 hi all

I don't know the right place to address my questions for discussion.
Anyway.
I need to setup Ubuntu 13.10 on Armada XP board.
There is no CD-ROM on this board, only USB.
I successfully boot with initrd provided on   https://wiki.ubuntu.com/ARM/Server/Install
page.
But debian installer fail on step "Install the Base System'" without
any usefull comments, all looks fine including disk partitioning etc.
Can I extract base system to partitioned HDD manually with some shell command?

Also, can I install 13.10 with qemu-system-arm?
I need to know correct arguments for qemu-system-arm to do it.

Alternatively, the only thing I need is preintalled rootfs for 13.10 like it provided for 12.0.4.

Or just point me to the right place\s to ask my questions.
Thanks.

$ qemu-system-arm -M ?
