Linux Kernel 5.4.xx Oxnas package and rootfs for Pogoplug Pro V3 (with PCI) and Classic V3 (no PCI). Also the Medion Life P89626, Akitio Mycloud mini, and the possibly other OXNAS boxes such as Silverstone DC01, Iconbit I-STOR IS608 (under development). If you install this kernel on other OX820 boxes, please post your finding so it can be added to the supported list.
Latest released kernel: linux-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1.bodhi.tar.bz2 (12 Feb 2024)
Latest released rootfs: Debian-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (17 May 2020)
Note: If this is your first time installation, then you only need rootfs Debian-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (this has kernel linux-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1 already installed). Scroll down to 17 May 2020 section.
With this kernel we can run the Pogo V3 boxes with the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later). To run with stock U-Boot, use kernel 3.18.5 or earlier.
Summary decription:
The released tarball linux-x.xx.x-oxnas-tld-x-bodhi.tar.bz2 includes everything you need to build your own kernel from mainline kernel source tree (patches and config file are all that needed). The kernel image is included in it for users who just want to install kernel.
The released tarball Debian-x.xx.x-oxnas-tld-xx-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 is a basic armel rootfs (a completed Debian system with kernel already installed) for Oxnas OX820 boxes ready to be used. It is a basic system where you can build upon by installing packages. This rootfs was created by Debian debootstrap and then a few packages were installed for user’s convenience. This rootfs is dedicated for the purpose of upgrading and release distribution.
Historical Background:
These 2 threads are included here for information and credits only, Dropbox download links and installation procedure are after the break below.
Credits:
Neil Armstrong (OXNAS maintainer) and Daniel Golle (OpenWRT). OpenWrt patches were adapted to this kernel for Debian (starting from kernel 4.4.x).

This tarball contains 6 files:
Installation:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
3. Extract the tarball for the dtb files
4. And install it with dpkg. Remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem.
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually (kernel files vmlinuz-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 and initrd.img-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 were generated by the dpkg command in step 4) :
6. Set up U-Boot envs (Skip this step 6 if already done in previous kernel installtion).
6.a Set the env for DTB to the box name
Note: You must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo V3 Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo V3 Classic (no Wifi), then make sure you have the right DTB name in dtb_file env. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.
For example, check the DTB (this is when you have the Pogo V3 Classic):
Set the env if necessary
Note: The DTBs are available for supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
6.b. In recent kernels, in order to see and set u-boot envs correctly in Debian, this env needs to be updated:
7. Sync. And reboot
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
Deprecated.
DONE.

Updated 16 Nov 2022:
Kernel linux-5.4.224-oxnas-tld-1 package was uploaded.
New/Update features:
- General kernel upgrade.
- Fixed Shuttle OmniNAS KD20 DTB.
- See Step 6b for important update in u-boot envs
- Note: I would recommend removing netconsole support from the rootfs for the OXNAS box, if you have set it up with this tutorial: "Use netconsole to troubleshoot Debian kernel booting". It has been quite unreliable using netconsole in OXNAS kernel, and you could get stuck at the network bring up. OTOH, netconsole setup during u-boot booting is OK, working as intended.

And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.
INSTALLATION:
Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.
Note: all steps below must be done while logging in as root user (not sudo). If you are not the root user then don't continue, because the rootfs will not work.
1. Format a new USB drive with a single Ext3 partition, and label it rootfs. If you are running the latest released uboot for OXNAS then you can use Ext4.
2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. cd to top level directory and extract it. It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1
3. Adjust fstab (optional).
Edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for root device to match the rootfstype of your rootfstype if you use Ext4 or Ext2. However, you can keep it as Ext3 without problem in booting since the kernel will figure out which file system the rootfs was formatted.
4. Create uImage with embedded DTB for booting with stock u-boot. Skip this step if you have installed the latest released uboot for OXNAS, or are installing this u-boot at the same time.
- If you have the Pogo V3 Classic (without Wifi), then the DTB name below should be ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb (see below for the list of OX820 DTBs).
Note: The DTBs are available for supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
- If your Linux box does not have mkimage, then install it
5. Done installation. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.
After booted into Debian, see Note1, 2, and 3 below. It is very important that you do Note1 steps to secure your box.
=====
Note1:
After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package security updates:
Warning: Watch the apt-get upgrade progress. If the apt-get upgrade results in a new initramfs, the log would shows this message:
Then you need to regenerate the uInitrd boot file:
Note2:
To boot with systemd, add this parameter to your u-boot env bootargs. If you are booting with my latest released uboot for OXNAS then use the uEnv.txt capability to do this. See the instruction about uEnvt.txt in that thread.
For example, the bootarg for systemd was added to the end of this usb_set_bootargs env to set bootargs (on your box it might be different env):
If that's still not possible to run systemd, you might want to install it again:
Note3:
For setting up wireless on the Pogo Pro, please see: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,16044,20964#msg-20964

Kernel linux-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 package was uploaded.
New/Update features:
NOTE: Please see this post for the new DTB tarball linux-dtb-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-2.tar (all OXNAS boxes). The new DTBs fix the SATA problem with Pogo Pro, and also enable the kernel to use the MAC address passed by u-boot to bring up network (fixed the problem with the MAC address generated randomly by the kernel)
- Add Button (event input) capability.
- Since this kernel release is a significant upgrade from previous 4.4.201 version (lots of changes internally since then), make sure to back up your rootfs before installation.

