At the moment, the 2.6.15-1-nslu2 Debian kernel is not automatically written to flash. I've also not tried DebianSlug so I've no idea if they already have a script to do that or how they handle kernel upgrades. > Is there a "vanilla Debian" way yet? Yes, almost. beta2 of debian-installer, due in about two weeks, will support the NSLU2. There are a number of things that are still missing, but it's basically working. See http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/ Anyway, sooner or later, vanilla Debian and debian-installer will supersede DebianSlug (or become DebianSlug) but there are still some rough edges (such as the kernel not being flashed automatically; I can tell you how to do it on a Debian system though, but I know nothing about DebianSlug). > My original intention was to produce two - one of each endianness - > but I think I'll stick to one for now :) I started building some armeb packages so you could run the installer and do a basic install, but the box I have is way too slow and while someone promised me access to a faster one this hasn't happened yet. I'd just stay with little-endian ARM for now. > I'm also interested in installing Etch on an old RISC machine I have :) RiscPC? -- Martin Michlmayr http://www.cyrius.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
