According to instructions in the section 16 Dec 2023 we make uImage but not uInitrd, do I need also do something like this: mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n initramfs-6.6.2-mvebu-tld-1 -d initrd.img-6.6.2-mvebu-tld-1 uInitrd or I should leave uInitrd by default from tarball?

So I need a PC or laptop with some Linux to prepare USB (like in the section 16 Dec 2023), then boot WD MyCloud with this USB and then I can do this manual https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=pl&tl=en&u=http://osowiecki.net/debian-na-wd-my-cloud-2-gen/ , right?

That's exactly the distro I wanted to install. But I have a new hard drive with no any OS on it and need to boot from a USB. What do I need to do to do that? Copy uImage and uRamdisk from Debian-6.6.2-mvebu-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (16 Dec 2023) to USB and boot from it?by doppelgospelhm - Debian
