I'd like to upgrade to the newest u-boot image for my e02, but i'm a bit stuck. When I built my e02, i followed the instructions here: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5/pogoplug-v2-pinkgray this evidently gave me a u-boot that doesn't have wget:

Download the files you need (utilities and flash files) on a desktop machine running Windows or Linux. Put the files on a flash drive formatted to Fat32. On the plug, use busybox to create a directory in /tmp (i.e. mkdir /tmp/flashloc) and mount the flash drive to that location - usb start, mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/flashloc. Cd to /tmp/flashloc. Chmod a+x all the utility files. Then run all the suggested utilities preceding the commands with /tmp/flashloc/ example /tmp/flashloc/nandwrite ............

Thank you Leggo! I really appreciate it, I can't believe I didn't think to try that. I'll report back

EDIT: Uggg, no busy box. I did try tftp and it does respond despite not being listed:

PogoE02> tftp -?
No link on egiga0

ubermacin,

u-boot does not have wget. And you can't install u-boot at u-boot prompt in a normal way as in Debian or Arch (different instructions is needed). The best way to install u-boot is to boot into Arch or Debian and start from there.

bodhi's corner (buy bodhi a beer)

Hallo,

I haven't uses my DockStar for quiet a while but now I like to use it again.
So I decided to do a complete update (and start in this sence from scratch).

First of all thanks to all the contributors and especially to bodhi, to keep all the necessary things updated.

I updated to u-boot to 2014.07 according to this thread. I also used the uboot.2014.07-tld-2.environment.img to update and adopted the u-boot environment according to my system / environment.
I downloaded Debian-3.18.5-kirkwood-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 (also from bodhi) and followed the installation instructions and I also updated to the latest kernel 4.0.0. In principle everything works fine and I can boot to Debian Jessie.

Now my problem:
I also wanted to update the rescue system (to v 2.8.2). But there is no /dev/mtd1 or /dem/mtd2 anymore. From Debian
"cat /proc/mtd" shows:
mtd0: 10000000 00020000 "orion_nand"
"cat /proc/cmdline" shows:
console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/sda1 rootdelay=10 rootfstype=ext3 orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data)
Obvious mtd0 is to large. I have no idea why and where this happens. How can I recreate /dev/mtdx? I understood from some google-reading that this is passed as argument to the kernel?
Could you give me some advice? Any more information needed (serial connection to the box is also working)

Thanks
Pit

Pit,

This was because your u-boot env for mtdparts was not defined correctly.

When you do cat /proc/cmdline, It should show:

mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data)

It's a common error when you set the env for mtdparts. There are 2 mtdparts string.

fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data)'

So when you list it again, it should be

mtdparts=mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data)

Is something else missing in the environment?`

Something is missing in the bootargs, it's is hard to tell without seeing the kernel command line. Please post the entire serial boot log including the mount error above.

Hello,
i have a NSA320 and a while ago i succesfully (kind of ) installed the 2011.12 uboot and 3.17 Linux.
Only the USB didnt work and i wrote for help about it here: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,19251,19251#msg-19251

I did not succeed in solving the Problems, dont remember what i tried exactly.
Then i put it away for some months, and want to give it a new start now.

I have netconsole (on my macbook terminal , nc -klu 6666 worked best for me) and serial line hooked up via minicom or coolterm.

First , i had an error

 ** ext2fs_devread() read outside partition sector

i fixed this by tar'ing the HD's content, making a new part scheme with a 3GB ext2 primary partition named "rootfs" again, and untaring the aformentioned contents there. The rest of the HD and the second drive slot may stay empty for now.
I also made an USB Flash Stick with the same filesystem and contents.
When i boot now, i get this in the netconsole:

How do i solve this error?
did i miss an important file?
The tar /untar commands didnt throw errors...
I would also like to install a 4.xx kernel. and maybe also latest uboot, if required.
I understand from your posting, that all the commandline stuff runs on the actual system,
but i am stuck with the minimal (maybe busybox?) shell at the "nsa320>" prompt.
How and where do i enter the correct info?
Yours sincerely

Dirk,

You're running u-boot 2011.12 which does not support FDT kernel booting the normal way. So to run kernel or rootfs 3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1, you need to append the NSA320 DTB file to the uImage.

In the instruction for kernel 3.17, this step stated:

Quote

4b. Boot with DTB file embedded in the kernel image (no U-Boot envs change needed)

Generate the uImage and uInitrd:
cd /boot
cp -a zImage-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1 zImage.fdt
cat dts/kirkwood-goflexnet.dtb >> zImage.fdt
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T kernel -C none -a 0x00008000 -e 0x00008000 -n Linux-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1 -d /boot/zImage.fdt /boot/uImage
mkimage -A arm -O linux -T ramdisk -C gzip -a 0x00000000 -e 0x00000000 -n initramfs-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1 -d /boot/initrd.img-3.17.0-kirkwood-tld-1 /boot/uInitrd

You should mount this USB rootfs on a different Linux box and regenerate uImage.

Thanks a lot, that did help!
wonderful!
And i even remembered my root password...

