I'm trying to get my iop32x-based storage device to boot to a debian installer. I've downloaded the various files from http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/squeeze/main/installer-armel/current/images/iop32x/netboot/, but attempting to load them in the RedBoot prompt gives me these errors:
RedBoot> load initrd.gz Using default protocol (TFTP) Unrecognized image type: 0x8088b1f RedBoot> load n2100.bin Using default protocol (TFTP) Unrecognized image type: 0xa8d315c6 RedBoot> load ss4000e.pkg Using default protocol (TFTP) Unrecognized image type: 0x37333138 RedBoot> load vmlinuz-2.6.30-2-iop32x Using default protocol (TFTP) Unrecognized image type: 0xe1a00000 For everything but the initrd.gz, that "image type" is the first four bytes of the file; I have no idea where the image type is coming from in the initrd.gz. Which of these files would I be loading for redboot to start a debian network install? The "fis list" command shows that I already have an initrd and a kernel in the flash, but I don't think that just overwriting those would get an installer running (even if I could load them, which I can't because RedBoot doesn't recognize the image types). Can anybody lend some advice on what I need to do to proceed? I had expected some sort of "boot this tftp image" command the way that PXE booting on x86 works, but I'm not seeing that in any RedBoot documentation.
