NSA325v2 doesn't work

Can i recover this?

Maybe. Depends on why the Debian install failed. You'll need to hook up a serial cable to find out. That should be a 3.3V TTL cable. The easiest way is an USB 3.3V TTL cable like this, but I know also of people who used the serial port of their Raspberry Pi. Anyway, only connect GND,TX and RX. Not Vcc.

Can you provide a full bootlog?

Saani

Hmmm, how can i mark and copy a whole bootlog (using "screen"? Because i can only see last 15 rows.(I managed to boot the original firmware, am not sure how)

Don't know. Doesn't your terminal emulator have a log option?
