OpenWRT on Pogoplug Pro / V3 - Need Help Making U-boot Work

@habibie - You've got serial console and you have a stock Pogoplug so load the OpenWRT u-boot and firmware file (rootfs, same thing) following the instructions over at the OpenWRT forum. If it doesn't work out, you can easily overwrite the OpenWRT u-boot file with bodhi's latest u-boot and then go from there.

@LeggoMyEggo

I had that thought too.

FYI - I managed to boot OpenWRT using bodhi's uboot.

I'll try to post some instructions later tonight or tomorrow.

Were you able to "upgrade the firmware" (in OpenWRT speak) as well?

No "upgrade firmware" needed.

Figured out how to extract the rootfs and went with my original idea. Wi-fi isn't working though (maybe I don't have the right driver).

You are talking about the stock RT3090? Not surprised. If you post your blog tutorial soon, I'll test it with my Ath9k compatible wifi module (AR9485) and I would think it would work but won't know till I try.

Yes, the stock RT3090. I have the right driver loaded - kmod-rt2x00-pci - but not working. My RT5730 USB works fine though.

Awesome! Just confirming, with your setup, if you want to boot Debian you leave the Debian rootfs drive plugged in and if you wanna boot OpenWRT you make sure you don't have a USB disk labeled rootfs connected at boot time. Is that right? Of course you could always adjust the boot env's accordingly but this is your default right?

Some preliminary feedback:

These commands wouldn't work for me when I telneted to the OpenWRT CLI:

#Reconfigure Network to DHCP Client
#disable dhcp server on lan
uci set dhcp.lan.ignore=1
uci commit dhcp
/etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

#set wired ethernet interface to dhcp client
uci set network.lan.proto=dhcp
uci commit network

So I had to manually edit /etc/config/network with vi and comment change the settings for DHCP on eth0. Rebooted and the Pro showed up with dhcp address on my LAN. Then I could update and add all the packages you suggested. I could also login to LuCI.

Work In Progress: I bricked it.......I screwed up setting up the WAN/LAN/eth0/radio0 bridging in LuCI so I can't get a dhcp address on my LAN now. I've got to break out the serial console and correct the network stuff......................

What issues did you have with the uci commands?

You can mount the ubi partition from Debian to correct any network config issues versus using a serial connection.

I can't get my Atheros AR9485 card to work. When I go to enable it in the LuCi interface, for some reason the system crashes and I have to reboot. Now I am going to try a Edimax EW-7811UN usb adapter and see how it goes.

Edit: Dabbled with the EW-7811UN. Bad sign, entered 'lsusb' and the terminal spewed about 5000 lines of every possible device I think you could connect to the thing. Sample below. This is still beyond my skill level. Gave up for the night :(

@grayman4hire - FYI, while I couldn't get mpci-e wifi working yet, it does appear that a TP-LINK TL-WN823N USB 300M adapter (kmod-rtl8192cu) does work and is recognized by OpenWRT. I had to remove the RT2800 associated packages to get it recognized. Beyond that, I am struggling with all the OpenWRT quirks so I am having to reboot frequently because networking keeps breaking on me. I'm sure if I knew more about OpenWRT it wouldn't be so bad. Unfortunately there aren't as many resources for OpenWRT newbie help it seems so it's learning by 'breaking and bricking' or in other words the hard way.

I tried Gray's tutorial for OpenWRT installing off Debian stick on Pogoplug Pro, and it doesn't seem to work. Lights flash, but i can't get into it.
I'm real grateful for the obvious safeguards you have in place, as Debian stick will still boot. But i don't know where I went wrong at the tutorial.

The second time trying, I copied most of the page, from the command after "cat /proc/mtd" to the Pro wireless, as that's what I have on board. I had no additional wireless adapters plugged in or anything.

But yeah, super cool you have it rigged to boot Debian if USB stick is plugged-in, saved the day. I still don't know my u-boot terminology. But it's strange the lights act like something intelligent is going on in there. The thought just occurred to me, maybe it would be a troubleshooter if I unplug the stock Pogoplug wireless adapter from the mpcie.

