Cant boot into PlugOS

Hi Jeff,
Sorry here to bother you again...

Today I tried to install Debain couple times

For some reason I can't boot in PlugOS any more but debain
but in Debain everytime get different IP, here are fw_printenv and blparam

Error from booting PlugOS
I did copy some files to MTD2 before by doing

cd /tmp
mkdir pogo
mount -t jffs2 /dev/mtdblock2 /tmp/pogo

I don't know if what I did cause error on the end.

Is that a way to reflash the MTD2?

Thanks again

Second this issue, mine after happily following the squeeze install script.

It wouldn't be an issue, if most of the scripts here didn't all start with, 'boot into Pogo..'

The relevant error is here:

[    8.570000] JFFS2 compression type 0x07 not available.
[    8.580000] Error: jffs2_decompress returned -5

Which means that, somehow, your jffs2 partition is now compressed with LZO (type 0x07), which the old Pogoplug kernel doesn't support.

It might be possible to re-compress your partition with another algorithm, but I don't know anything about doing that.

If you can't find a way to do that, the following steps will help you restore the original pogoplug software on the mtd2 partition. To do so, boot into Debian and run the following commands:

# Restore mtd2
wget http://plugapps.com/os/pogoplug/ce_mirror/ce_ramdisk_v2.0b.img.gz
unzip ce_ramdisk_v2.0b.img.gz
flash_erase /dev/mtd2
nandwrite /dev/mtd0 ce_ramdisk_v2.0b.img

# Put a copy of the Pogoplug uBoot someplace accessible
cd /
wget http://jeff.doozan.com/debian/uboot/uboot-original-mtd0.kwb

Then reboot and interrupt uBoot and run the following from uBoot:

ext2load usb $usb_device uboot-original-mtd0.kwb 0x800000
go 0x800200

Hopefully that will put you into the original Pogo plug install. From there, you should re-run the uBoot installer to patch the Pogoplug environment and install the necessary uBoot files.

Hi Jeff,

Thanks for the information. :-)
Before your post, yesterday I went to local Office Depote and picked up a Dockstar for about $10.
Since just $10 so I dared myself then took this diection
Seagate_DockStar_Reflashing
Since my boot variables are all there so I only did

setenv ipaddr 192.168.1.123
setenv serverip 192.168.1.101
nand erase 0x100000 0x400000
tftp 0x800000 ce_kernel_redstone_v63.img
nand write.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x1e30f0
tftp 0x1000000 ce_ramdisk_v2.0b.img
setenv bootargs $(console) root=/dev/mtdblock2 initrd=0x1000000,0xb39a59
bootm 0x800000

But I when did the tftp 0x800000 ce_kernel_redstone_v63.img
I can see my tftp server start to send the file but stuck at 0% and never changed.
Then I checked the command on the u-boot and didn't see "fttp" but "fttpboot", so I guessed maybe the new u-boot caused tftp problem it.

My problam was can't boot in pogo but still can boot in debian with jeff's new u-boot
So I took chance flash back to original u-boot and reboot then the tftp works and my dockstart back to factory.
I will install the new u-boot and debian later.

Thanks Jeff for all your work and I learn a lot from your website.

Mark

I suppose there should be /dev/mtd2 instead of /dev/mtd0
Am I correct?
