Re: Stalled Boot on NSLU2

Probably
http://cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/files/sda1-2.6.18.dfsg.1-12.bin
although that really depends on the kernel you were running before.
If you write the kernel in flash and on disk don't match, your system
will definitely not boot and you'll have to reinstall or something.
I suppose you don't know what version you were running?

What does 'ls -l /boot' of your NSLU2 disk say? (Just connect it to a
PC and mount it there.)

Yes.

Don't run "aptitude upgrade" or "apt-get upgrade", but really, an
upgrade should not stop your box from booting.  Unfortunately, it's
pretty hard to say what might be going on when you don't have a serial
console.
