That was wrong. You want to format the partition (sda is the whole disk). Should be
I must have used the wrong expression. It does boot all the way to the login promt.Quote

It should be able to boot all the way to the Debian login prompt if the disk was correctly formatted. So redo it one more time with my correction above.

Congrats! you're almost done.

The reason the reboot does not work because you have not set up the u-boot envs to boot automatically and save them to flash.

But in the mean time, you should be OK to explore and install Debian packages that you want to use

And first thing you should do is to create a swap file on this USB rootfs

Use another USB flash drive to create the rootfs again, using the latest rootfs Debian-5.13.8-mvebu-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (28 Sept 2021). See if you can boot it exactly the same way as with your current Debian-5.2.9-mvebu-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 rootfs.
