Running Debian on Soekris Engineering Embedded Systems
This document describes how to load Debian GNU/Linux on the Soekris net45xx embedded systems. Why Debian? Becuase its easy to adminisister, easy to add new packages and easy to update existing packages. Not to mention its free!.Posted by jshare at July 22, 2004 11:36 AMWe start by booting the system off the network and mounting its root filesystem over NFS. From there you can format the CompactFlash, load a root filesystem on it and run lilo so that it will boot directly from the CF disk.
