Re: Migration to Debian from Arch - Armv5 Kirkwood boards - 8 weeks ago
pm4888, What you did was creating a Debian debootstrap rootfs. But you also need to install a kernel to run it. There are several more steps to be done before you can use this debootstrap rootfs. That was the reason I created a basic rootfs and provided it for general consumption. =========== There are 3 differerent paths to get this box running. 1.

QuoteIndeed can I make a live tar as for your post without having any problem during the tar process ? What Mijzelf show above should work fine. That tar command will exclude everything, only the rootfs is archived (things such as user's /home will be excluded). You can even use cp to copy the live rootfs, but you'd need to make sure to prepare a few things before running the cp coby bodhi - Debian

Re: Zyxel NAS326 Installation Instruction - 2 months ago
OK. Try: fw_setenv curr_bootfrom 2 fw_setenv next_bootfrom 1 fw_setenv change_boot_part 1 If you alternatively modify the curr_bootfrom and next_bootfrom a few times (2 to 1 and 1 to 2) and still no boot, then I think you will need to connect serial console. There might be some different behavior that we cannot see without serial console.by bodhi - Debian
Re: Zyxel NAS326 Installation Instruction - 2 months ago
Markeli, Make sure that you were root when you extract the tarball into the USB drive. su - If you did that, then try this, 1. Plug in the USB rootfs to the front USB port. 2. In stock OS, set this env fw_setenv change_boot_part 1 fw_printenv and reboot. If it still boot stock OS, log in and set it again fw_setenv change_boot_part 1 fw_printenv and reboot.

Re: ASUS - 17.3" Chromebook - Intel Celeron N4500 - 4GB Memory - 32GB eMMC - Transparent Silver US $149 - 2 months ago
Joey, Chromebook run ChromeOS (the BIOS is set that way). But the hack allows you to boot Linux on USB. In general, BIOS can boot a Linux or Windows system on USB. So it is possible to boot Windows, too, if you can find the specific instruction for it. Don't buy before you research and found the instruction. Also, there is a Chrome Recovery procedure to flash the BIOS back toby bodhi - Off-Topic
