SGX drivers from Nemo are available, yet, I doubt kernel you're using will work with that.

I managed to boot Ubuntu from sd card with the new Uboot-bootmenu bootloader, but now I have a different problem. When I issue the apt-get update or apt-get upgrade some error occures:
First it show that Connecting to ports.ubuntu.com
Than it cannot download anything and gives me this error:
E: Unable to fetch some archives, maybe run apt-get update or try with --fix-missing?
After this I issued the recommended command it gives this error:
Err http://ports.ubuntu.com precise Release.gpg
and some other similar lines then:
W: Some index files failed to download. They have been ignore, or old ones used instead.
Please help me because I was also unable to install Lxde and the unity is stil full with bugs.

Now I found a spare 2gb sd card laying around so I decided to put Debian on it. It was pretty easy but I can not boot it. I think the problem is around the kernel. It was not really clear for me how to install it so I created 2 partitions on the card. The firt is around 20-30 mb for the kernel because the U-boot will search on it and the second for the filesystem itself.

I hope somebody can help me how to make it work, and I really hope that installing and configuring it will help this thread also.

Actually, I can try to add it to the script. Should I start?

The U-boot finds the kernel and seems that everything is OK but after it says: "Starting kernel." nothing happens and the white led remains on but when a correct starup is made the led goes off automatically.

I think now I have to revert te tradition multiboot as the new U-boot is not compatible with these kernels.

PanzerSajt, I've missed what distro you are trying to boot now and what are the exact kernel versions? Still Debian?
Almost everything works except one important thing: SGX. There are no drives on the internet you cannot install it, therefore the CPU have to run a huge amount of processes and render the desktop environment also. This fact makes it a little bit slow and sometimes really annoying but it works.
