Good for Pogoplug too?
December 06, 2010 12:51AM
I've installed Jeff's script on my Dockstar, and setup a music server with samba, Mediatomb, Firefly/mt-daapd and squeezebox, and it is working beautifully. Thank you Jeff and other contributors.

I'm thinking of converting my Pogoplug to a webserver for php apps. Does Jeff's script work equally well for Pogoplug as it does for the Dockstar?

Thanks,
Tim

Sure - I guess that the special configuration to make the Dockstar's LEDs blink correctly isn't needed but it still works on a Pogoplug like a charm. (And you'll have double the RAM, too).

AFAIR there were some posts dealing with that topic.

does jeffs vanilla script now get over the old script when run on pogoplugs taking the RAM down to 128MB ?

or do you have to find a specially tweaked one someone has done to get around this

I just used the vanilla script - not any tweaked version of it and it worked out of the box.

Cheers,

Semi-off topic...
I plug my working USB stick from my dockstar to a pogoplug but it doesn't boot up. Is there a reset switch on the pogoplug I can try warm start?

Doesn't look like it. At this point, I really would just use a USB stick that will cold boot. You'll likely just run into issues otherwise.
