PP E02 - won't boot with 2TB HDD

[rino]

Hi moonman,
Thanks for your reply. The rootfs USB stick is already plugged into the back bottom port. I've plugged in the 2TB HDD into the back top port (I've tried putting it into the middle port as well) - but same results.

How do I use initrd? Can you please provide me with some instructions? As I stated above that I am a noob - I can get my way around in linux, but not too much. Stepped instructions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks again.

setup netconsole first and see why it actually is not booting up. We guessed it was a usb race condition. Follow the link in my signature on updating uboot. While you likely don't need to update uboot, it has instructions on getting netconsole to work
