hi, i have a weird problem trying to build a d-i-nslu2.bin image with slugimage that is supposed to carry a kernel binary of a size of 1978300 bytes ...
as i understand by looking at the d-i code that generates di-nslu2.bin there are 49 blocks of 131072 bytes each available for the kernel and initramfs. using the same commands as used in debian-installer in build/config/armel/ixp4xx/netboot.cfg manually i can roll a working image as long as my kernel partition doesnt exceed 15 blocks (1966080 bytes) ... as soon as i switch to 16 blocks (2097152 bytes which is needed for the above kernel size) apex gets stuck at copying the kernel, after a day of digging top to bottom through slugimage and apex i still dont understand why this limitation exists, could someone enlighten me ? ciao oli