Installation:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
3. Extract the tarball for the dtb files
4. And install it with dpkg. If you encounter error with flash-kernel when running dpkg, then remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem.
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually (kernel files vmlinuz-4.4.189-oxnas-tld-1 and initrd.img-4.4.189-oxnas-tld-1 were generated by the dpkg command in step 4) :
6. Setup U-Boot envs:
Note: Again, you must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo Classic (no PCI), then adjust the DTB name. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.
Note: DTBs for supported and potentially supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
7. Sync. Double check your u-boot envs, make sure there is no error. And reboot
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
Deprecated.
DONE.

Latest released kernel: linux-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1.bodhi.tar.bz2 (12 Feb 2024)
Latest released rootfs: Debian-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (17 May 2020)
Note: If this is your first time installation, then you only need rootfs Debian-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (this has kernel linux-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1 already installed). Scroll down to 17 May 2020 section.
With this kernel we can run the Pogo V3 boxes with the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later). To run with stock U-Boot, use kernel 3.18.5 or earlier.
Summary decription:
The released tarball linux-x.xx.x-oxnas-tld-x-bodhi.tar.bz2 includes everything you need to build your own kernel from mainline kernel source tree (patches and config file are all that needed). The kernel image is included in it for users who just want to install kernel.
The released tarball Debian-x.xx.x-oxnas-tld-xx-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 is a basic armel rootfs (a completed Debian system with kernel already installed) for Oxnas OX820 boxes ready to be used. It is a basic system where you can build upon by installing packages. This rootfs was created by Debian debootstrap and then a few packages were installed for user’s convenience. This rootfs is dedicated for the purpose of upgrading and release distribution.
Historical Background:
These 2 threads are included here for information and credits only, Dropbox download links and installation procedure are after the break below.
- Booting Debian on Pogoplug Pro. This is the oldest thread, where we started with Arch Linux ARM kernel, and Debian squeeze rootfs. In the first post, you can find links for Varkey's squeeze rootfs, shv's wheezy rootfs, ingmar_k's Emdebian installation, and navym (kref)'s Arch thread about kernel 3.12+ and u-boot.
- New uboot and kernel for Pogoplug v3/Pro. This thread is more recent, shv started this thread to bring attention about the new 3.12+ kernel activity at Arch site.
Credits:
Neil Armstrong (OXNAS maintainer) and Daniel Golle (OpenWRT). OpenWrt patches were adapted to this kernel for Debian (starting from kernel 4.4.x).

Installation:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
Quote
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx

config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
dts/
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
cd /boot tar -xjf linux-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1.bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Extract the tarball for the dtb files
cd /boot tar -xf linux-dtb-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1.tar
4. And install it with dpkg. Remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem.
cd /boot apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1_1_armel.deb
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually (kernel files vmlinuz-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 and initrd.img-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 were generated by the dpkg command in step 4) :
cd /boot mv uImage uImage.bak mv uInitrd uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-5.4.268-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd
6. Set up U-Boot envs (Skip this step 6 if already done in previous kernel installtion).
6.a Set the env for DTB to the box name
Note: You must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo V3 Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo V3 Classic (no Wifi), then make sure you have the right DTB name in dtb_file env. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.
For example, check the DTB (this is when you have the Pogo V3 Classic):
fw_printenv dtb_fileoutput:
dtb_file=/boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb
Set the env if necessary
fw_setenv dtb_file '/boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb'
Note: The DTBs are available for supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb ox820-kd20.dtb ox820-akitio.dtb ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb ox820-stg212.dtb
6.b. In recent kernels, in order to see and set u-boot envs correctly in Debian, this env needs to be updated:
fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=41000000.nand-controller:14m(boot),-(data)'
7. Sync. And reboot
sync sync sync shutdown -r now
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
Deprecated.
DONE.

Updated 16 Nov 2022:
Kernel linux-5.4.224-oxnas-tld-1 package was uploaded.
New/Update features:
- General kernel upgrade.
- Fixed Shuttle OmniNAS KD20 DTB.
- See Step 6b for important update in u-boot envs
- Note: I would recommend removing netconsole support from the rootfs for the OXNAS box, if you have set it up with this tutorial: "Use netconsole to troubleshoot Debian kernel booting". It has been quite unreliable using netconsole in OXNAS kernel, and you could get stuck at the network bring up. OTOH, netconsole setup during u-boot booting is OK, working as intended.

linux-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1.patch
Installation:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
Quote
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
dts/
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
cd /boot tar -xjf linux-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1.bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Extract the tarball for the dtb files
cd /boot tar -xf linux-dtb-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1.tar
4. And install it with dpkg. Remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem.
cd /boot apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually (kernel files vmlinuz-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1 and initrd.img-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1 were generated by the dpkg command in step 4) :
cd /boot mv uImage uImage.bak mv uInitrd uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1 uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-5.4.210-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd
6. Setup U-Boot envs:
6.a Set the env for DTB to the box name
Note: You must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo V3 Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo V3 Classic (no Wifi), then make sure you have the right DTB name in dtb_file env. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.
For example, check the DTB (this is when you have the Pogo V3 Classic):
fw_printenv dtb_fileoutput:
dtb_file=/boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb
Set the env if necessary
fw_setenv dtb_file '/boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb'
Note: The DTBs are available for supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb ox820-kd20.dtb ox820-akitio.dtb ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb ox820-stg212.dtb
6.b. In recent kernels, in order to see and set u-boot envs correctly in Debian, this env needs to be updated:
fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=41000000.nand-controller:14m(boot),-(data)'
7. Sync. And reboot
sync sync sync shutdown -r now
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
Deprecated.
DONE.

