Hi, I finally took the plunge and purchased the Alix 2D13 and I'm trying to install Bering uClibc 40 beta2_geode (also tried beta 1)
No matter what I do, following the Bering-uClibc 4.x - User Guide, (Linux system, (Ububntu 10.10 or Windows system, Windows XP Pro), I can not get a login prompt. I have tried setting up the CF from both Linux and Windows, using different media from 128MB to 4GB CF disks. I have also flashed the Alix board even though it came with the latest version. I tried Hyper Terminal on Windows and both Cutecom and Minicom on Linux with various settings. _____ Here are my syslinux.cfg and PC Engines settings: syslinux.cfg SERIAL 0 115200 DISPLAY syslinux.dpy TIMEOUT 0 APPEND reboot=bios console=tty1,115200n8 VERBOSE=1 DEFAULT /syslinux/linux initrd=/initrd.lrp rw root=/dev/ram0 LEAFCFG=/dev/sda1:vfat (Terminal setting change to 115200 etc, also) ______ PC Engines ALIX.2 v0.99h 640 KB Base Memory 261120 KB Extended Memory 01F0 Master 848A SanDisk SDCFB-1024 Phys C/H/S 1986/16/63 Log C/H/S 993/32/63 BIOS setup: (9) 9600 baud (2) 19200 baud (3) 38400 baud (5) 57600 baud *1* 115200 baud *C* CHS mode (L) LBA mode (W) HDD wait (V) HDD slave (U) UDMA enable (M) MFGPT workaround (P) late PCI init *R* Serial console enable (E) PXE boot enable (X) Xmodem upload (Q) Quit BUT I only get a prompt like this: bboooott: I can not get a: LEAF Bering-uClibc 4.0.0 Rev 9 uClibc 0.9.30.3 firewall tty1 firewall login: 1. typing root at the prompt "bboooott: results in rroooott AND then pressing Enter I get: CCoouulldd nnoott ffiinndd kkeerrnneell iimmaaggee:: 2.
