I am thinking how to archive this: In a normal pc, you just need to insert a cd in a cd-rom driver. Then doing a boot from the cd. In FR we don't have a cd-rom drive, so we have two possibility: A) Copy a netinstall cd image (or something like this) on the flash memory, boot from flash ... and then start the installation B) Copy a netinstall cd image (or something like this) on an external usb pen drive, connect to FR with an adaptor, and use a funtion on uboot (that still don't exist) that allow to 1) set usb in host mode 2) boot from usb
The best option is the option A) but it has the disavantage that it destroy all the images previously present on flash... it can be good only in Debian only freerunner. I don't have other ideas.

I declase officially dead the idea about pills :) It was only and idea! In every case I need such script, because I like a very special configuration, and every time I don't want to lose 3 days to configure all the steps. But I will keep for me :) > If the pills are yet another means for communication, then of course I don't > mind.