And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.
INSTALLATION:
Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.
Note: all steps below must be done while logging in as root user (not sudo). If you are not the root user then don't continue, because the rootfs will not work.
1. Format a new USB drive with a single Ext3 partition, and label it rootfs. If you are running the latest released uboot for OXNAS then you can use Ext4.
2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. cd to top level directory and extract it. It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1
cd /media/sdb1 tar -xjf Debian-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Adjust fstab (optional).
Edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for root device to match the rootfstype of your rootfstype if you use Ext4 or Ext2. However, you can keep it as Ext3 without problem in booting since the kernel will figure out which file system the rootfs was formatted.
LABEL=rootfs / ext3 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
4. Create uImage with embedded DTB for booting with stock u-boot. Skip this step if you have installed the latest released uboot for OXNAS, or are installing this u-boot at the same time.
- If you have the Pogo V3 Classic (without Wifi), then the DTB name below should be ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb (see below for the list of OX820 DTBs).
cd /media/sdb1/boot cp -a uImage uImage.orig cp -a zImage-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1 zImage.fdt cat dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb >> zImage.fdt mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n 'Linux-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1' -d zImage.fdt uImage sync
Note: The DTBs are available for supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb ox820-kd20.dtb ox820-akitio.dtb ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb ox820-stg212.dtb
- If your Linux box does not have mkimage, then install it
apt-get install u-boot-toolsor if you are creating this rootfs on an ARM box, then use the mkimage in this rootfs:
/media/sdb1/usr/bin/mkimage
5. Done installation. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.
After booted into Debian, see Note1, 2, and 3 below. It is very important that you do Note1 steps to secure your box.
=====
Note1:
After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package security updates:
rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host* ssh-keygen -A apt-get update apt-get upgrade
Warning: Watch the apt-get upgrade progress. If the apt-get upgrade results in a new initramfs, the log would shows this message:
Quote
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1
Then you need to regenerate the uInitrd boot file:
cd /boot cp -a uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-4.14.180-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd
Note2:
To boot with systemd, add this parameter to your u-boot env bootargs. If you are booting with my latest released uboot for OXNAS then use the uEnv.txt capability to do this. See the instruction about uEnvt.txt in that thread.
init=/bin/systemd
For example, the bootarg for systemd was added to the end of this usb_set_bootargs env to set bootargs (on your box it might be different env):
fw_setenv usb_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=$console root=$usb_root rootdelay=$usb_rootdelay rootfstype=$usb_rootfstype $mtdparts init=/bin/systemd'
If that's still not possible to run systemd, you might want to install it again:
apt-get install systemdAlso, check systemd location at /lib/systemd/systemd (/bin/systemd is a symlink to this binary).
Note3:
For setting up wireless on the Pogo Pro, please see: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,16044,20964#msg-20964

New/Update features:
NOTE: Please see this post for the new DTB tarball linux-dtb-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-2.tar (all OXNAS boxes). The new DTBs fix the SATA problem with Pogo Pro, and also enable the kernel to use the MAC address passed by u-boot to bring up network (fixed the problem with the MAC address generated randomly by the kernel)
- Add Button (event input) capability.
- Since this kernel release is a significant upgrade from previous 4.4.201 version (lots of changes internally since then), make sure to back up your rootfs before installation.

linux-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1.patch
Installation:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
Quote
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
dts/
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
cd /boot tar -xjf linux-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1.bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Extract the tarball for the dtb files (Update: please use the DTB tarball linux-dtb-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-2.tar mentioned above).
cd /boot
tar -xf linux-dtb-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-2.tar
4. And install it with dpkg. Remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem.
cd /boot apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually (kernel files vmlinuz-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 and initrd.img-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 were generated by the dpkg command in step 4) :
cd /boot mv uImage uImage.bak mv uInitrd uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-4.14.176-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd
6. Setup U-Boot envs:
Note: Again, you must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo Classic (no PCI), then adjust the DTB name. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.
fw_setenv dtb_file '/boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb'
Note: The DTBs are available for supported OXNAS boxes in /boot/dts/ folder:
ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb ox820-kd20.dtb ox820-akitio.dtb ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb ox820-stg212.dtb
7. Sync. Double check your u-boot envs, make sure there is no error. And reboot
sync fw_printenv reboot
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
Deprecated.
DONE.

6. Setup U-Boot envs:
Note: Again, you must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo Classic (no PCI), then adjust the DTB name. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.

