I recently upgraded mine to Debian Squeeze using the instructions from Martin at http://www.cyrius.com/debian/kirkwood/sheevaplug.

You can install on the internal flash, SD card or USB drive thumb drive. If you want to install on USB or SD card, you need to update uBoot first.

Steps from the guide are simple. If you never installed Debian, I'd recommend installing it on a PC first so you know what to expect and make the right choices for you, partitioning wise.

I got mine on 8 gb SD card, running smoothly.

Hi, thanks for the report

Did you reinstall? any better with squeeze final ? I have the same thing only using a  8 gig SD card

Did they reply back to you then? I emailed 3 times and got nothing, when I asked to cancel my guruplug and process a refund that was done overnight. No word about the PS problem yet.

My plug died tonight as well... I have one of the black ones with free jtag ordered and will cancel. this device looked too good to be true... well there it is.

+1 dead

is it hard to merge?

Do this release support the cryptografic hardware that the original kernel supports? I think openvpn hardware accelerated would be pretty cool

thanks for all the work

Here's mine

I know that's not what you asked but, given the embedded nature (lower hardware specs) it is actually worse to run on 64bit, as you gain nothing and the pointers cost more to store the same info... so even if the Sheeva supports it, you would have to hack it to add more than 4gigs of memory to make it worthwhile...

Thanks! editing makeopts after running ./configure works!

Where is the module located for us to load?

I am on 2.6.22.18 (default kernel)

Thanks

Hi, how did you get around the compilation problems?

I keep getting:



src/add.c:1: error: bad value (armv5tejl) for -march= switch
Assembler messages:
Error: unknown architecture `armv5tejl'

Error: unrecognized option -march=armv5tejl
make[2]: *** [src/add.o] Error 1

Thanks!
