Re: Can't boot when serial cable is connected to powered off

I do not get login failures as well. I tried boot B2 when my PC is powered off with back side switch in 'O' ( off ) position, but still can't boot B2. The only possibility is to un-plug the USB to TTL Serial Cable from my PC and just then can I boot B2 successfully. I just connect with serial consol...

'Enter' doesn't has any effect too. Interesting thing is, when I type Ctrl+A and '\' nothing happen, I can't close screen session thi...

Re: Can't boot when serial cable is connected to powered off

No, I have not any hardware ( eg. powered USB hub in between ), just the cable from B2 to the USB port of powered off PC. However, the PC has a 0/I switch at back side which I leave in 'I' position always. But, again, the PC get it's power from an extension cord which have a switch too, that I alway...

Re: To create a custom install image for B1, B2 or B3?

But finally, after I copied the generated 8313E21.itb file into install/ directory and started the rescue system, I can't start parted command. I get 'No such...

Re: To create a custom install image for B1, B2 or B3?

Hi, Been a while since I used Debian, but I believe that's in the uboot-mkimage package, so: # apt-get update # apt-get install uboot-mkimage should fix it. On arch linux it is the uboot-tools package. I just installed it as root with: # pacman -S uboot-tools Now I run again the 'make' command and ...