And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.
Installation:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
cd /boot tar -xjf linux-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1.bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Extract the tarball for the dtb files
cd /boot tar -xf linux-dtb-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1.tar
4. And install it with dpkg. If you encounter error with flash-kernel when running dpkg, then remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem (It is much better to generate uImage and uInitrd manually anyway):
cd /boot apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually (kernel files vmlinuz-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1 and initrd.img-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1 were generated by the dpkg command in step 4) :
cd /boot mv uImage uImage.bak mv uInitrd uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1 uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-4.4.123-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd

Rootfs Debian-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 was uploaded.
Basic Debian stretch Oxnas rootfs for Popo Pro/Classic V3 plug:
- tarball size: 180M
- install size: 477M
- Installed packages: nano, avahi, ntp, busybox-syslogd (log to RAM), htop, dialog, bz2, iperf, ethtool, sysvinit-core, sysvinit, sysvinit-utils, mtd-utils.
- see LED controls in /etc/rc.local, and /etc/rc0.d/K08halt

INSTALLATION:
Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.
Note: all steps below must be done while logging in as root user (not sudo). If you are not the root user then don't continue, because the rootfs will not work.
1. Format a new USB drive with a single Ext3 partition, and label it rootfs. If you are running the latest released uboot for OXNAS then you can use Ext4.
2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. cd to top level directory and extract it. It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1
3. Adjust fstab (optional).
Edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for root device to match the rootfstype of your rootfstype if you use Ext4 or Ext2. However, you can keep it as is without problem in booting since the kernel will figure out which file system the rootfs was formatted.
4. Create uImage with embedded DTB for booting with stock u-boot. Skip this step if you have installed the latest released uboot for OXNAS, or are installing this u-boot at the same time.
- If you have the Pogo V3 Classic (without Wifi), then the DTB name below should be ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
- If your Linux box does not have mkimage, then install it
5. Done installation. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.
After booted into Debian, see Note1, 2, and 3 below. It is very important that you do Note1 steps to secure your box.
=====
Note1:
After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package security updates:
Warning: Watch the apt-get upgrade progress. If the apt-get upgrade results in a new initramfs, the log would shows this message:
Then you need to regenerate the uInitrd boot file:
Note2:
To boot with systemd, add this parameter to your u-boot env bootargs. If you are booting with my latest released uboot for OXNAS then use the uEnv.txt capability to do this. See the instruction about uEnvt.txt in that thread.
For example, the bootarg for systemd was added to the end of this usb_set_bootargs env to set bootargs (on your box it might be different env):
If that's still not possible to run systemd, you might want to install it again:

Updated 28 Mar 2017:
Fix to improve Ethernet perfornance
The network performance is degraded on the Pogo V3 OXNAS because the OXNAS ethernet driver turn on flow control by default. We need to turn it off in the driver, and that will be incorprated in the next kernel release. At the moment, the workaround is to do turn it off with ethtool.

B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
If you're running the Pogoplug V3 with stock U-Boot (or the ALAM variant by installing Arch Linux before), the easy way to boot your rootfs with the new kernel is to boot with stock U-Boot tftp. The instruction is the same for section 1 (Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND), but the uImage needs to be created with the DTB file embedded inside it, and the u-boot environment varialbes need to be setup differently. Assuming you've already set up tftp server on another Linux box.
1. Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
Copy both uImage and uInitrd to your tftproot server directory
2. Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Set up booting envs. Please adjust the ipaddr (the Pogo V3 IP address) and serverip (the tftp server IP address) to your specific local network settings.
3. Test the tftp booting in serial console:
4. After verifying it works, set bootcmd permanently in Debian:

And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.
INSTALLATION:
Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (SD card or HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.
1. Format a new Ext3 USB drive, and label it rootfs. Note: if your existing uBoot env for rootfs type is ext2, then you might want to keep it consistent and use Ext2 USB drive. It will work with Ext3 drive without problem, though.
For example:
2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. As root user, cd to top level directory and extract it.
3. edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for /dev/root to match the rootfstype of your usb_rootfstype (however, you can keep it as Ext2 without problem in booting an Ext3 partition).
4. Create uImage with embbeded DTB to run with older u-boot. Please see Note 2 below if you are running this kernel witht the new U-Boot.
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
5. Done. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.
Note1: After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package updates:
Note2: To simplify the first time installation process, the uImage is recreated with the DTB embedded in step 4. If you are familiar with FDT kernel booting, and want to boot with separate DTB, see the Kernel 3.17 installation section A.6 in this thread for instruction about setting up u-boot envs. Or if you are going run this kernel with the new u-boot as mentioned, then do set up booting as described in section A.6.
Note3: if the Linux box that you are using to create rootfs does not already have mkimage installed then install u-boot-tools package to make it available:

linux-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.patch
INSTALLATION:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
3. Create a dts directory for the dtb files
4. And install it with dpkg. If you encounter error with flash-kernel when running dpkg, then remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem (It is much better to generate uImage and uInitrd manually anyway):
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
6. Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
Set up booting envs:
7. Sync. Double check your u-boot envs, make sure there is no error. And reboot
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
If you're running the Pogoplug V3 with stock U-Boot (or the ALAM variant by installing Arch Linux before), the easy way to boot your rootfs with the new kernel is to boot with stock U-Boot tftp. The instruction is the same for section 1 (Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND), but the uImage needs to be created with the DTB file embedded inside it, and the u-boot environment varialbes need to be setup differently. Assuming you've already set up tftp server on another Linux box.
1. Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
Copy both uImage and uInitrd to your tftproot server directory
2. Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Set up booting envs. Please adjust the ipaddr (the Pogo V3 IP address) and serverip (the tftp server IP address) to your specific local network settings.
3. Test the tftp booting in serial console:
4. After verifying it works, set bootcmd permanently in Debian:

