I now understand my message was written too fast without explaining my
real problem. After the installation of gNewSense, I can't get further
than the PMON> prompt. I'm at
http://wiki.gnewsense.org/Projects/GNewSenseToMIPS at step 4

By the way in PMON> I've found use of the devls command, which I believe
shows what the names of my devices are. When I use it, it shows:
> PMON> devls
> Device name   Type
> rt10  IFNET
> wd0   DISK
> usb0  DISK

So I try the 4th step(in PMON console):
> load /dev/fs/address@hidden/boot/vmlinux-2.6.27.7-libre
> Couldn't find device [wd0]
> /dev/fs/address@hidden/boot/vmlinux-2.6.27.7-libre: Undefined error: 0
PMON> devls
> Device name   Type

> usb0          DISK

although one of the steps when I installed gNewSense I had used this
command and it worked without errors:
> load /dev/fs/address@hidden/vmlinux (elf)
> (elf)
> 0x80200000/5275782 + 0x80708086/444330(z) + 10830 syms\
> Entry address is 80206080
> PMON>
This command didn't give me the "Couldn't find device [usb0]" kind of
errors.

Now I hope I've corrected some of the mistakes I did while trying to
express what my problem is.
