is there *any* way to boot IP32 from hard drive ?

Hi List,
I've asked the very same question here before, but got no answer. Probably, the experts, who might have known the answer just overlooked it... (sorry guys for addressing some of you directly, but I'm really in trouble). The thing is that I desperately need to get the O2 to boot from its HDD, it'sall installed and supposed to be used as a standalone box.
First -- youre right to use the arcboot image from debian -- thats how i got it working.
Second -- not all kernels will run successfully, indeed -- the one i used was the glaurung 2.6.1 kernel from:
http://www.linux-mips.org/~glaurung/
This is the only kernel which worked for me so far, and it is not without it`s share of flaws, namely -- RTC, framebuffer, the AD-based sound chip and mouse all having issues. Also it hangs (at times) =)
Hope this helps.
regards, Samium Gromoff
