For some years I've run leaf-bering on a PC Engines Alix 2D13 board as my main router, but now I need to upgrade to a board that supports gigabit ethernet, vlans, baby jumbo frames, etc.
The apu2c2 board has 3 gigabit LAN ports, 2 USB3 ports, SD card reader plus mSATA & PCI express sockets. Using Bering-uClibc_6.0.2-rc1_x86_64_syslinux_serial115200.tar.gz on a USB stick the board boots fine. However I can't get it to boot from a SD card. The bios boot (coreboot) recognises the SD card in the boot list but then hangs at the point where it should transfer to syslinux. This is obviously a PC Engines issue and not one for Leaf. There is a thread about this on PC Engines' forum: http://pcengines.info/forums/?page=post&id=1532182F-D982-4735-A4BF-7E786EC42179 However the recommendation seems to be to use a mSATA card instead:( If I go down that route though that brings up another problem - the apu2c2 is the only mSATA interface I have available, and the tools required to transfer the working config from the USB stick to mSATA (fdisk, mkfs.vfat, syslinux) don't seem to be available in any of the Leaf packages. I would probably have to boot up TinyCore Linux temporarily to do the transfer. Having transferred the appropriate (5.2.4) configs from the old router, I have run into module loading problems - see my next e-mail for a discussion of this. regards, John Sager ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Check out the vibrant tech community on one of the world's most engaging tech sites, SlashDot.org! http://sdm.link/slashdot ------------------------------------------------------------------------ leaf-user mailing list: leaf-user@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/leaf-user Support Request -- http://leaf-project.org/
