I have a similar problem on my pinkpogo. I have /boot on sda1 and the rootfs on sda2, ext3. I've set usb_root=/dev/sda2 and usb_rootfstype=ext3, but it looks like the archlinux kernel is ignoring the usb_root because when I look at the kernel booting over the serial line I see: [ 21.337460] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unkno wn-block(8,1) Theby dynamic_hamster - uBoot
Hi, is there a way to relocate the stock pogo uImage and rootfs to USB and have it boot from there ? I wanted to try out optware but thought to do it non-destructively from the USB. I made a filesystem on sda1 and dumped the uImage from mtd1 into /boot/uImage, and then copied the jffs rootfs on mtd2 into the same sda1 filesystem .
