I don't know if you solved that already or not. I was thinking of talking with Martin during this year's Debconf, since I had *exactly* the same behaviour (and my Kuro Pro was donated by Martin himself). I have solved it (after quite some silly work), by grabing foonas-em uimage (renamed and put onto the tftp directory with a silly initrd, since the uboot bootloader would request one). [1] Once I did that, I could log into the kurobox, set the nvram variables by myself and have everything working, so that I could, after that, install Debian's unstable (the one that I use). > Unfortunately I don't have a serial interface on my kurobox > pro so I can't quite see what specifically is going wrong. Right. That's my situation too. Using a network console is much easier than using a serial console (but, of course, more limited too). I don't know if the vanilla uboot has a network console enabled (not played with it yet), but that makes everything easier. Having a network console on the kernel is also not a bad idea. You can see the appropriate options for this on a page of mine.
