U-Boot w/ MMC/SD-card booting for Pogoplug Series 4
August 25, 2021 03:33PM
Hello all.

I have succesfully installed U-boot on a Pogoplug Series v4 device and I am getting a strange behaviour.

I have installed the rootfs in a SD card but if I boot the Pogo unit with the SD card inserted, then the boot fails (no USB or other boot device is connected at the time I boot the device).

If I boot the Pogo without the SD card inserted, wait a few seconds, and when the led turns on blinking green I insert back the SD card then it boots flawlessly. Actually, I can perform reboots and the device keeps working correctly.

The problem I have is when a power outage pops up in the neighbourhood. The Pogo unit cannot get up again if I don't manually remove the SD card, which can be annoying when I am out.

I have tried playing with the uEnv.txt file but without success. Any clue will be appreciated.

Thanks!

jvegap,

Your envs are a mess :) They are a mix of old envs, I guess from previous installation, and the new envs for the latest u-boot (2017.07-tld-1).

And the reason booting with uEnv.txt did not work is because the bootcmd_uenv was set incorrectly: 
bootcmd_uenv=run uenv_load

So login to Debian and correct that (I added a "sleep 3" to the original command to slow it down a bit) 

fw_setenv bootcmd_uenv 'run uenv_load; if test $uenv_loaded -eq 1; then run uenv_import; fi; sleep 3'

====

And the reason for the odd behavior is probably becasue the SD slot or you SD card is slow powering up.

Thanks a lot for the advice. I was wondering if the problem is on the SD power then the uEnv.txt would not be read and so the problem would persist.

May a change from 
bootdelay=5
to 
bootdelay=10
fix the issue of a SD slow power up?

I want to be 100% sure of the changes so I don't break the firmware environment.

jvegap,

Sounds like you don't have serial console connected? It would be much easier to troubleshoot if you did. Or if you have set up netconsole like I recommended in the installation instruction.

Most likely it wont help. But it does not hurt to set it to a longer bootdelay of 10 or 20 sconds.

Which model do you have, the V4 or Mobile? Pogo Mobile does not have the SATA slot on top. The V4 has SATA slot exposed when you open to top lid. The reason I ask is the V4 comes with a high amp power supply. The Mobile I think it comes with a 1.5A power supply.

I have the Pogoplug v4 which is the one supposed to be a good power source.

It is kind strange as the boot sequence is almost the same. I cannot explain why it fails the first time it is booted.

Indeed. It is subtle. Your envs are still not correct.

The best way to trouble shoot this: Power on, interrupt netconsole at count down, and 

printenv
boot
and please post the log here.

From your description of inserting the SD card after the unit is powered on causing the card to be recognized it sounds like you may have an issue with the SD card detection mechanism. Perhaps some obstruction which causes an intermittent short.

It looks like the variables are still a mess... I will upgrade U-Boot 2016.05 to latest and fix my environment variables in order to discard them as a source os problems.

Re: U-Boot w/ MMC/SD-card booting for Pogoplug Series 4
August 28, 2021 08:10AM
After the U-Boot 2018.07 update and envs cleaning the behaviour is still the same. The extra piece of debug is that if I did the first power up with the SD card inserted, if I keep commading 'boot' in the netconsole prompt, the scan keeps posting 'mmc_init: -95, time 11'. I mandatorily need to plug the SD after the power up. Besides, I have change the SD card to check if it was an issue of the SD card itself and I got the same behaviour. 

 (first power up with SD card inserted)

jvegap,

It seems u-boot does not like this card. Is it a microSD inside an adapter?

Try this.

Power up, interrupt netconsole at count down and 

mmc rescan
If you see errors, try mmc rescan again a few times.

And if you have another SD card (preferably Sandisk brand), try using that.

Thanks a lot. I will try that. Indeed, it is an Sandisk 16Gb full SD card Class I 80 Mb speed.
Your instructions and software are great. At this point I'm pretty sure it is a hardware issue either on the SD or on the Pogoplug device itself.
Thanks a lot for the support and your great kernel compilations.

Dera bodhi and rayknight.

It was the SD card itself.

Although it was a regular Sandisk SD 16 Gb card, I have replaced it by a regular Trascend SD 16 Gb and now it boots up like a charm.

Thanks a lot for the support given!!
