First of all this is an armhf device, very hard to install something. No VGA card. I am doing this through serial console. I used some of the commands from here at this wiki: https://wiki.debian.org/InstallingDebia ... /WRT1200AC
So I was trying to install debian armhf to my Asustor AS-1002T NAS. I used debian Linksys WRT-AC1200 official guide, because it used the same CPU, and probably same ethernet driver too. Because it downloaded all the stuff from the internet inside the installer, so it works. Changed the links and stuff to the bookworm accordingly. So, I set u boot to load that installer, done everything. I completed the install.
The guide said after the install open a shell, and do some stuff. I chrooted and did those stuff. One thing is I didn’t do is the flash-kernel related stuff, because the E-MMC inside is borked totally, or I couldn’t see it from debian installer. So I asked chatgpt to how to do it without flash-kernel, it said to me just pass on those flash-kernel related commands.
So it said me to do just:Then I just did it. Then chatgpt gave me some temporary and permanent booting options(if temporary works at all) I checked it withso I can see that files, vmlinuz and initrd stuff. They are all there. u-boot can see those.
So these were the commands chatgpt said:After the reset, stop booting then enter these commands:But, it’s stuck actually. It won’t do anything after that. I removed the HDD from inside, and checked if the vmlinuz is actually zImage, because that’s what bootz does, loads zImages. So it’s a zImage after all:This is the u-boot output when I try these, no output even after 5 minutes. Why would it boot the debian installer and not this? I am very close. No device is up I checked it from my router too:
