I have two partitions and it boots from first.

What kernel did you use in this attempt ? You were really using Pali's 'u-boot with bootmenu for rx-51'
What were the setting you used in the .item file ?

Thanks.

Yes I really had u-boot with bootmenu for rx-51 installed and it worked really good. It was pretty easy. You don't have to make any configuration for it. When you press the power button the u-boot asks what to do. You just have to enter into u-boot console and issue "run sdboot" command. It will search for uImage on every partition and it loads the kernel.

PanzerSajt, I've missed what distro you are trying to boot now and what are the exact kernel versions? Still Debian?
So I have installed Debian on a separate sd-card. I have tried it with kernel power, with the Ubuntu kernel, and with Nemo kernel but I dind't managed to get one working.

But the bigger problem is that I get the following error on Ubuntu 12.04 arm on the device and also during chroot:
Code:
root@panzersajt-HP-Pavilion-dv5-Notebook-PC:/# apt-get update
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise InRelease
  
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise-security InRelease
  
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise-updates InRelease
  
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise Release.gpg
  Could not resolve 'ports.ubuntu.com'
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise-security Release.gpg
  Could not resolve 'ports.ubuntu.com'
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise-updates Release.gpg
  Could not resolve 'ports.ubuntu.com'
Reading package lists... Done

W: Failed to fetch http://ports.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-ports/dists/precise-updates/Release.gpg  Could not resolve 'ports.ubuntu.com'

W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignored, or old ones used instead.
I can't do any package installation thing and it is really annoying. I hope somebody can help.

echo "nameserver 8.8.8.8" >> /etc/resolv.conf
?

Really really thank you. But I don't understand why I get this error when running Ubuntu natively.

Can you shortly describe what this command does?

Human readable: It shows the system where to look for DNS records.
When you use it natively networkmanager/wicd/etc will do it automatically.
8.8.8.8 is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Public_DNS
Further reading:
Code:
$ man resolv.conf

So can we somehow make the keyboard work in Ubuntu. In Kubuntu it worked, but in Ubuntu I can't type any special characters or numbers but they are improtant for the terminal work.

I'm back and I was trying to chroot into Ubuntu Core on N900 today. And I've found out that Kernel Power worked (and supposedly works nowadays) with it but stock kernel doesn't. And I use stock one. Maybe will switch back later.
Skry, I suppose you use KP, right? Anyone else with KP chrooted successfully?
PanzerSajt: As of keyboard I will try it, but only on the weekend, I think.

Thanks for your efforts. I can't wait to test out the new version.
