You've installed the SD bootrom, this bootrom will load a kernel(1st
partition) and initial ramdisk(2nd partition) from the SD card. The initial
ramdisk is written for the TS-7300, so it will attempt to load the
firmware for the TS-7300. This will cause problems on a TS-7260, so
you'll need to modify the initrd. You can modify the linuxrc2 script in
the root directory of the second partition(ext2 filesytem) on the SD
card. Just comment out the call to /bin/startfpga, once you make these
changes you should be able to boot properly to the SD card. You could
then run the tsbootrom-update utility again to write the original
bootrom to the e2.
