Also, I tried booting off the USB stick with Debian and that worked though it hadn't before!

unmesh,

Booting Debian looks good, and you've confirmed it. You can't boot into Pogo OS (when there is no USB plugged in) because the mtd partiton that houses the orginal u-boot has error.

If you want to do boot Pogo OS, you have to find a original copy of the mtd (rootfs) and the orginal u-boot image copy somewhere, reflash mtd, and copy the u-boot image file back in.

Hi Bodhi,

thanks, without parantheses it works.

But the watchdog is not disabled?

I found the image for the Dockstar that supposedly has the same electronics and am willing to try it. How would I reflash it?

@sunfire,

Yes, the watchdog is disabled whe u-boot starts.

@bodhi

But it is still restarting after cold start.

I set bootdelay to 20, this solved the problem.

But i thought the disabled watchdog stops the restart problem.

-sunfire

@sunfire,

Restart could be caused by reasons other than watchdog. Please post the serial boot log when it restarted.

@unmesh,

It's best if you create a new thread for this.

And list the info about where you got the mtd images, what do they look like (size,...date...) and what command was used to dumpt these mtds to files. It is not possible to suggest how to do it without the information.

@bodhi

It shows nothing special in serial boot log.

You hear a "beep" and it interrupts the boot process and start new.

-sunfire

sunfire,

There is no way for me to tell what's wrong without the entire serial boot log :)

Hey i have debian working on my pogo v4, and wanted to try openwrt, build an image from trunk and put it on a usb.

this all works except for the fact that openwrt uses different names for calling the kernel images.

i have worked around getting uImage to work (simply rename it)

but im not getting uInitrd to work, keeps giving me these errors:

## Loading init Ramdisk from Legacy Image at 01100000 ...
   Image Name:   ARM OpenWrt Linux-3.14.18
   Created:      2014-09-15  10:37:51 UTC

   Load Address: 00008000
   Entry Point:  00008000
   Verifying Checksum ... OK
No Linux ARM Ramdisk Image
Ramdisk image is corrupt or invalid

i tried renaming a bunch of files, no luck. any suggestions on how to proceed?

Edit:

scrap that, i did not do enough research, openwrt does not use a uInitrd file, so not containing it will simply skip it and move to boot.

Hi:

I followed all the steps and successfully flashed this 2014.07 uBoot to my Pogoplug V4-03-01.

Serial console (need to solder again) and Netconsole works fine

I want to run OpenWRT but no success at all. I got message:

EXT4-fs (sda1): couldn't mount as ext3 duw to features incompatibilites.
.
.
.
No filesystem could mount root, tried: ext3.

This USB memory stick boots correctly in my Dockstar and GoFlexNET with davygravy's uBoot.

I formated the USB as ext2 and ext3. I also tried an SD with ext3. Nothing.

Anybody who has successfully run OpenWRT with this uBoot and can help me would be appreciated.

Juan C. Galvez,

In serial console, get the output of printenv and the boot log from begining until the above rootfs mounting error, and post here.

Thank you Bodhi for your reply.

I am not going to be able to do that until week end. As soon as I can get it I will post here.

@bodhi,

here is my serial log before auto restart:

@sunfire,

I did not see anything wrong in your boot log. So hard to say what went wrong. However, to have a peace of mind, you can verify that the watchdog has been killed by doing this:

- boot with serial and stop it at the count down.
- and stay at the prompt for more than 30 seconds (executing some commands or just wait at the prompt).
- after 30 seconds, if the watchdog is still alive, it will kick in and reset the box.
- after waiting at the prompt long enough, you can do things like ide reset, usb restart,… and wait again to see if the watchdog come back.
- then boot. If the box resets, then please capture the log and post here.

I don't think the kernel did anything to reactivate the watchdog (but it does try to kill it again in startup). And I know we killed it in u-boot already. So if you could cause it to run again, then we have a bug somewhere!

@bodhi

When i stop the countdown after cold start, and enter boot command it starts without any problem.

Now with bootdelay 20 in u-boot enviroment it starts also without problems.

But with bootdelay smaller than 20 it reboots while booting.

Something must execute the reboot?

@sunfire,

With bootdelay less than 20, does it always reset after the kernel is loaded, i.e. during the rootfs mounting? when it reset what did the output look like? it has to show something, such as u-boot banner, can you post it?

I tested bootdelay 10 and 20, and only 20 works.

It always reset after mount the partitions or init the network.

After reset it show the normal u-boot banner:

U-Boot 2013.10-tld-1 (Aug 29 2014 - 22:07:26)

and it starts again, reset again and again and again.
It's like groundhog day :)

That's the watchdog alright.

Darn :)

Warhead, so is it possible that the watchdog was temporarily resurrected somehow when the kernel start booting? Our GPIO setting in u-boot was unset somehow?

It's just as likely that you have only temporarily disabled it with that mashing of the GPIO.

So should we try smashing it again at the point where u-boot exit to buy some more time. Kludgy, but it might be necessary if we can't permanently disable it, can we? I recall you were thinking about doing something with the PHY.

Based on what you experienced, I think your HDD must have taken a long time to spin up, mount, fsck… And the bootdelay 20 has helped in that it gets the HDD to a ready state that it could survive the watchdog that probably has been re-activated while kernel is finishing mounting the roofs.

I know from testing that you could stop u-boot and sit at the prompt, you can take all days and don't see the watchdog. So it looks like I will need to investigate why and at what point the GPIO was reset to enable it running again.

All,

On further thought, I think this is best to handle this in kernel initrd.

@WarheadsSE,

My conclusion is somehow something caused the watchdog to run again, even it was turned off in kernel nsa325_setup. Perhaps we need a module to wack it again?

@bodhi

Perhaps what is happening is that the uboot is tripping it off. Then the kernel is tripping it back on? Consider it like a momentary push button. Trip on, Trip off, repeat. Can you test against a kernel _without_ the logic to trip it?

@WarheadsSE,

I'd assumed the GPIO was set, not toggling. But I'll try that.

@WarheadsSE,

It seems your suggestion is what has happened :) I rebuilt the kernel without the GPIO tripping code and then booted a few times without seeing the watchdog. The total boot time, with a USB 4TB HDD attached, varied from 32 to 41 seconds. I purposely caused unclean shutdowns to get fsck on rootfs to get it delay that much. But of course, only sunfire can verify this for sure!

@sunfire,

Please try new kernel and let me know.