There's a lot of weak points at my end here though, my Windows had that alert it couldn't find internet when hooking my PC directly up to the OpenWRT reboot, and I used both Windows Telnet and PuTTY with Telnet in various schemes such as straight cable, through Rosewill router with DHCP turned off (but Rosewill's IP is set to 192.168.178.1 [that usually feeds into the DSL modem which is 192.168.1.1 - that was turned off when doing the Telnet) and of course I was trying to get into 192.168.1.1

No hurry if you know of a solution or something - again that alternative boot you got in there is crazy cool. :-)

@JoeyPogoPlugE02,

First question would be, did you use my Debian tutorial referenced in the OpenWRT tutorial? Just want to understand your starting point.

Also, did you understand the below statement? During initial setup of OpenWRT, your computer and the Pogoplug should be directly connected. Your existing router and/or cable modem configuration does not come into play. When directly connected with the Pogoplug, your computer (assuming your using DHCP) should receive and IP Address from the OpenWRT Pogoplug. If you want to use static IP, set your computer to a 192.168.1.x IP Address.You then should be able to telnet into the Pogoplug at 192.168.1.1 and reconfigure the Pogoplug to act as a DHCP client. At which point your can now reconnect the Pogoplug and your computer to your router.

Quote

At this point, we're ready to boot into OpenWRT. Note that by default, OpenWRT will default to 192.168.1.1 and will act as a DHCP Server. Plug a network cable from your computer directly into the Pogoplug and power it on. You should now be able to Telnet into the Pogoplug at 192.168.1.1 (username and password not required). Note that SSH is disabled and will automatically start after a root password is set.

Post your uboot env (fw_printenv) and netconsole (setup if needed) output. A serial connection would be even better.

And/or post your complete OpenWRT installation log to make sure all the commands completed ok.

I just copy-pasted the whole works up to the wireless, and avoided the Pro part, opting for the classic. Then copy-pasted to poweroff.
This might work for all I know, but if not I'll try again tomorrow. I have this habit of doing the wrong things after bedtime lol

-update- no, almost seems like I need a crossover cable when direct connecting. Says it's trying to connect, then seems like it does, then the restless icon moves around trying to network. I've tried setting iv4 to "obtain IP automatically" as well as setting my Windows IP manually. As for telnet, I'm trying the built-in Microsoft Telnet as well at PuTTY set to Telnet on port 23, trying for 192.168.1.1
It wouldn't' surprise me if it actually installed, as the lights blink "intelligently". I may be days away from getting the proper cable for serial port, and forgive me if I have to attend to life's other demands for a day or so. Anyway here's the cut and paste from copy pasting:

The LED light will blink during bootup, but will shut off completely once booted into OpenWRT.

Post your uboot environment and netconsole logs. I think that is the best way to troubleshoot.

Also, probably best to run through the tutorial line by line and verify things are working properly versus cutting/pasting the whole thing blindly.

Lastly, try using the pogoplug pro dtb file (assuming that is what you have).

I don't see any issues, so not completely sure what's going wrong.

I'm fairly positive I tested the Pro with the non-pro dtb, but just incase, I would suggest trying the Pro dtb.

#Pogoplug Pro
/tmp/fw_setenv fdt_file_ubi '/boot/openwrt-oxnas-pogoplug-pro.dtb'

The other possibility is that the OpenWRT snapshot build is broken (new bug) which is possible since it's built nightly. I can give it a quick test this tonight or this weekend.

netconsole or serial connection can tell us more.

It said "couldn't' find directory" something like that when I ran the Pro dtb. Netconsole seems to not like Windows accessing it. sorry my vagueness but I can't stay awake and wish i'd ordered proper cables with my TTL thing. Still boots Debian so nothing's lost here. Also i might have an Intel Pro wireless mpcie (though b/g) to experiment on soon. Get the stock wireless out of Pogoplug so that's eliminated as a suspect maybe.

I just re-verified the OpenWRT installation on the Pogoplug Pro.

Here is my console installation log and uboot env for comparison:
http://blog.qnology.com/p/openwrt-on-pogoplug-v3oxnas-proclassic.html

I also updated my tutorial as I notices that the dhcp server on OpenWRT isn't started as I expected, so make sure to set your computer using a static ip address of 192.168.1.2 before trying to telnet into it.

SUCCESS! Gray the first time I tried this, did everything right except made an error making a password.
2nd attempt: paid attention to password and I'm in!

