Re: ARM installer images for etch (4.0) currently broken



Thank you

Is there a step by step guide to installing Debian.  I am new to linux
although i successfully flashed Slug to Unslung and Openslug. But i want to
do the debian one right!

I tried using the sercomm utility and reflashed to Debian but it does not
boot up I get 3 beeps and the top light stays orange.
Am i using the flash file which doesnt work? Where do i find the correct
one.

If i go with Debian live and Upslug(Is that better?) which Debian live Image
do i use on P4 PC.

Thanks Again
