Hi Bodhi,

I followed your instruction and reboot the device. I can not get into rescue nor USB now. What I should do next?

Thanks

Codier,

Power up, and interrupt neconsole, get the listing of u-booot envs and post here:

printenv

Hi Bodhi,

I will see if netconsole works(it probably not). In this situation,is serial cable my next step?

Thanks

codier,

Should try these in order:

1. Try netconsole, if you can connect with netconsole, it is easy to fix.
2. Recreate the 3.17 or 3.16 USB rootfs from scratch, by try booting with it, observe LED light to see the booting progress, if any.
3. Try davygravy's rescue tarball (since you have rescue installed).

If all 3 above failed, then

4. Connect serial console.

Thanks alot Bodhi:

I will report it back once I try the steps.

Hi Bodhi,

Didn't work for 1,2 and 3. Finally had to connect via serial console.
below is my printenv

codier,

It is now much easier with serial console. You can create the 3.16 or 3.17 rootfs per instruction:
http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096

Pls boot with the new rootfs and let us know once you're in Debian (post serial console log here if problem).

Meanwhile I will take a look at your u-boot envs for rescue settings.

codier,

These rescue envs were missing some variables. In serial console, reset the 3 envs below and then boot. Once you are in Debian, you can set them permanently with fw_setenv,

setenv force_rescue_bootcmd 'if test $force_rescue -eq 1 || ext2load usb 0:1 0x1700000 /rescueme 1 || fatload usb 0:1 0x1700000 /rescueme.txt 1; then run rescue_bootcmd; fi'
setenv rescue_bootcmd 'if test $rescue_installed -eq 1; then run rescue_set_bootargs; nand read.e 0x800000 0x100000 0x400000; bootm 0x800000; else run pogo_bootcmd; fi'
setenv rescue_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=$console ubi.mtd=2 root=ubi0:rootfs ro rootfstype=ubifs $mtdparts $rescue_custom_params'
boot

Thanks bodhi,

by the way, Do I need the following one?

setenv pogo_bootcmd 'if fsload uboot-original-mtd0.kwb; then go 0x800200; fi'

Only if you want to boot back to Pogo OS. It is not needed, since you already have rescue system installed.

I see, bodhi

I need some advise from you.
Is there a way to check the version and completeness of my rescue system? or regardless working or not maybe just reinstall it following by this link? Rescue V2.8.2 by davygravy

Just boot without the USB rootfs, and look at the serial console log to make sure it has no error. Ssh into the rescue system and check dmesg log.

Other than that, nothing else is really needed. It's a system to fallback when the USB rootfs is bad. You can also test with an empty USB to test the fallback booting process.

Hi bodhi,

Thanks for all your help. It's working now. But I have a question.
why it was trying boot USB few times and also keep doing the following
Unknown command 'mmc' - try 'help'
Unknown command 'ide' - try 'help'
** Bad device usb 0 **

anything wrong at beginning of the script?


Please see the follow log.

There is nothing wrong. The default script scans all type of devices (usb, mmc , ide), so when you use it for boxes, such as Dockstar, that don't have mmc and ide, the messages simply reports that those devices don't exist. I have since updated the settings to make getting rid of those messages a little easier. See section D.1 in the 1st post:

D.1 Modify u-boot envs:

However, you can choose to leave the current script as is, it does not hurt anything.

Thanks alot bodhi,

Everything is running good. By following your D.1 instructon, I added 1 more line because my Dockstar only has USB

fw_setenv devices usb

Hopefully I was doing right.

That was the correct modification. Now it is less noisy in boot log?

codier,

If you don't have any USB drive attached, then it would boot into the rescue system. Attach the USB stick and boot, see if you can boot into Debian.

But I think no matter boot into rescue nor USB, it shouldn't check mmc or ide because the device doesn't even have those.

I will boot into usb to see how it goes.

Have you changed anything other than the below?

Pls post the envs listing again. I'd like to take another look.

It seems booting USB doing the same thing. it looks like had to reboot once and USB boot it from 2nd time booting.
and again, mmc and ide still there.

codier,

The reason it did not work because you have not done section D in the installation instruction, especially

D.1 Modify u-boot envs:

The default envs include section D settings, but I've also modified it later, to make booting less noisy.

I have a question which a forum and Google search has not been able to answer. I loaded the latest Pogoplug E02 uboot on my Pogoplug-E01 which was the very first PP, its Kirkwood based and looks like a Sheevaplug but doesn't have a SD card or USB UART. The E02 uboot works fine but when I monitor uboot with serial console, it shows 256MB of RAM which is expected but shows 512MB of NAND which is unexpected.

Question: Does uboot actually confirm the RAM and NAND amounts or is this built into the uboot based on which platform kwb you chose? I am curious because I question the 512MB of NAND I am seeing.

Here is the initial stages of u-boot from serial console:

@LeggoMyEggo,

You are the lucky one :) it shows 512MB of NAND because there are actually 512MB in it. I don't think any u-boot has hard coded NAND capacity. Back a few years ago, some of us got the Dockstar with 512MB NAND, but it was rare.

With 512MB NAND, you have enough NAND to flash a skinny Debian rootfs on it. I think yours is more like the Sheevaplug than the Pogo E02. Can you control the LED correctly?

Also, make sure you actually have 256MB RAM (u-boot defines this). Did the box manual say it has 256MB RAM?

I picked up the E-01 second hand so I don't have the box or information that came with it and the internet is pretty void of any info on this particular Pogoplug. When I compared the motherboard on my E-01 to a standard Sheevaplug, the E-01 is missing two of the DRAM chips which would explain the missing 256MB that a regular Sheevaplug has. If the NAND is built into the SOC somehow, it would make sense that it has the same as a Sheevaplug as it's the same motherboard and it even says Globalscale on it.

With respect to the LED's, I can only get one to light up but before I modified u-boot, one lit up green and the other one lit up red when everything was working correctly (<<< edit: When it was stock both LED's lit up green). I guess I need to get the Sheevaplug LED scripts loaded on my rootfs so I can have proper control.

And as a side note and for posterity, it anyone comes across one of these be prepared to order a special connector in order to get serial console on this thing. It's a four connector like a regular PP but half the size smaller so you need the special Molex Pico connector and pins from the likes of Digikey. That's the only way I could connect to the thing without shorting the pins together. More info here:

Does your dmesg say it is a Pogo E01 or Pogo E02? the GPIO and /sys/class/leds/... might be same or different between the two.

Thanks bodhi. Everything is working now.
Now, time to fix my 2nd dockstar. lol