And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.
INSTALLATION:
Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.
Note: all steps below must be done while logging in as root user (not sudo). If you are not the root user then don't continue, because the rootfs will not work.
1. Format a new USB drive with a single Ext3 partition, and label it rootfs. If you are running the latest released uboot for OXNAS then you can use Ext4.
2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. cd to top level directory and extract it. It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1
cd /media/sdb1 tar -xjf Debian-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Adjust fstab (optional).
Edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for root device to match the rootfstype of your rootfstype if you use Ext4 or Ext2. However, you can keep it as is without problem in booting since the kernel will figure out which file system the rootfs was formatted.
LABEL=rootfs / ext3 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
4. Create uImage with embedded DTB for booting with stock u-boot. Skip this step if you have installed the latest released uboot for OXNAS, or are installing this u-boot at the same time.
- If you have the Pogo V3 Classic (without Wifi), then the DTB name below should be ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
cd /media/sdb1/boot cp -a uImage uImage.orig cp -a zImage-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1 zImage.fdt cat dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb >> zImage.fdt mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n 'Linux-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1' -d zImage.fdt uImage sync
- If your Linux box does not have mkimage, then install it
apt-get install u-boot-tools
5. Done installation. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.
After booted into Debian, see Note1, 2, and 3 below. It is very important that you do Note1 steps to secure your box.
=====
Note1:
After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package security updates:
rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host* ssh-keygen -A apt-get update apt-get upgrade
Warning: Watch the apt-get upgrade progress. If the apt-get upgrade results in a new initramfs, the log would shows this message:
Quote
update-initramfs: Generating /boot/initrd.img-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1
Then you need to regenerate the uInitrd boot file:
cd /boot cp -a uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-4.4.54-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd
Note2:
To boot with systemd, add this parameter to your u-boot env bootargs. If you are booting with my latest released uboot for OXNAS then use the uEnv.txt capability to do this. See the instruction about uEnvt.txt in that thread.
init=/bin/systemd
For example, the bootarg for systemd was added to the end of this usb_set_bootargs env to set bootargs (on your box it might be different env):
fw_setenv usb_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=$console root=$usb_root rootdelay=$usb_rootdelay rootfstype=$usb_rootfstype $mtdparts init=/bin/systemd'
If that's still not possible to run systemd, you might want to install it again:
apt-get install systemd

Updated 28 Mar 2017:
Fix to improve Ethernet perfornance
The network performance is degraded on the Pogo V3 OXNAS because the OXNAS ethernet driver turn on flow control by default. We need to turn it off in the driver, and that will be incorprated in the next kernel release. At the moment, the workaround is to do turn it off with ethtool.
Boot into Debian and:
ethtool -A eth0 rx off tx off

cd /boot tar -xf linux-dtb-4.4.38-oxnas-tld-5.tar
4. And install it with dpkg. If you encounter error with flash-kernel when running dpkg, then remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem (It is much better to generate uImage and uInitrd manually anyway):
cd /boot apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-4.4.38-oxnas-tld-5_5_armel.deb
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
cd /boot mv uImage uImage.bak mv uInitrd uInitrd.bak mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-4.4.38-oxnas-tld-5 -d vmlinuz-4.4.38-oxnas-tld-5 uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-4.4.38-oxnas-tld-5 -d initrd.img-4.4.38-oxnas-tld-5 uInitrd
6. Setup U-Boot envs:
Note: you must have the latest U-Boot (e.g. 2013.10 and later) installed to do this step.
If you have the Pogo Pro (with PCI) then there is no need to adjust the DTB variable. If you have other boxes such as the Pogo Classic (no PCI), then adjust the DTB name. Other envs in the default can be adjusted later after booted into Debian.
fw_setenv dtb_file '/boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb'
Note: DTBs for supported and potentially support boxes:
ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb ox820-kd20.dtb ox820-akitio.dtb ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb ox820-stg212.dtb
7. Sync. Double check your u-boot envs, make sure there is no error. And reboot
sync fw_printenv reboot
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
This method is deprecated due to the kernel 4.0 Oxnas size and stock u-boot limitation. Please see kernel linux-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1for instruction to install that kernel version if you are still running stock u-boot.
DONE.

Updated 16 April 2015:
Kernel linux-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1 package was uploaded. The following features are new in this version:
- Added keyboard supports
- Added bluetooth supports, including ath3k
- Added nls-utf-8 supports.
- Add various kernel configs that are new in 4.0 (e.g. device tree overlay).
Warning: This kernel has grown too big, so it will not work for stock u-boot or its Arch u-boot variant. Stock u-boot has a limitation of 4M uImage, so it will not boot. Please stay with kernel 3.18.5 if you're still booting with stock u-boot. The new u-boot works without limitation. In the future, if requested, I could try to move some module to initramfs to shrink it. However, I'm not sure about the timeline, and whether it is worthwhile to spend time to do.
Credits: thanks to various forum members (LeggoMyEggo, Gravelrash, Robert, denexo, and many others) to report and request the missing features above.

INSTALLATION:
A. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
1. Backup your current uImage and uInitrd and other kernel files. In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
2. Extract the kernel in the archive:
cd /boot tar -xjf linux-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1-bodhi.tar.bz2
3. Create a dts directory for the dtb files
cd /boot mkdir dts mv ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb dts/ mv ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb dts/
4. And install it with dpkg. If you encounter error with flash-kernel when running dpkg, then remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem (It is much better to generate uImage and uInitrd manually anyway):
cd /boot apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1_1.0_armel.deb
5. Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
cd /boot mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1 -d vmlinuz-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1 uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1 -d initrd.img-4.0.0-oxnas-tld-1 uInitrd
6. Setup U-Boot envs:
The u-boot envs below are for 1st time upgrading, you don't need to do this step if you've installed the latest U-Boot for Oxnas. Just make sure the DTB file is the correct one for your box, replace ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with the correct DTB name for your box (if you have other OXNAS box).
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
Set up booting envs:

