Hi Andy, did you install our Debian Lenny rootfs including the config.tgz on the second partition? The latter provides the postinst file. Then, the 2.6 kernel and Debian should log in as root and change the home directory to /root. There should be the postinst file that completes the Lenny bootstrapping. In the meantime, I have tried to pull the original files from /dev/mtd* on another machine - and now it can't start the old 2.4 system. Therefore: we have a problem in our 2.6-kernel that appears to (slightly?) damage the NAND flash contents even if the mtd devices are NOT mounted. I hope that I can build the JTAG adapter next week so that we will have progress with direct access to the flash and console.
