition there are, the system always boot correctly to that rootfs.by bodhi - Debian
hachigo, You did Step 4 while creating the rootfs: Quote4. Create uImage with embedded DTB for booting with older u-boots (2012 or earlier). Skip this step if you have installed the latest U-Boot for Kirkwood (or are installing this u-boot at the same time). Please replace kirkwood-goflexnet.dtb below with the correct DTB name for your box (see the folder /media/sdb1/boot/dts for the exby bodhi - Debian

ljm90, 1. Do you have a serial console bootlog when it was last running? It would be important to know what do you have on your system, before we can even start troubleshooting. 2. The USB converter itself usually cannot be damaged. Which wires were connected to which pins? Did you connect the 3.3V to any off the 4 pins? 3.
