Denis,
Without a stuart, you will have to modify /etc/rc.modules in
"build_*/etc/rc.modules" before you create the jffs2 file system.
Uncomment the smc modules and create your root file system. When the
netstix 200xm boots up, it will attempt to get an IP address via DHCP on
the ethernet port. You should be able to look on your DHCP server to
see what it was assigned.
You should be able to SSH into that IP address with the default
username "root" and password "astlinux".
As far as I know, the gumstix/netstix is unable to boot from the CF.
In AstLinux you might be able to use the kexec function to boot a kernel
from flash, and then load another kernel from CF. However, I don't
think that the default Gumstix kernel supports kexec. The AstLinux one
does :).
Later today I will add a "make menuconfig" target for the netstix.
That should make things easier!
