Also, is there a way to type "nano fstab" instead of "nano /etc/fstab", same with other files...isn't it a shortcut of symbolic link or something? Thank you, Danniiby Dannii - Debian
Been trying to find a solution since I compiled netatalk (what a mission!) and plugged in 3 other USB's. There's actually about 6 partitions on two of the drives and 3 on the other, 1 on my rootfs. Can anyone offer some help? It does boot but it takes longer due to scanning the drives and knowing my luck I'm expecting it to mess up! The last thing I changed was: fw_setenvby Dannii - Debian
@restamp, that's why I was considering the rescue system, although I have read some amazing things... I miss not being able to boot into something when I can't boot a usb! If the rescue system is too much of a challenge, yes, I would love that file please. I don't mind looking but will the instructions on the 1st page help with that file? Quite new to all this :P Also restamp, yby Dannii - uBoot
tried pogo to pogo and restarted router :( this was on the other post but think you replied before I finished typing it.... *edit* tried and failed. Can't get netconsole working! Only choice now is the usb to ttl. Unless reinstalling on my flash drive that isn't working, somehow helps.

Spent hours trying all different combinations found in the forum and elsewhere... via mac, alarm on the other pogo, no firewall on mac so it wasn't that, when I install netcat via brew, it installed the gnu one, still everything I try doesn't work. Theres two things I can try... restart my router and use ubuntu in parallels - didn't really want to do this, but I can. The finalby Dannii - uBoot
Still trying to get this to work. I thought I was going insane then I realised I'm not the only one lol. Installed netcat via brew: brew install netcat now I have more options: nc --help GNU netcat 0.7.1, a rewrite of the famous networking tool. Basic usages: connect to somewhere: nc hostname port ... listen for inbound: nc -l -p port ... tunnel to somewhere: ncby Dannii - uBoot
Thank you bodhi. My ips were fine, its just that last bit that I'm having trouble with lol. $ nc -lup 6666 192.168.0.15 6666 nc: cannot use -p and -l $ nc -lu 6666 192.168.0.15 6666 nc: getaddrinfo: nodename nor servname provided, or not known Working from mac. I'll just keep testing... Thank you again :)by Dannii - uBoot
I also tried just 'nc -up 6666 192.168.0.xx 6666' before reboot. No joy.

*edit* I cannot believe I did not think of this, how embarrassing! I'm connected by ssh to debian now :D I'll keep this one as a little rescue usb. Thank you very much bodhi :) I'll get netconsole running, definitely first thing. I have no problem starting again with my main usb and leaving alarm in favour of latest debian from the thread you gave. I set up netconsole, withby Dannii - uBoot