One strange thing: i tried your "4b" solution on the USB flash stick first, but it couldnt find the root filesystem(as i think of it now, not THAT strange). T hen i copied the entire /boot folder to the harddisk, and there it worked.

Now i can go and try to upgrade to the latest kernel.
Do i need to upgrade to a newer uboot as well?

Anyway, a BIG thanks to the swift response.

Because the instruction was written for installing kernel on a live system. If you mount the USB on a different machine, /boot in the above needed to be adjusted to be under the mount point, for example if the mountpoint is /media/sdb1, then:

/media/sdb1/boot

I've updated the instruction slightly to take that into account in later kernel release (i.e. 3.18, 4.0), but did not update previous one.

> Do i need to upgrade to a newer uboot as well?

It is recommended, because sooner or later you will need modern features that the newer u-boot provides (see the description). But you can always postpone until you actually need to do that.

OK, i successfully tried to update to latest u-boot, and kernel.
Now, everything works just fine, even the USB Ports...
I changed the /etc.rc.local to include the following right at the top:

echo heartbeat  >/sys/class/leds/nsa320:orange:sys/trigger
echo usb-host   > /sys/class/leds/nsa320:green:usb/trigger
echo ide-disk1  > /sys/class/leds/nsa320:green:hdd1/trigger
echo ide-disk2  > /sys/class/leds/nsa320:green:hdd2/trigger

Is there a reason why this isnt enabled by default?
I would like to blink the HDD LEDs in red, when i run smartctl via cron script at night, and it exits nonzero.
Has anybody already set up a script? Shouldn't be too hard, maybe i'll do it myself, and post it here.
Also i would like to hook up a small (low power) beeper instead of the red copy LED, which then could to give me an audible feedback, like this:

echo timer  > /sys/class/leds/nsa320:red:copy/trigger

When i just installed munin-node(to report system internals to some other linux box), i found that the folder /sys/class/hwmon is empty, and sensors-detect (run as root) from the package lm-sensors doesnt find any sensors.
Do i need to install something else(other than lm-sensors)?
BTW, Davygravy wrote in an older posting(here), that this worked for him.

@shivahoj,

> Is there a reason why this isnt enabled by

No particular reason at all. They just have not been taken care of, due to no user's request! I guess others always set them in rc.local and did not bother request me to put the default LED states in the kernel. Agree, they should have been defaulted to somthing.

The NSA3xx hwmon module was missing in this version due to kernel code change that I was not aware of. I've incorporated this module back in Kernel 4.0.0-kirkwood-tld-1.

-bodhi

bodhi's corner (buy bodhi a beer)

Then there someting else is wrong, because i have installed

root@zyxie:/sys/devices/platform/gpio_keys/input# uname -a
Linux zyxie 4.1.0-kirkwood-tld-1 #2 PREEMPT Sun Jun 28 01:12:41 PDT 2015 armv5tel GNU/Linux

, it should work then. Maybe something else is wrong?

Was the module running?

lsmod

if nsa3xx-hwmon is not in the list then

modprobe nsa3xx-hwmon

Hi,

in the newer devicetree enabled linux kernels from linux-3.18.5 onwards, the hwmon nsa3xx module for the NSA320
is not working, because the gpio pins 14, 16, 17 which are the relevant gpios for the

pmx_mcu_data,
pmx_mcu_clk,
pmx_mcu_act

signals of the mcu are not exposed outside via compatible descriptions to the nsa3xx driver, see kirkwood-nsa320.dts,..

I have looked into that already, but did not find any suitable documentation of devicetree
bindings for this special case,where an hwmon capable mcu is connected to gpio's,
and not - as it is the normal way - is connected via i2c bus,...

so without that, the nsa3xx hwmon kernel module will simply never!! work again,
meaning the compatible descriptions in the devicetree implementation for nsa320
are simply not defined by the dts devs of the linux kernel,

see: http://lists.infradead.org/pipermail/linux-arm-kernel/2014-April/245202.html

as this has been asked several times in this forum a quote from this link clarifies the situation:

This DTS just describes the features that
 work with the current kernel drivers. New drivers still
 need writing to support the temperature sensor, the
 power on behaviour control and the buzzer

so it will not be working until somebody finds a solution how to expose the gpios to the
nsa3xx hwmon module in kirkwood-nsa320.dts in the same way as it was functioning in
nsa320-setup.c from peter schildmann for nsa3xx-hwmon before linux kernels 3.16,..

Thanks for the information, again :) I remember you've reported this problem before but somehow it never got on my Todo list. I will look into this. Perhaps we can incorporate the old setup into the new kernel.

@pbg4,

On second thought, I recall now that you've said you might give it a try in fixing this hwmon (I think that's why it was under my radar :)

Will you have free time to look into this? or do you need more help?

Looking at this : http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,16532,22608#msg-22608 . Perhaps if the hwmon driver patch is too drastic, we could instead add a patch in kirkwood GPIO to only do this for NSA320 (i.e. CONFIG_SENSORS_NSA3XX)? I know it's not as nice, but it'll work around it without a script.

