Goflex net bad blocks and no boot.

Hi,

Please help.
After install new uboot (2014.07) and rootfs my Goflex net "bricked".

With Serial Jtag I see I have bad blocks on flash.
I realized it during uboot install, but because my nandwrite not reported errors, I disregard it.

Serial consol shows this:
[ 21.935908] Scanning device for bad blocks
[ 22.103884] Bad eraseblock 1534 at 0x00000bfc0000

My problem is not able to boot Goflex net from USB or SATA.

I attached serial console log.
And copy here too:

Thanks for any help.
Robert

Robert,

The problem is not the bad block. It is way out in higher NAND, not in mtd0 where u-boot is. This is the problem with mounting rootfs.

Interrupt serial console at the count down and

printenv

Please post this u-boot envs listing here.

Can you tell why "every second " boot says

host 192.168.178.26 is alive
and sometimes it say not alive?

Because you turned on setconsole (if_netconsole is the ping before netconsole start running)

preboot=run if_netconsole start_netconsole

Since you have serial console, there is no need for this, so you can temporarily turn it off (in case you want to use it in the future):

setenv preboot_nc 'run if_netconsole start_netconsole'
setenv preboot

Rootfs mounting problem: make sure your usb drive is formatted as Ext3, because

rootfstype=ext3

If the above did not help in booting, try 2nd approach: just remove the rootfstype (since you are running kernel 3.16, it will figure out the fs type).

In serial console:

setenv rootfstype

The next approach is to use a partition label for rootfs in booting. But try the above first, most of the time problem is with the rootfs type mismatch.

Hi Bodhi,

Thank you Thank you!!! :)

Problem was usb was ext2.
issuing this command:

tune2fs -j /dev/sdc1

resolve the problem, and convert to ext3


It is booted now from USB and Sata too! :) Thank you!

I try to resolve netconsole trouble, but, how to get setenv command?

root@debian:~# setenv
-bash: setenv: command not found

Dont you think
fw_setenv ??

Robert

When all the way into Debian, the command is fw_setenv.

When in Uboot after interrupting the countdown timer, the command is setenv.

Thank you Frederick!

Its clear now!
