NSA320 install Linux Kernel 4.16.1 Kirkwood package and Debian rootfs (2 replies)

Hello all,


To start: I have a NSA320, connected with serial where I could flash the latest uboot.

I know there is still the kernel + rootfs to be installed, but I don't exactly understand how.

I have tried with the roofs first so I downloaded Debian-4.12.1-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (24 Jul 2017) and extracted the content to an ext3 usb everything at root level (so I have /boot and other folders in the USB root folder) and also renamed the USB label to "USBROOT" according to this guide install-debian-wheezy-zyxel-nsa320.

but nothing really happens and since I do not have my shell console anymore I am a bit lost...

can you please advice how to install linux kernel or rootfs?

thank you very much
