installing debian-armeb on a new device / where to get the base filesystem?
Recently I bought a Freecom FSG device.
It has 64 MB RAM, 266 MHz ARM CPU, built-in HDD, 4 ethernet ports, 4 USB
ports, 1 SATA port.
Quite powerful as for a small device, I'd say it's enough to replace
some old servers.
It runs some sort of Linux (big-endian), but I thought it would be a
better idea to try to run Debian-armeb on this device.
To do this, I would need some sort of a "base filesystem" of a
Debian-armeb installation - that is, a minimal install, to which I could
chroot.
I found something similar on Martin Michlmayr's website -
http://www.cyrius.com/debian/bcm947xx/wgt634u/ - a minimal Debian-mipsel
system in a tar.bz2 package.
Is it possible to get such a minimal tar.bz2 package for Debian-armeb?
I don't have any other ARM machine where I could copy it from.
