yes, that did the trick. Curiously enough, I did forgot this step. The Lime2 board booted fine but only 500MB of RAM were seen by the kernel.. I guess that RAM setup is performed by uboot and not by the firmware of the kernel. Anyway, once uboot for lime2 is installed as you instructed, the card works fine. > I'd recommend making an image backup of the SD card before > performing the steps outlined above, just in case something > goes wrong. Good idea. Thanks to Adam and Karsten for the help All the best -- https://github.com/dod38fr/ -o- http://search.cpan.org/~ddumont/ http://ddumont.wordpress.com/ -o- irc: dod at irc.debian.org
