Calibrating delay loop... 132.71 BogoMIPS (lpj=663552)

To install, follow the howto, here are the big steps:

Get Debian 4.0r0 firmware from http://www.slug-firmware.net/ and unzip it
Power the NSLU2 and wait a bit (green light) before plugging it to the network if you've a DHCP, so the NSLU2 will choose itself IP 192.168.1.77, otherwise look to your DHCP server logs to find the IP attribution
Go to the admin webpage, tab administration, login admin/admin
Configure ALL network params if you don't have DHCP
Go to the admin webpage, tab administration, login admin/admin, tab advanced, tab upgrade
Upload di-nslu2.bin, start upgrade
Wait for "upgrading ok" (5mins) -> wait for 3 bips (5-10mins)
This is the last moment to plug an external USB mass-storage if you didn't do so yet
Login via ssh installer@192.168.1.77 (or another IP got by DHCP...) pwd "install"
- I did it from an xterm but exported term mode is pure console so it's better to login from a real text console otherwise the ncurses menu is a bit broken (but still usable)
Start installation, manually load the following modules:
- ext3-modules-2.6.18-4-ixp4xx-di
- partman-auto
- partman-ext3
- scsi-core-modules-2.6.18-4-ixp4xx-di
- usb-storage-modules-2.6.18-4-ixp4xx-di
Whatever system you choose to partition your disk, be sure to have at least 128M of swap, I've set up 512M on my 400G drive.
In total it took about 100 mins to complete
If you need a console, start a second ssh connection and choose to obtain a shell
