First of all, you don't need APEX 1.5.14 to use a fatslug. I'm using
1.5.8 and it works just fine.
You can download the /dev/mtdblock2 image that I'm using from
ftp://ftp.buici.com/pub/apex/apex-1.5.8-slug-mtdblock2.bin. Note that
it has both the APEX image as well as my environment.

If I add the commands via apex-env with the apex shipped by debian:
$ sudo apex-env
bootaddr *= 0x8000
cmdline *= console=ttyS0,115200 rtc-x1

Actually, if you want to be able to reflash the image, or unpack it with
slugimage (so that you can repack it with a new Apex), then you need to

Hi all!
I own a fantastic NSLU2 device and have installed Debian on it some months
working pretty well, but 32 MB of main memory isn't enough so I fatted it
with two 64MB modules, so it has 128 MB of main memory.
Memory isn't recognized. I can reinstall debian/armel with the
slug-firmware.net
