Installation fails after "done, booting the kernel."
Hi,
I have successfully debianized a Seagate Dockstar a long time ago, and
wanted to do the same thing to two other Dockstars. I followed the
guide
at [1] but when I try to boot, the last output is always:
Marvell>> bootm 0x00800000 0x01100000
## Booting image at 00800000 ...

Starting kernel ...
Uncompressing Linux... done, booting the kernel.
Then no output occurs, the orange led is constantly lit and I have to
reset the dockstar. Caputuring ethernet traffic for a couple of
minutes
also shows no activity. The same behaviour happens on two different
dockstars, so I assume it is no hardware failure.
After a reset, the dockstar boots into uboot just fine. I can install
different uboot versions as well. Always the same problem: no more
output after "booting the kernel".
I have also tried to restore the original firmware ([2]), with almost
the same results, except that the orange led is flashing in that case.
Any thoughts?

Thomas Herrmann
