Hello,

I followed the instructions in the wiki for installing Debian/Wheezy. After the reboot i get the message "Bad partition 1" and "Can not read from device 0". The root partition is formatted with ext3.

how can I run Debian?

regards

Have you copied the boot.scr and uImage files in your SD /boot directory?. Also, you maybe need to addapt the boot.scr to boot your partition. Before doing it, first try the boot script "by hand". I mean, execute this commands from the boot prompt:

Code:
setenv bootargs 'console=ttyS0,115200n8 vmalloc=384M root=/dev/mmcblk0p1 video=dovefb:lcd0:1920x1080-32@60-edid clcd.lcd0_enable=1 clcd.lcd1_enable=0'
echo ======== Loading kernel ========
ext2load mmc 0:1 0x00200000 /boot/uImage
echo ======== Booting kernel ========
bootm


Take in account that your sd partitions could be slightly different, for instance, the command ext2load mmc 0:1 0x00200000 /boot/uImage could be ext2load mmc 0:0 0x00200000 /boot/uImage.

I have attached my boot files, in case you need them.

You didn't mentioned which version of debian you needed!. It's the Squeeze (6). I do not know if Debian 7 is available. I'm glad you got it working.

Hi!
I have a problem after installing Debian Squeeze on my CuBox. I used the wiki description (also copied the boot.scr and uImage files) and Debian is starting up, but failing this way:
Quote:
[ 39.660740] List of all partitions:
[ 39.664240] b300 7879680 mmcblk0 driver: mmcblk
[ 39.669454] b301 194560 mmcblk0p1
[ 39.673739] b302 1 mmcblk0p2
[ 39.678007] b305 371712 mmcblk0p5
[ 39.682275] b306 7310336 mmcblk0p6
[ 39.686549] No filesystem could mount root, tried: ext3 ext2 ext4 cramfs squashfs vfat msdos iso9660 ntfs fuseblk udf
[ 39.697310] Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(179,2)

Any ideas what could have gone wrong? Both my partitions are ext3.

@rollin_rob:
It looks like your rootfs is on /dev/mmcblk0p6, not /dev/mmcblk0p2. Try adjusting root parameter in boot.scr source and recompiling it

Ok, I adjusted the root parameter 'root=/dev/mmcblk0p2' to 'root=/dev/mmcblk0p6', but how do I recompile it? After rebooting with this new boot.scr I got some crc error :(