7. Sync. Double check your u-boot envs, make sure there is no error. And reboot
sync fw_printenv reboot
B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
If you're running the Pogoplug V3 with stock U-Boot (or the ALAM variant by installing Arch Linux before), the easy way to boot your rootfs with the new kernel is to boot with stock U-Boot tftp. The instruction is the same for section 1 (Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND), but the uImage needs to be created with the DTB file embedded inside it, and the u-boot environment varialbes need to be setup differently. Assuming you've already set up tftp server on another Linux box.
1. Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
cp -a zImage-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1 zImage-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1.fdt cat dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb >> zImage-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1.fdt mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1 -d zImage-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1.fdt uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1 -d /boot/initrd.img-3.18.5-oxnas-tld-1 /boot/uInitrd
Copy both uImage and uInitrd to your tftproot server directory
2. Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Set up booting envs. Please adjust the ipaddr (the Pogo V3 IP address) and serverip (the tftp server IP address) to your specific local network settings.
fw_setenv usb_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10' fw_setenv ipaddr '192.168.0.222' fw_setenv serverip '192.168.0.224' fw_setenv uinitrd_addr '0x60e00000' fw_setenv uimage_addr '0x60500000' fw_setenv tftp_bootcmd 'run bootcmd_tftp' fw_setenv tftp_boot 'bootm $uimage_addr $uinitrd_addr' fw_setenv tftp_load_uinitrd 'tftpboot $uinitrd_addr uInitrd' fw_setenv tftp_load_uimage 'tftpboot $uimage_addr uImage' fw_setenv bootcmd_tftp 'run usb_set_bootargs; run tftp_load_uimage; run tftp_load_uinitrd; run tftp_boot'
3. Test the tftp booting in serial console:
> run bootcmd_tftp
4. After verifying it works, set bootcmd permanently in Debian:
fw_setenv bootcmd 'run bootcmd_tftp'
==============================================================
Updated 02 Nov 2014:
Rootfs Debian-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 was uploaded. This rootfs is to keep in sync with kernel Linux-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.
Basic minimal Debian Oxnas rootfs for Popo Pro/Classic V3 plug:
- tarball size: 83M
- install size: 251M
- a basic wheezy rootfs
- Installed packages: nano, avahi, ntp, busybox-syslogd (log to RAM), htop, dialog, bz2.
- see LED controls in /etc/rc.local, and /etc/rc0.d/K08halt
- see some useful aliases in /root/.profile
- root password: root
Download at Dropbox:
Debian-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (re-uploaded Apr 28, 2020).
md5:
c8e9df471f331c56befc4051a754bfea
And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.
INSTALLATION:
Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (SD card or HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.
1. Format a new Ext3 USB drive, and label it rootfs. Note: if your existing uBoot env for rootfs type is ext2, then you might want to keep it consistent and use Ext2 USB drive. It will work with Ext3 drive without problem, though.
For example:
set_bootargs_usb=setenv bootargs console=$console root=$usb_root rootdelay=$rootdelay rootfstype=$rootfstype $mtdparts rootfstype=ext2
2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. As root user, cd to top level directory and extract it.
cd /media/sdb1 tar -xjf Debian-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2
3. edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for /dev/root to match the rootfstype of your usb_rootfstype (however, you can keep it as Ext2 without problem in booting an Ext3 partition).
/dev/root / ext2 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
4. Create uImage with embbeded DTB to run with older u-boot. Please see Note 2 below if you are running this kernel witht the new U-Boot.
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
cd /media/sdb1/boot cp -a zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1 zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.fdt cat dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb >> zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.fdt mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n 'Linux-3.3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1' -d zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.fdt uImage sync
5. Done. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.
Note1: After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package updates:
rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host* ssh-keygen -A apt-get update apt-get upgrade
Note2: To simplify the first time installation process, the uImage is recreated with the DTB embedded in step 4. If you are familiar with FDT kernel booting, and want to boot with separate DTB, see the Kernel 3.17 installation section A.6 in this thread for instruction about setting up u-boot envs. Or if you are going run this kernel with the new u-boot as mentioned, then do set up booting as described in section A.6.
Note3: if the Linux box that you are using to create rootfs does not already have mkimage installed then install u-boot-tools package to make it available:
apt-get install u-boot-tools
Note4: For setting up wireless on the Pogo Pro, please see: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,16044,20964#msg-20964

B. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
If you're running the Pogoplug V3 with stock U-Boot (or the ALAM variant by installing Arch Linux before), the easy way to boot your rootfs with the new kernel is to boot with stock U-Boot tftp. The instruction is the same for section 1 (Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND), but the uImage needs to be created with the DTB file embedded inside it, and the u-boot environment varialbes need to be setup differently. Assuming you've already set up tftp server on another Linux box.

