Yep, but this is actually documented: | If you're using an SD card, you have to edit /mnt/etc/fstab and | replace /dev/sda1 with /dev/mmcblk0p1 and /dev/sda2 with | /dev/mmcblk0p2. If you're using a USB stick, you don't have to edit | this file. > It now gets as far trying to boot and says: > > ## Booting image at 00400000 ... > Bad Magic Number I just did a dist-upgrade on my SheevaPlug and it worked fine. I'll take a look at your boot files to see if I can see something obviously wrong. > As part of the apt-get dist-upgrade I noticed that the kernel went > from 2.6.29 to 2.6.30.
