beausoleil, > This is frustrating as hell. Still having trouble > with nc… Remember that you are running an old version of u-Boot. u-Boot netconsole has been buggy up until the latest u-Boot :) so I would say if you install the new u-Boot by running Jeff's script, then netconsole will be much more reliable. Still, there were reports about intermittent problems with it. Doby bodhi - uBoot

Malc, Nice! thanks for sharing. I've looked at CE source code before, hoping I can extract the part where SATA interface is initialized to create a patch for the latest u-Boot code. That was not easy :) the code is quite different comparing to the current u-Boot code. I shelved the idea since it would take too much time.by bodhi - uBoot

Yes indeed! the released tarball has everything you need to build the same kernel.by bodhi - Debian
Guys, The Goflex Home/Net and Pogoplug V4/Mobile plugs use a power supply which is 5V 1.5A/2A, and has a male barrel jack (is that what it called?) that plugs into the plug rear female jack. Anybody knows the size of this power jack? is 5.5x2.5mm male a correct description? Thanks!by bodhi - Off-Topic
The approach I took is really simple: 1. Use busbox-syslogd to log all system events to RAM 2. Move all frequently writes to /tmp. Set all system daemons output to log files in /tmp (i.e. RAM). 3. Use command iotop -o -b -qqq to log all disk writes over period of time to make sure that all the logging are actually going to RAM. 4. If using swap, allocate swap file to hard disk.

Buttzy, It's much more complicate than that. See this thread by tsunulukai for a really good description of the procedure: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,12261,12261#msg-12261 One thing I did different from tsunulukai was I did not use tftp.

Even without seeing the rest of the boot log, I think your problem is with the rootfs type. See this solution: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,14982,14994#msg-14994 If that still does not get it to boot into Debian, then I need to examine the bootlog again. And no, there is no need to change any thing in the rootfs. Even fstab change is only a precaution (not really needed if the rootfsby bodhi - uBoot

kiryl, Sorry, I'm not familiar with gitk! I've download this patch and tried to compile it on the 2013.10 U-Boot. Because this patch was for on an older U-Boot, so I am having some errors. I will try again when I have time.by bodhi - uBoot

@Dave & Ron, I'll include the requested config options in the next release. You can test it, then! @Dave, I saw some unchecked config switches under HID. Perhaps include them will cover your UPS.
