HI! Any news on that? Tried today with openSUSE-Factory-ARM-JeOS-raspberrypi.armv6l-1.12.1-Build211.14.raw.xz but still no luck. Any further information needed I could provide? Ciao, Michael. BTW: It seems I did not receive all follow-ups cited in Alex' e-mail. Alex Armstrong wrote:

Greetings,
I had a chance to test JeOS Factory Build 207.2 (13-Sep-14) on the Pi this weekend and found it didn't boot.
U-boot loads. It looks for /uEnv.txt, fails to find it. U-boot next looks for, and finds /boot.scr. It reads and executes the scrip.
Then this happens: ----- switch to partitions #0, OK mmc is current device ** File not found boot/linux.vmx ** SCRIPT FAILED: continuing... ** Bad Partition specification mmc 0:0:2 ** ** Bad Partition specification mmc 0:0:2 ** ** Bad Partition specification mmc 0:0:2 ** These should be 0:2, so maybe a variable mixup in the script?

I haven't yet found what's causing this, but I'm a bit confused by something else too.
I think that the boot script is looking to boot 'boot/linux.vmx' with initrd 'boot/initrd.uboot' on the Second Partition (if I'm reading it right). But when I look at the directory structure I see this:
<First Partition> BOOT/boot/ - linux.vmx - initrd.uboot
<Second Partition> /boot/ - zImage -> zImage-3.11.4-3-raspberrypi - vmlinux-3.11.4-3-raspberrypi - initrd -> [broken link]
What am I missing?
-A Once at the u-boot prompt it's possible to load a kernel and initrd by hand with these commands:
<To load the kernel in the BOOT partition> load mmc 0:1 ${kerneladdr} ${kernel}
<OR can load kernel from root partition /boot/> load mmc 0:2 ${kerneladdr} boot/zImage
<To load inird in BOOT partition> load mmc 0:1 ${ramdiskaddr} ${initrd}; setenv rd_filesize ${sizeprefix}:${filesize}
Then can boot with:
bootz ${kerneladdr} ${ramdiskaddr}:${rd_filesize}
This starts the kernel booting - it uncompresses, verifies the checksum and boots Linux - but at about 4 seconds in it hangs while trying to register the ethernet device: ------ usb 1-1.1: New USB device found, idVendor=0424, idProduct=ec00 usb 1-1.1: New USB device string: Mfr=0, Product=0, SerialNumber=0 smsc95xx v1.0.4 smsc95xx 1-1.1:1.0 eth0: register 'smsc95xx' at usb-bcm2708_usb-1.1, smsc95xx USB 2.0 Ethernet, 7a:60:5a:4c:e1:ea ------
