Hi, I have successfully debianized a Seagate Dockstar a long time ago, and wanted to do the same thing to two other Dockstars. I followed the guide at [1] but when I try to boot, the last output is always:
Marvell>> bootm 0x00800000 0x01100000 ## Booting image at 00800000 ... Image Name: Debian kernel Created: 2011-03-15 3:04:25 UTC Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) Data Size: 1433576 Bytes = 1.4 MB Load Address: 00008000 Entry Point: 00008000 Verifying Checksum ... OK OK ## Loading Ramdisk Image at 01100000 ... Image Name: debian-installer ramdisk Created: 2011-03-15 3:04:26 UTC Image Type: ARM Linux RAMDisk Image (gzip compressed) Data Size: 3167658 Bytes = 3 MB Load Address: 00000000 Entry Point: 00000000 Verifying Checksum ... OK Starting kernel ... Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel. Then no output occurs, the orange led is constantly lit and I have to reset the dockstar. Caputuring ethernet traffic for a couple of minutes also shows no activity. The same behaviour happens on two different dockstars, so I assume it is no hardware failure. After a reset, the dockstar boots into uboot just fine. I can install different uboot versions as well. Always the same problem: no more output after "booting the kernel". I have also tried to restore the original firmware ([2]), with almost the same results, except that the orange led is flashing in that case. Any thoughts?
