Well. We had some success in doing so, on a Bering 1.1-stable the steps, more or less, are the following: 1) verify that the BIOS of the PC allows startup usong USB ~ (usually USB disk) 2) you must include in initrd.lrp some modules: ~ scsi_mod usbcore usb-uhci usb-storage sd_mod ~ (or usb_ohci instead of usb_uhci, it depends on your hw) ~ To do so you must do the following steps: ~ - doownload modules into moduli.tgz ~ - tar xvzf moduli .tgz /moduli ~ - download image of Bering ~ - mkdir immagine ~ - mount -o loop image /immagine ~ - cd /immagine vi syslinux.cfg ~ - modify /dev/fd0u1680 into /dev/sda1 ~ - cp initrd.lrp /tmp/initrd.gz ~ - gunzip /tmp/initrd.gz ~ - mkdir /dove ~ - mount -o loop /tmp/initrd /dove ~ - cd /moduli ~ - cp scsi_mod.o usbcore.o usb-uhci.o /dove/boot/lib/modules ~ - cp usbstorage. o sd_mod.o /dove/boot/lib/modules ~ - echo scsi_mod > /dove/boot/etc/modules ~ - echo usbcore >> /dove/boot/etc/modules ~ - echo usb-uhci >> /dove/boot/etc/modules ~ - echo usb-storage >> /dove/boot/etc/modules ~ - echo sd_mod >> /dove/boot/etc/modules ~ - umount /dove ~ - gzip /tmp/initrd ~ - cp /tmp/initrd.gz /immagine/initrd.lrp
So, you have the right modules to boot. I do not know if this works on uClibc, but I thin that the solution cannot be too far, hope thes can help
