Hi Jacco,
Really appreciated. Before proceeding, I’d like to confirm the steps (assuming
similar procedure as for F18 in the link below)
1. xzcat dream* /dev/sdb (if the SD card is sdb; or use dd)
2. Configure u-boot (one that supports ext2)
printenv
set bootargs 'console=ttyS0,115200 root=LABEL=rootfs rootwait'
set loadInitrd 'ext2load usb 1:1 0x7400000 uInitrd'
set loadImage 'ext2load usb 1:1 0x6400000 uImage'
set bootcmd 'usb start; ${loadImage}; ${loadInitrd} ; bootm 0x6400000 0x7400000'
saveenv
boot
If I cannot make it work, I’ll send you a dreamplug unit.
Regards,
ioan
