Here you go.
edited script in Documents sets the following :

;Boot args option for Live USB. /dev/sdb for first USB drive or if you have another card in the SD card slot then /dev/sdc
nvsetvar bootargs="root=/dev/ramdisk file=/dev/sdb/preseed/ubuntu-mate.seed boot=casper quiet ro splash -- rootdelay=10"

It should recover and boot if you leave it .
If your usb thumb drive has an led you should see activity after this.

You're damn right I reached in the Ubuntu Mate desktop (without the need to type a password).

I started to install it on another USB drive (I don't have another HD at hand) using your script.
I also wrote the kernel to a partition of my USB key. I have to figure out if I can mimic your start process to start the kernel and files of my new installation.

Many thanks Spectre660 for your work. Now I can show Linux admins that PPC machines are still alive

@elwood

Did you use the ubuntu-install script?

yes
I partitioned the USB drive with 2 partitions, 1 ext2 to place the kernel, dtb, ramdisk and one ext4 on which I copied the files, still with the AmigaOne_ubuntu-install script.

@elwood

Partition needs to be ext2 or ext3 for the kernel etc.

You could also try tftp booting .
see if this is fast enough for you .

yes, I typed it incorrectly above. My partition "for the kernel" is ext2.
Using tftp is faster than the USB key. Ah, if only we could load the whole image from tftp...

I'm soon leaving home so I won't able to try in the next 3 weeks.

Kernel also supports quite a few SATA II and SATA III controller if anyone wants to experiment with a pciex1 one.
