[Arm-netbook] debian for mele a1000 / a2000

[Rosimildo DaSilva]

I am re-doing everything again.

If remove the SD card, I see the stock OS booting.

I must have missed something.

One thing that is diferent is the geometry of my SD, and partition is like
this:

Disk /dev/sdc: 3965 MB, 3965190144 bytes
49 heads, 48 sectors/track, 3292 cylinders
Units = cylinders of 2352 * 512 = 1204224 bytes
Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytes
Disk identifier: 0x00000000

   Device Boot      Start         End      Blocks   Id  System
/dev/sdc1               4          18       17640   83  Linux
/dev/sdc2              19        3292     3850224   83  Linux
