Updated 02 Nov 2014:

Rootfs Debian-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2 was uploaded. This rootfs is to keep in sync with kernel Linux-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.

Basic minimal Debian Oxnas rootfs for Popo Pro/Classic V3 plug:

- tarball size: 83M
- install size: 251M
- a basic wheezy rootfs
- Installed packages: nano, avahi, ntp, busybox-syslogd (log to RAM), htop, dialog, bz2.
- see LED controls in /etc/rc.local, and /etc/rc0.d/K08halt
- see some useful aliases in /root/.profile
- root password: root

Download at Dropbox:

Debian-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2
md5:
c8e9df471f331c56befc4051a754bfea

And remember to check the hash of what you download, as always.


INSTALLATION:

Installation can be done on any Linux box, with a fresh USB drive (SD card or HDD would work fine too). It is assuming the USB drive is mounted at /media/sdb1.

1. Format a new Ext3 USB drive, and label it rootfs. Note: if your existing uBoot env for rootfs type is ext2, then you might want to keep it consistent and use Ext2 USB drive. It will work with Ext3 drive without problem, though.

For example:
set_bootargs_usb=setenv bootargs console=$console root=$usb_root rootdelay=$rootdelay rootfstype=$rootfstype $mtdparts
rootfstype=ext2

2. Mount the drive on a Linux box. As root user, cd to top level directory and extract it.
cd /media/sdb1
tar -xjf Debian-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1-rootfs-bodhi.tar.bz2

3. edit /media/sdb1/etc/fstab entry for /dev/root to match the rootfstype of your usb_rootfstype (however, you can keep it as Ext2 without problem in booting an Ext3 partition).
/dev/root / ext2 noatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1

4. Create uImage with embbeded DTB to run with older u-boot. Please see Note 2 below if you are running this kernel witht the new U-Boot.

Pogo Pro vs. Pogo Classic: If you're installing this on a Pogo V3 Classic (no PCI), replace the ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb below with ox820-pogoplug-classic.dtb.

cd /media/sdb1/boot
cp -a zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1 zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.fdt
cat dts/ox820-pogoplug-pro.dtb >> zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.fdt
mkimage -A arm -O linux -C none -T kernel -a 0x60008000 -e 0x60008000 -n 'Linux-3.3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1' -d zImage-3.17.0-oxnas-tld-1.fdt uImage
sync

5. Done. Take this USB rootfs to your plug and cold start.

Note1: After logging in this rootf the first time, remember to generate new SSH key to make it your own unique rootfs. And also update your rootfs to get the latest Debian package updates:
rm /etc/ssh/ssh_host*
ssh-keygen -A

apt-get update
apt-get upgrade

Note2: To simplify the first time installation process, the uImage is recreated with the DTB embedded in step 4. If you are familiar with FDT kernel booting, and want to boot with separate DTB, see the Kernel 3.17 installation section A.6 in this thread for instruction about setting up u-boot envs. Or if you are going run this kernel with the new u-boot as mentioned, then do set up booting as described in section A.6.


Note3: if the Linux box that you are using to create rootfs does not already have mkimage installed then install u-boot-tools package to make it available:
apt-get install u-boot-tools

Note4: For setting up wireless on the Pogo Pro, please see: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,16044,20964#msg-20964

dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 08000000 00020000 "NAND 128MiB 3,3V 8-bit"
mtd1: 00e00000 00020000 "boot"
mtd2: 07200000 00020000 "rootfs"

This is different from the instruction (mtd0 -> boot, mtd1 -> data). can I proceed?

So the bottom line is if you have only one rootfs in a single Ext3 partition, which is labeled as rootfs, then you're all set.
