Squeeze to Wheezy Update Woes (1 reply)

-- Pogoplug E02 (I realized after typing this that I forgot to mention the model)
Last night I switched from Arch to Debian due to packages breaking. After fighting through a bunch of issues, I managed to get Debian Squeeze running. I then got greedy and wanted newer package updates. I ran:

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
(point sources to wheezy)
apt-get update
apt-get upgrade
apt-get dist-upgrade
reboot

After rebooting, netcat showed me that everything was working fine at least up until "Starting Kernel". After that I can't ping or ssh into my box. I then tried to follow the directions in this Squeeze to Wheezy forum post.

From my netbook, I cd'd to the usb directory and ran:

sudo mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-2.6.32-5-kirkwood -d boot/vmlinuz-2.6.32-5-kirkwood boot/uImage

sudo mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n Initrd-2.6.32-5-kirkwood -d boot/initrd.img-2.6.32-5-kirkwood boot/uInitrd

No go. So now I'm stuck. I'd prefer not to reinstall since I already have my applications configured and running, but I'm not sure what else to check to see what's wrong.

Here is my nc:
