[ARMedslack] Booting Slack 13.1 from eSata on Guruplug ServerPlus

[blair.hoddinott at gmail.com]

Yeah, I've tried that uboot (in my OP), but still no joy. It comes up with bad block device. This makes me think it doesn't see the esata.

Before, using that uboot to my usb drive, results in the hang at uncompressing linux which Ron is experiencing.

OK.

I've just looked at this:
http://oinkzwurgl.org/guruplug_uboot
and downloaded the binaries.  Running strings over u-boot.bin (from the
tar archive) shows it has ext2load: perhaps you want to try using this
u-boot binary for convenience?
