Hi,

I have a working TS-7400 using the Debian Linux from their 515 Meg SD card.  I 
want to use a larger SD card, 2 gig.

I took the original 512 meg card and dd'd it to a file:

dd if=/dev/sdb of=SD-base.dd

Then I dd'd it to the new SD card.

dd if=SD-base.dd of=/dev/sdb

Looking at the new card with fdisk it matches the original disk in layout:

Disk /dev/sdb: 2032 MB, 2032664576 bytes
16 heads, 32 sectors/track, 7754 cylinders Units = cylinders of 512 * 512 = 
262144 bytes

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdb1               1           6        1520   da  Non-FS data
/dev/sdb2               7          10        1024   da  Non-FS data
/dev/sdb3              20         953      239104   83  Linux

Command (m for help):

When I mount the file system on the linux box that I wrote the card with 
everything appears to be complete.

When I try and boot from the TS-7400 it fails:

>> TS-FLASHBOOT - built Sep 27 2006
>> Copyright (c) 2006, Technologic Systems
.
.
.
Finished booting in 1.59 seconds
Type 'tshelp' for help
$ exit
>> Booting Linux...
pivot_root: pivot_root: No such file or directory
/linuxrc: 43: bin/mount: not found
/linuxrc: 44: bin/mount: not found
/linuxrc: 45: cannot open ./dev/ttyAM0: No such file

I searched for these messages and found this thread.  I ran the update_9441, 
nothing appears to have changed.  The flashboot header still shows the same 
build date, Sep 27 2006, not the Oct 6 date from the directions in the thread.

Can anyone point me to a fix for this?

Thank you!
