I made a ext3 partition in the HDD (dev/sda3) and installed the rootfs into it and labelled it "rootfs". sda1 is the storage partition and sda2 is the swap
I tried to boot but it boots into rescue. It the uboot variables looks correct?

Also, shall I flash the new uboot?

OK got it booted:

usb_root=LABEL=rootfs
usb_device=0:3
usb_scan_1=usb=0:3 dev=sda3

but is there any better way to scan and boot?
