Hi everyone!
I've been reading about booting from SD Card on SheevaPlug, and I am very interested in getting this to be my default boot location.
However, if I boot the plug electrically (meaning, I plug it in) I get the following crash dump:
VFS: Cannot open root device "b301" or unknown-block(179,1)
Please append a correct "root=" boot option; here are the available partitions:
1f00 4096 mtdblock0 (driver?)
1f01 519168 mtdblock1 (driver?)
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,1)

[<c0008734>] (kernel_init+0xc0/0xec) from [<c0040b18>] (do_exit+0x0/0x6ac)
so I follow this by pressing the reset button and it goes through just fine. Does this have to do with not allowing enough time for the SD card to mount? or is it happening due to something else?
I followed this wonderful guide to get my SD Card setup but I doubt it has anything to do with it since I am able to load from SD card, but not as I described above.
