You will need an SD anyway to boot the kernel afaik. At least that is how I do it. I took the latest upstream kernel and cross-compiled it for the pandaboard. If needed I can dig up the kernel config I used for it (which I hopefully still have somewhere) You then just need to edit the kernel boot parameters to boot from usb (I used an usb disk) I used http://wiki.debian.org/EmDebian/CrossDebootstrap for making my armhf initial root file system. I had to play around a bit with it to get it running and starting well, but I do not remember the details. > A plus would be to be able to spawn a vnc server (I got no spare > display to hook). Well once you have debian and apt running I guess this should be a breeze. > I started to read the panda wiki and so far my choices seems to be > android or ubuntu. I'd like to stick with debian is that possible ? Of course. Those are just reference systems. And there should be Angstrom also.
