make sure /dev/nand2 is mounted to your chroot home, usually /usr/share/debian/debian-etch/home

go to chroot:

$ deb
sh-3.1# debootstrap etch /home/ http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian

if you need wifi for connecting to the internet, now is the time to install the needed packages.

# chroot /home

prepare sd-card on your desktop (see UbootStuff)

$ SDCARD=/dev/sdb
# fdisk ${SDCARD}

create the first partition, less than 32M (choose 16M)

# mkfs.vfat -F 16 ${SDCARD}1
# mount ${SDCARD}1 /mnt/
# wget -O /mnt/uImage http://projects.kwaak.net/twiki/pub/Epc700/KernelOfTheWeek/uImage
# umount /mnt/

try this kernel without flashing: boot holding Fn+LeftShift+LeftCtrl if it works, shut down and flash: boot holding Fn+LeftShift+F1

WARNING: on Letux400 the first key combo will flash and boot

Try booting Debian by pressing F3 while booting (boot from nandflash2). You should now be able to login to the Debian terminal. For making it boot from the nandflash2 without pressing F3, flash another kernel. Same steps as above, but with -nand2 at the uImage.

On your desktop

# mount ${SDCARD}1 /mnt/
# wget -O /mnt/uImage http://projects.kwaak.net/twiki/pub/Epc700/KernelOfTheWeek/uImage-nand2
# umount /mnt/

flash: boot holding Fn+LeftShift+F1

boot just without pressing anything

Done.
