Very simply tying to load debian on a pogoplug V2, arm5, and the damn
installer wont function,, I posted , but NO help,
I've tried mounting  the USB HD on this machine and loading the file
system, but I cant get the kernel to load as it requires using apt-get
and it wont pull down an armel kernel,



So the next questioned posted , which hasn't been read by the response,
it to ask if I use a ARMEL install disc on this machine with the USB HD
that will be used on the pogoplug , if it will write the file system to
the usb hd or bork..

Simple question eh ????????????