Wow! In with browser and have a GUI... wow when I look at the packages you included, even LuCI that's SO brilliant.

I sure thank you Gray and of course bodhi, leggo Gravelrash and pretty sure another I'll have to lookup.

Wow is this nice...For now I'll poke around the GUI indicators and eventually settle on a stable wireless. No big hurry on the wireless, but this kind of begs a couple. Wow and a half...

UPDATE -WHA? The LEDs work with OpenWRT support!! Blue makes the blue light up, green/green, I'm not going to push my luck trying orange ;-p
-more update- I see, you'd have to enable every time, but still... your choice of decor :-p

This is crazy cool, earth shattering. A 5-watt, 5-dollar masterpiece of ingenuity!

@joey,

Glad to hear you got it working. What was the original issue/confusion? Just curious so that I can improve the tutorial for future readers. Thanks

Gray I don't really know. First tries went with: 1. cut and pasted each line, didn't work, then 2. copied one large block up to the wireless part (then the second block of code), same result.

After whatever you did (?), I did the first method line-by-line and it worked, until I might have inputted conflicting passwords. It rebooted into Telnet but password locked me out. Second try, copied whole major block (sorry) up to wireless, and for kicks tried the second wireless option, the classic.

Super cool. I still have hardware chores like getting SATA port and pull the old wireless out of the mpcie slot, but will try that ASAP with my 2nd PogoPro. THANKs MAN! It's all magic to me, you know.

grayman4hire,

I have a question for you if you don't mind.

I was trying to build OpenWRT firmware for my PogoPlug Pro 02. When I did a make menuconfig, I noticed the kernel module for the wireless RT2x00 driver isn't enabled by default. I wonder if you did build your own OpenWRT firmware for your PogoPlug Pro and had to manually enable the RT2x00 driver.

@habibie.

Sorry, I have no experience building OpenWRT for the Pogoplug Pro. I don't think OpenWRT on the Pogoplug Pro is well supported (not many people using it and improving on it). Regardless if you add the wi-fi driver or not, I don't think it will work. There isn't a difference with having the drivers baked into the firmware versus installing it using opkg.

@grayman4hire - IC your point. Thanks.

I have successfully installed OpenWRT on the Pogoplug Pro NAND using grayman4hire's guide:
http://blog.qnology.com/2015/04/openwrt-on-pogoplug-v3oxnas-proclassic.html

However, the snapshot trunk release no longer includes the zImage kernel:
https://downloads.openwrt.org/snapshots/trunk/oxnas/generic/

So I used files from Chaos Calmer instead:
https://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05.1/oxnas/generic/

After guessing where to insert loadubi; (just before reset;) in bootcmd, it booted OpenWRT and set a static ip address of 192.168.1.1 and after connecting to my raspberry pi and setting it to 192.168.1.2, I was able to telnet in and set a root password. Switched to ssh and noticed uhttpd running and was able to log in to the LuCI GUI and switch to dhcp. Rebooted and connected to network, all is good. I can download and install packages using opkg or LuCI.

However, usb does not work. Nothing detected.

root@OpenWrt:~# lsusb

What could be wrong?
Thanks

dexter,

Which u-boot do have installed? and is that the only one you boot with (i.e. no chainload)?

And since you are using a different zImage, look for the kernel config file matching that image from where you've downloaded.

uboot.2015.10-tld-1.ox820.bodhi.tar
Yes, only one, no chainload.

I downloaded zImage from here:
http://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05.1/oxnas/generic/
openwrt-15.05.1-oxnas-zImage 1671992 15-Mar-2016 18:09

openwrt-15.05.1-oxnas-pogoplug-v3-squashfs-sysupgrade.tar

What kernel config file should I be looking for? Is it the fdt or dtb file?

dexter,

> What kernel config file should I be looking for?

Actually, neither. That kernel config file should be named something like config-xxx, and is in somewhere under:
http://downloads.openwrt.org/chaos_calmer/15.05.1/oxnas/

Try this if you have serial console, or have setup netconsole: plug in the USB drive, power up, and interrupt the console and do

usb start
usb part

see if the drive is recognized in u-boot. If it is not, then chance is that will not be recognized in Linux either.
