meaby systemd bad working and not full properly.
download date ? - i'am not soure - 2012.12*. Actualy reinstall base-devel - everything again.

modinfo is loaded moule r8168:

r8168 or r8169 <=> still nothing... - eth0 not produced and ethernet not working - *****...

My last chance - reinstall all system - everything again and test for new build/install/uses this r8168 driver...no any new idea.
Whot is wrong ?

[WarheadsSE]

First, you should have systemd. Problem number one.

[pepedog]

Try this on new rootfs
http://myplugbox.com/lulo/
Don't do it on one with dkms

[lulo]

Ok. unplug disk, remove all partition and wipe (dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/sdx, sync, sync) from my computer, partitioning manualy /dev/sdx1(ext2)=~20 MB and /dev/sdx2 (ext4) rest MB, copy (using root) downloading *last, full rootfs (2013.3) to /dev/sdx2, unpaking (tar zxvf <this rootfs>), sync, copy /dev/sdx2(LABEL=rootfs)//boot/uImage to /dev/sdx1(LABEL=boot)//, sync, umount,unplug and plug too NSA310 (this operation using only default rootfs and kernel=3.1.10-16*), plug cord power, USB<=>RS232-ver. 3.3v, start minicom and click "power" (if can not "click" nsa310 not starting automaticaly) to NSA310, and...

Any chance start Arch*last*gz ?

[WarheadsSE]

Check the bootargs don't have "ro"

[lulo]

This actual boot option from u-boot:
viewtopic.php?p=31032#p31032

Whot this wrong ? How to fix ? How to start archlinux for this machine ?

Ok. Read this config again:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '

"ro" is bad ? "rw" is bad ?

Notabene "fw_setenv arcNumber 4402" is wrong.
Generaly this script not working for real situation (md5sum is wrong and not copy anything to partition, only create partition and upgrade u-boot options).

resetenv and orginal printenv produce this log:

So what next? Any idea ???

[pepedog]

If ro then remount /dev/root required in fstab
You have rw, good
We don't have an NSA310, rely on you.
Once all confirmed as now working, script will be fixed.

It looked to me from pastebin things were going fine.
Maybe do fdisk, format, mount, tar xf step. Do as root. Sync before umount.

I have NSA320, I think it's the best arm I got, so good to get 310 working too.
