Hi,
Looks like this problem killed my NSLU and I did a loosy backup, already trying to reinstall it, before I read about the work arround here. I was able to bring back the system with an old backup, but most applications (apache, mysqld), wasn't able to run (guess permission problem or SELinux). So I decide to make a fresh install with the debian 4.0r3. However the installation failed twice with the same symptome. The installer itself works quite fine, but after the reboot the NSLU is just showing a frequent amber light (status) and a green on ethernet. Nothing more happens. This was exactly the same that happens on the 5.0b1 system, right after the upgrade. So are you sure that the problem does not exist on 4.0r3? I just read on a german forum, that somebody else had this problem too after an upgrade from 4.0r2 on 4.0r3.Old releasesThese releases are obsolete and no longer supported. Please use the latest release.Debian/NSLU2 Stable 4.0r3
Can anyone actually confirm that this problem does not affect the 4.0-serie? Best regards, Florian
