A good news!I have almost succeeded in porting arm-archlinux! But I met a problem, because archlinux is scrolling the release of the release, the kernel upgrade is very frequent, can I start the system on the U disk directly, do not use Nand Flash? I see another problem in issue,but Use the commands that use to provide the machine can not start the machine! If it may be possible to provide a method

This would be possible. It would require making an initramfs and a kernel for it. These would be one time loaded into nand. The initramfs would load the new kernel for U drive and remount the root file system to the U drive. Not the easiest thing to accomplish.

Do you mean it? Boot sequence: ubootnand)--->initramfs(nand)---->kernel(udisk)--->rootfs(udisk)
