Hey Tim,

when you see u-boot booting and it loads the kernel, it seems that you
have flashed the image correctly onto the SD card.

What version/revision of the Pandaboard are you using? Do other older
releases of IPFire work?

In general the image is ready for Pandaboard (not the ES version AFAIK).

Yes. I have tested it on pandaboard.

You use a serial console so you have to use the "scon" image or connect 
a keyboard and monitor with the normal image.

Hey,

I tried to find out if that version should be supported. I am not very
about that, because I do not know if kernel 3.2 has support for
PandaBoard ES at all.

I hope that Arne will respond to this when he is back.