Copy both uImage and uInitrd to your tftproot server directory
2. Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Set up booting envs. Please adjust the ipaddr (the Pogo V3 IP address) and serverip (the tftp server IP address) to your specific local network settings.

linux-3.15.3-tld-1-oxnas.patch (for compiling kernel: this patch should be applied to the kernel source from mainline)
Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic:
If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.
INSTALLATION:
1. Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND (see new U-Boot thread here)
- Backup your rootfs to another USB stick or HDD.
- Boot into your Pogo V3 and change directory to:
cd /boot
- Backup your current uImage and uInitrd (if there is any). In the /boot directory, these are files for your current kernel (xx.xx.xx is the version number):
uInitrd
uImage
initrd.img-xx.xx.xx-xxx
System.map-xx.xx.xx-xxx
vmlinuz-xx.xx.xx-xxx
config-xx.xx.xx-xxx
- Extract the kernel in the archive:
tar -xjf linux-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1-bodhi.tar.bz2
- Create a dts directory for the dtb (just for organization purpose)
mkdir dts mv ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb dts/
- And install it with dpkg. If you encounter error with flash-kernel when running dpkg, then remove flash-kernel first to avoid potential problem (It is much better to generate uImage and uInitrd manually anyway):
apt-get remove flash-kernel dpkg -i linux-image-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1_5_armel.deb
- Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n Linux-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 -d /boot/vmlinuz-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 /boot/uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 -d /boot/initrd.img-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 /boot/uInitrd
- Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Your booting envs should look like below. These are only for demonstration for the correct load addresses (not to be cut/paste as is). However these are my current u-boot envs.
uinitrd_addr=0x60e00000 uimage_addr=0x60500000 dtb_addr=0x62c00000 usb_set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10 dt_bootm=bootm $uimage_addr $uinitrd_addr $dtb_addr dt_load_dtb=ext2load usb 0:1 $dtb_addr /boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb dt_load_initrd=ext2load usb 0:1 $uinitrd_addr /boot/uInitrd dt_load_uimage=ext2load usb 0:1 $uimage_addr /boot/uImage dt_usb_boot=run dt_load_uimage; run dt_load_initrd; run dt_load_dtb; run dt_bootm dt_usb_bootcmd=run usb_set_bootargs; run dt_usb_boot dt_bootcmd_usb=usb start; run dt_usb_bootcmd; usb stop; reset bootcmd=run dt_bootcmd_usb
- Connect serial console/netconsole and monitor the boot log.
- Sync. Double check your u-boot envs, make sure there is no error. And reboot
sync fw_printenv reboot
2. Installation to run with stock U-Boot in NAND
If you're running the Pogoplug V3 with stock U-Boot (or the ALAM variant by installing Arch Linux before), the easy way to boot your rootfs with the new kernel is to boot with stock U-Boot tftp. The instruction is the same for section 1 (Installation to run with new U-Boot in NAND), but the uImage needs to be created with the DTB file embedded inside it, and the u-boot environment varialbes need to be setup differently. Assuming you've already set up tftp server on another Linux box.
- Create uImage and uInitrd manually:
cp -a zImage-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 zImage-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1.fdt cat dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb >> zImage-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1.fdt mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n 'Linux-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1' -d zImage-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1.fdt uImage mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x60000000 -e 0x60000000 -n initramfs-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 -d /boot/initrd.img-3.15.3-oxnas-tld-1 /boot/uInitrd
Copy both uImage and uInitrd to your tftproot server directory
- Setup U-Boot envs:
Disclaimer: The following U-Boot envs settings are recommendation only. If you don't have serial console connected, please do not attempt. Be aware that changing U-Boot env settings to the wrong values will lock you out of the box until you can connect a serial console.
Your booting envs should look like below. These are only for demonstration for the correct load addresses (not to be cut/paste as is). However these are my current u-boot envs. Please adjust the ipaddr (the Pogo V3 IP address) and serverip (the tftp server IP address) to your specific local network settings.
usb_set_bootargs=setenv bootargs console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10 ipaddr=192.168.0.222 serverip=192.168.0.224 uinitrd_addr=0x60e00000 uimage_addr=0x60500000 tftp_bootcmd=run bootcmd_tftp tftp_boot=bootm $uimage_addr $uinitrd_addr tftp_load_uinitrd=tftpboot $uinitrd_addr uInitrd tftp_load_uimage=tftpboot $uimage_addr uImage bootcmd_tftp=run usb_set_bootargs; run tftp_load_uimage; run tftp_load_uinitrd; run tftp_boot
- Test the tftp booting in serial console:
> run bootcmd_tftp
After verifying it works, set bootcmd permanently in Debian:
fw_setenv bootcmd 'run bootcmd_tftp'

Download ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb:
If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), also download the attached ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb in this post.
Installation:
- format a new ext3 USB drive, and label it rootfs. Note: your uBoot env for usb_rootfstype must match your USB file system, and it can be Ext2, Ext3 or Ext4. To be able to use this rootfs with stock u-boot, it should be formatted as Ext3. But if you're running new u-boot then it could be Ext4.
- As root user, cd to top level directory and extract it (assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1)
cd /media/sdb1 tar -xjf Debian-3.12.13-oxnas-tld-5-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2- Edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for /dev/root to match the rootfstype of your usb_rootfstype.
- If you have the Pogoplug V3 Classic (with no PCI) then replace the DTB
mv boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb.bak mv ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb boot/dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb
- Sync to complete .
sync
- On your Pogo Pro, modify your u-boot envs as decribed in the kernel installtion section (updated 12 May 2014), if you have not done so. And please be sure that you read the Disclaimer in that paragraph!
- Connect serial console/netconsole and monitor the boot log
- Cold start your Pogo with this USB rootfs.
Note:
After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to do update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package updates:
apt-get update apt-get upgrade
==============================================================
Updated 12 May 2014:
Kernel linux-3.12.13-oxnas-tld-5 package was uploaded. The following features were added:
- The kernel is now running with PREEMPT scheduling.
- Ability to boot with root=LABEL=rootfs in kernel parameters so the rootfs will be correctly identified by initrd always (i.e. among multiple attached SATA/USB disks).
- Ability to use Ext2/Ext3/Ext4 rootfs.
- LED is turned on green correctly when the kernel has booted.

