Hi everyone,

I am planning to sell my old Pogoplug Pro as I don't use it anymore. This device was (is) running Debian, but I would rather prefer to revert it back to the stock firmware (which is a bit easier for non-geek!) before selling.

My Debian installation was based (at the time) on various How-To ; but I mainly used http://mehl.co/articles/installing_debian_on_the_pogoplug/ and http://blog.qnology.com/2013/03/tutorial-pogoplug-e02-with-arch-linux.html as sources.

In order to revert to stock I followed the following instructions: http://uvwxy.de/wordpress/2014/01/19/revert-pogo-pro/

So far, I am not so bad as I can boot without my rootfs USB key, my Pogo is connected to the network/internet and I can SSH as root.

But I miss one thing : the original service (hbmgr.sh if I am right) is not properly working (and therefore, the official Pogoplug website can not access the device). With the following :

# cd /etc/init.d/
# ./hbmgr.sh start

I get

Tweaking default linux memory parameters...
./hbmgr.sh: line 141: modprobe: not found
./hbmgr.sh: line 141: insmod: not found
Loading rt3070sta.ko:        ./hbmgr.sh: line 141: insmod: not found
Success
Loading xce.ko:              ./hbmgr.sh: line 141: insmod: not found
Success
Starting hbplug:             Success

It's look like I'am missing modprobe/insmod and so on (lsmod is not usable/installed as well). My kernel is

# uname -r
2.6.31.6_SMP_820

So my question is: am I on the right kernel? Looks like I am missing something here!

Any help is welcome, regards

nb: if needed, I may set a serial connection

Ok... Feeling a bit dumm: I just forgot to unregister my device on pogoplug.com :-/

Meaning that, even if the service displayed error, it is (in fact) running!

Everything back in order now, problem solved!
