[nslu2-linux] Re: upgrading debian distribution: arm vs armrel (arm dist not found)

 

Thank you Martin. What's the easiest way to reinstall? Should I use the
1) tar-ball method as in http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/unpack.html
2) or direct install (http://www.cyrius.com/debian/nslu2/install.html)

All the above methods assume a non-debian current system. Your suggestion appreciated.

Thanks.

My linux skills are medium level.