Hi bodhi,

perhaps it is best to give an example what should be done in kirkwood-nsa320.dts,

in devicetree nomenclature it should be as simple as that code snippet below,
that would be all that is to be done basically, to get nsa3xx-hwmon going,
(beware, the code snippet is just an example of how it should be done, it will not work!!)

however: ----> there is no compatible description for gpio-hwmon,...

in order to get this upstream, we will perhaps have to contact one
of the linux devs, e.g. shesselba who cares for the armada stuff, and kirkwood pincntrl, etc. I have written an email
to him, let's see if he reacts and if he can help us,

all the definitions which are available are in linux-4.1/Documentation/devicetree/bindings but you
will not find anything usefull for a hwmon capable mcu which is connected to gpio's and not i2c, there are descriptions for thermal sensors, but they don't fit either,..

but maybe there are more opinions on that issue here in the forum,

best wishes pbg4

        nsa3xx-hwmon {
                compatible = "gpio-hwmon;
                pinctrl-0 = <&pmx_mcu_data &pmx_mcu_clk &pmx_mcu_act>;
                pinctrl-names = "default";

                mcu-data {
                        gpios = <&gpio1 14 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
                };

                mcu-clk {
                        gpios = <&gpio0 16 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
                };

                mcu-act {
                        gpios = <&gpio0 17 GPIO_ACTIVE_HIGH>;
                };
        };

@ pbg4,

Adding a DTS device is not difficult, as you've just illustrated. The time consuming part is to test and fix any error. I don't have the NSA320 box so I would rely on you :)

Hello,
I have a E02 pink pogo and like many others I tried with Archlinux tutorial on http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5/pogoplug-v2-pinkgray.
Now I have only access to alarm on flash stick and only two mtd partitions visible (mtd0 and mtd1). Can I proceed with doozan uboot installation from Arch and what else needs to be done to be able to boot to original pogo software without attached flash memory? What about environment variables?
I have already install wget with pacman.

edit: also no bad blocks

@miksi,

No, Jeff's u-boot is too old. You'll need to install my latest u-boot build in the first post of this thread.

> and what else needs to be done

See this post at Arch site for how to migrate from Arch u-boot (or search this forum for user TEN posts):
http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=30&p=46069#p46069

PS.

Regarding original Pogo OS: You will need to get the orginal NAND images from others here and restore them. It seems Arch installation has some how corrupted the orginal OS (unintentionnally of course), according to TEN.

Hello,
i would gladly offer my NSA320 to test any upcoming software development.
I have two of them(one in Zyxels original firmware version, one with latest Uboot and Kernel). I still want to try to download and save first one's MTD contents, check the possibility of re-installation, and then also flash it to latest Uboot and Kernel.
Maybe i could speed up this process(maybe 'til tomorrow evening) and then send one of the boxes over to you, or give you ssh access to the box.
Or you could send me instructions, on how to test new software versions.
If you are interested, drop me a line, i will send you my contact details via PM.

Dirk

2 Pieces NSA320 , u-boot 2016.05, debian 4.12.1, Several Mac and Linux boxes connected.
More into soldering than programming. Location:Hildesheim, Germany

Hi Dirk,

Thanks for the offer. But let's hold off, I think it's best for pbg4 to give it a try first, I have high confidence in pbg4 to produce a good patch.

First, Thanks for support.
Also, I want to clear things up. My expectations from pogo is to connecting audio DAC to it and stream music from wherever is possible.
But I wouldn't give up on pogo's original software, so I prefer not to touch mtd1 if possible.

This is what I did next:
fw_setenv mtdparts 'mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data)'

rebooted and now I can see mtd0-mtd3:
[root@alarm /]# fw_printenv mtdparts
mtdparts=mtdparts=orion_nand:1M(u-boot),4M(uImage),32M(rootfs),-(data)

I'm trying to follow flashing instruction on http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,12381.

[root@alarm /]# cat /etc/fw_env.config
# Configuration file for fw_(printenv/saveenv) utility.
# Up to two entries are valid, in this case the redundant
# environment sector is assumed present.
# Notice, that the "Number of sectors" is ignored on NOR.

# MTD device name Device offset Env. size Flash sector size Number of sectors
/dev/mtd0 0xc0000 0x20000 0x20000

[root@alarm /]# cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 00100000 00020000 "u-boot"
mtd1: 00400000 00020000 "uImage"
mtd2: 02000000 00020000 "rootfs"
mtd3: 05b00000 00020000 "data" # red digit is where it differs from your post

But you also stated that This assumes that your plug has been installed with Jeff's official installation script.
I didn't do that. Can I proceed with running Jeff's official install script with option --no boot check?
Can I presume that Jeff's script installs uboot and different environment variables in NAND?

Thanks again.

There is no need to do this intermediate step (this instruction was written before Arch u-boot was released).

Since you have latest Arch U-boot for Pogo E0, you can install my u-boot image and then flash the default u-boot envs following the installation instruction.

Jeff/davygravy u-boot, Arch u-boot, and my u-boot images all use the same location for u-boot envs. But the envs are defined differently.

So basically you need to perform every step in the installation instruction.
