Hi,
Thank You for Your great support and a way to unlock power in my Pogoplug.

I have Pogoplug E02. Brand new, just activated. Ive gain asscess to SSH and I am trying to update uboot to be able to use alternative linux distro like Debian or Archlinux.

I am struggling with the update procedutre. Simply - It cant install new uboot.

Ive tried few times - at first it downloaded some files and it took some operations but unfortunaletty I dont have log for this. But anyway - it stops in the same way as at first run: rm: "cannot remove '/tmp/valid-uboot.md5': No such file or directory"
Heres terminal output:
Using username "root".
-bash-3.2# cd /tmp
-bash-3.2# wget http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh

-bash-3.2# chmod +x install_uboot_mtd0.sh
-bash-3.2# ./install_uboot_mtd0.sh

Pogoplug restarts without any problems and work flawlessly but still I d like to play with full linux distro...
