This is the Linux image for testing.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/jgyqupomp3i3bmi/Ubuntu-Mate_16.04-2.img.7z?dl=0
It needs to be extracted and then written to a USB thumb drive (Minimum size 8 GB).
Extraction tool under AmigaOS 4.x
http://amiga.sourceforge.net/?showpackage=p7zip
AmigaOS 4.1 command rawdisk can be used to write the extracted image to USB thumb drive.
The USB thumb drive needs to have been set up using install with MediaToolbox first for the rawdisk copy to work .
rawdisk from Work:Ubuntu-Mate_16.04.img to usb0:
Once the uboot variables have been setup by executing the script in the post above from AmigaOS 4.1 using the execute command Linux should be bootable for the USB thumb drive from the Uboot shell by using
run lb2

| ;Sam460ex Uboot settings for Linux booting via uboot shell
;Script by Julian Margetson (Spectre660)
; This file can be executed from AmigaOS 4.x using the execute command to set the correct Uboot variables.
;To enter the U-Boot shell press the Escape key while the Sam460ex boots
; The first hard drive attached to a sii pci SATA card is /dev/sda with the first USB device being /dev/sdb.
; change devices for the SATA drive and the USB thumb drive to match your configuration in the Boot args
nvgetvar lines below then execute this script.
;The examples below uses /dev/sda6 which is the 6th partition on the first hard drive drive connected.
;The USB thumb drive partion is normally going to be the second partition of the first attached usb storage

;To boot the Linux kernel and dtb from a USB Drive partition from the U-boot shell use
;run usb
;To boot the Linux kernel and dtb from a tftp server (Fastest boot option) use
; run lan
;============================================================================================================
; Here we remove the Uboot variables previously used for installing Linux as there is a limit to the number
of variables that
;can be defined at a given time
nvsetvar ub1=""
nvsetvar ub2=""
nvsetvar live=""
;============================================================================================================
;set the variables needed

;Boot args to be passed to the linux kernel

; in this example the root partition is the sixth partition on the first hard drive /dev/sda6
nvsetvar bootargs="root=/dev/sda6 console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 fb=false"
;#2 ( Not active unless we remove the ";: infront of the nvsetvar line

Regarding USB booting it looks a little complicated. Given it must be set up first in MTB can the SLB not be installed to it so it can just autoboot? I know RawDisk doesn't help by locking out the start of the disk a times. |
