I would like to see native Debian running on the Letux400. The biggest
step forward would be a reliable 2.6 kernel.

My missing success was to get wifi and Xserver running after installing
native Debian Etch. I flashed the 2008-12-18 version of 2.4 uImage-nand2
[1].

I was thinking about the confusion with different models of very similar
hardware and different uboot versions. Not being sure if you are booting
or flashing and different keycombos for each version could scare users.
Maybe a unified bootloader which supports all models would help. The Qi
approach [2] of the Openmoko project sounds promising, I dont know if it
is applicable for the mipsbook hardware. This would probably also reduce
boot time.
