Hi
fstab question 

is there any order in which the logical partitions should be numbered ?
ie as deboostrap doesn't create fstab 
I've used
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.
#
# file system    mount point   type    options                  dump pass
/dev/sda         /             ext3    defaults                 0    1
/dev/sda1        /boot         ext3    ro,nosuid,nodev          0    2

/dev/sda2        none          swap    sw                       0    0
proc             /proc         proc    defaults                 0    0

#/dev/fd0         /media/floppy auto    noauto,rw,sync,user,exec 0    0
#/dev/cdrom       /media/cdrom  iso9660 noauto,ro,user,exec      0    0

/dev/sda3        /tmp          ext3    rw,nosuid,nodev          0    2
/dev/sda4        /var          ext3    rw,nosuid,nodev          0    2
/dev/sda5        /usr          ext3    rw,nodev                 0    2
/dev/sda6        /home         ext3    rw,nosuid,nodev          0    2

and just numbered sequentially.

Kernel question

I've copied the kernel image from Arch as it was on a memory stick that
boots OK
is it still named uImage in debian ?


Bootloader question

Is a bootloader required if uboot is being used ?


With drive plugged in now I added the above fstab and kernel image , its
trying to do something, but its not sending dhcp requests.
my /etc/network/interfaces looks like this

auto lo
iface lo inet loopback

# To use dhcp:
#
 auto eth0
 iface eth0 inet dhcp

The router is telling me its not connected so dhcp is not running and
still how to get ssl running as this is a headless unit

TIA
