I am running the x86-64 version of Bering 5.0.4 very successfully on a Soekris net6501 used as a router. I was able to upgrade (mostly) successfully to 5.0.5. However I cannot get 5.1 or 5.1.1 RC1 to boot. I am booting with a Sandisk 16gb USB using Syslinux 4.0.5. The tail end of the boot message is quoted below. (The error about "can't load module pata_legacy" is apparently moot because I get that message even when the boot is successful with 5.0.4.)
The error below is similar to the error mentioned in the documentation in "Bering-uClibc 5.x - User Guide - Appendices - Upgrading from Bering-uClibc 4.x" but that cites the problem of using an older Syslinux version, which I am not. Also, I have tried the 486 and 686 versions of Bering with the same results. I would appreciated any suggestions or reports that others have gotten 5.1 to work with the Soekris net6501 and if so, how it was done. I have been running Leaf for a very long time on a variety of boxen and have until now always managed to upgrade. Thanks, Tim Wegner Tail end of boot messages via the serial console follow: [ 4.660769] ata2: SATA max UDMA/133 abar m1024@0xa0004400 port 0xa0004580 irq 40 [ 4.965168] ata1: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) [ 5.270116] ata2: SATA link down (SStatus 0 SControl 300) [ 5.494156] Clocksource tsc unstable (delta = 686979561 ns) [ 5.527693] Switching to clocksource refined-jiffies [ 5.735242] scsi2 : pata_legacy [ 5.754691] ata3: PATA max PIO4 cmd 0x1f0 ctl 0x3f6 irq 14 [ 5.972054] scsi3 : pata_legacy [ 5.979077] ata4: PATA max PIO4 cmd 0x170 ctl 0x376 irq 15 modprobe: can't load module pata_legacy (pata_legacy.ko.gz): No such device LINUXRC: Looking for leaf.cfg...