I recently acquired 3 PPV3 devices with the B01 revision. They all work perfectly. Along with my arudino projects and raspberrypi projects I've decided to add these low powered devices. I am a long time user of Debian on a lot of different hardware platforms and would like to install it on at least one of these devices. That said, I'm new to this forum and I'm having a hard time wading into the pool. The process of installing to this specific hardware has been frustrating me. Mostly the frustration I am having is trying to find the most current installation information that is viable and still down-load-able. I was able to install the Arch linux distro to a 4GB usb drive but after that I've had little success getting Squeeze or Wheezy to install.
For some reason I seem to get stuck in a loop while searching for the installation instructions. They point back around to the same point and I can't find any current or up to date info. Google is your friend and it almost all seems to point back to the doozan web site for this topic. If it doesn't diretly then the pages link back or give it as the source of their information so one way or another it links back here.
Any light you can shine on the topic at hand would be greatly appreciated.

thebladerunner,
The kernel/rootfs that I uploaded in this thread is the latest out there. Thanks to kref works.
The summary for the current status re Pogo V3:
- new U-Boot is available (but I have not uploaded it yet). See here.
- new Debian kernel and wheezy rootfs are available.
- installation must be done manually (no script)
You are running the B01, which does not have PCI, I assume. This kernel/rootfs could work with it using the Pogo V3 Classic Device Tree file. I have not tried it on my V3 Classic (it's somewhere still in the box since I bought it on a fire sale last year).
In the past, we run Debian rootfs with Arch kernel in NAND, because nobody has compiled Debian kernel for it. But now we do now, so it is full blown Debian.
Feel free to ask questions, I know it's a little bit confusing re this Pogoplug. I just never have time to write up more details description.

@Ingmar,
No, I haven't. I did try to bring it to 3.14, but patching has some strange problem and I have not looked further. I thought the openwrt is a straight patch from kref sources. Perhaps you know there is more patch on top ?

No, I haven't. I did try to bring it to 3.14, but patching has some strange problem and I have not looked further. I thought the openwrt is a straight patch from kref sources. Perhaps you know there is more patch on top ?

Here is post that has Pogo V3 Classic DTB attached (it's untested). It might work with the Pogo Pro kernel.

And I've updated 1st post to add more info.

The openwrt guys seem to have brought it to 3.14, already. Have a look here:

I've also posted this problem at Arch site to get more feedback.
----------------------------------------------------------------
Netconsole problem in kernel 3.12.13 oxnas.
Did anybody set up netconsole in Arch successfully? I'm seeing this problem running Debian and I thought it is probaly in Arch, too. Apparently, the carrier detect happened so fast that it was deemed untrustworthy by netpoll. The end result: eth0 is not brought up properly later. I've tracked it down to this code, and it does not seem to a bug, just the way it was designed:
http://lxr.free-electrons.com/source/net/core/netpoll.c?v=3.12#L1137
Log:
So is netpoll a little too strict in determining how trustworthy the carrier detect is?
TIA for any feedback,

My pleasure :) It took some minor retrofitting to rebase this Oxnas 3.12 kernel to 3.14 (common PCIe kernel interface changes). I did try to look at OpenWrt patch, but due to my unfamiliarity with it, I could not see exactly what changes they've made!

WOW! A new kernel for the EOL Oxnas! EPIC!
I'll try it asap!
Edit:
Does it work with Pogoplug V3 non Pro too? (I only have the non-WIFI version)
I tried it now with Pogoplug V3 non Pro ("classic"), and it doesn't work for me. Don't know if I did anything wrong.
I screwed it up anyway: I first updated the UBoot, that worked without any problems. But after that I couldn't boot back into my Debian Squeeze rootfs; obviously in my rootfs there wasn't anything in /boot; I thought I had a backup of /boot but sadly I can't find it anymore.
So I tried using the new rootfs with the new kernel, but the Pogoplug V3 gets stuck at
Is there any way how I can revive that device?

theliquid,
This kernel is for the Pro with PCI.
You can try to use the ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb file that I've attached in this post:
http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,15912,16053#msg-16053
Save your ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb and replace this dtb to the same place, same name. And see if you can boot with it. The Classic does not have PCI controller, hopefully the DTB will tell it that there is no PCI and it will boot OK.
If this does not work, I'll compile the Classic version. I meant to do this eventually, but have not got time to do it :)

Addition: I successfully upgraded to kernel version 3.14.0. I just let the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb in place.
The best feature of your uboot/kernel is that I can finally boot up that Pogoplug with more than one usb drive attached. (With the older kernel/uboot it didn't start when I attached more than the rootfs-usb-device).

Awesome!
Note in booting multiple USB/SATA. If only one partition is labeled rootfs, then it will be found correctly. And it does not matter how many devices that contain Debian installation . But if more than one partition are labeled rootfs then you might run into the situation when the kernel uImage and uInitrd from one partition, but the actual rootfs is from another! In this situation, their labels should be different (e.g. rootfs1, rootfs2,….)

theliquid,
TUN It is not included in the current config, and I could build a new version to include it. But I'm about to be on the road for a while, so probably about late next month is when I can test and release.
