Hello,

Yes, i know it doesn't have enough space on NAND (128Mib~) but enough
for /boot and / on external (SATA, USB, NFS ...).
The funplug script not work because the NAS have a bad firmware in my case.
At this time:

wget
http://jamie.lentin.co.uk/devices/dlink-dns325/replacing-firmware/dns-320.kwb
*<- save into a usb key*
printenv *<- to show MAC for exemple*
usb reset ; ext2load usb 0:1 0x1000000 /dns-320.kwb
nand erase.chip
nand write 0x1000000 0x000000 0xe0000
reset

setenv ethaddr "xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx" *<- to set mac*
setenv mtdparts
"mtdparts=orion_nand:896k(u-boot),128k(u-boot-env),-(rootfs)" *<- to set
partition**ing*
saveenv
reset

on other machine
wget
http://ftp.nl.debian.org/debian/dists/jessie/main/installer-armel/current/images/kirkwood/network-console/d-link/dns-320/netboot.img
apt-get install dns323-firmware-tools && splitdns323fw -k ukernel -i
uImage netboot.img *<- save uImage & uKernel **into a usb key*
usb reset ; ext2load usb 0:1 0x2000000 /uKernel ; ext2load usb 0:1
0x3000000 /uRamdisk ; bootm 0x2000000 0x3000000

After that, the debian installer boot and show only my usb key:*SCSI3
(0,0,0) (sda) - 3.9 GB  USB DISK
At the end it can't install the kernel
I'm stuck here.
