Restore nand
January 16, 2011 06:00AM
I've hosed my boot parameters. I can get to the Marvell prompt but thats it. It seems to have erased all the variables in all bootcmd. I only get "undefined". Its a pink pogoplug. Trying to get jeff's debian install up and running. Though I thought I had it running but lost it all after rebooting. Yes I have tried several reboots, with and without the usb stick. Guess the only lucky part is I can still access via netconsole. Any help would be appreciated.

The default variable settings are available here. You may be able to copy and paste them into your netconsole session to restore the defaults. Be careful not to overwrite the 'console' variable or anything else you used to configure netconsole.

Thank you Jeff,
I got it restored. Still having trouble getting squeeze to reliably load though. I have tried several different sticks. Seems to be the problem with each, which I find strange.

Hi Jeff and wcr3d,
I tried to install Linux in NAND by following
http://plugapps.com/index.php5/Install_Plugbox_Linux_with_kernel_in_NAND_memory
Install Plugbox Linux with kernel in NAND memory
But somehow I got stuck and I can only access Marvell prompt. Is UBIT uboot same as regular uboot? If it's true can I copy and past all the default settings and recover back to the original PogoPlug system and reinstall the Linux?

Thanks!

No, its not the same. Here is a link to plugapp wiki, maybe that will help.

Yes, you can flash back to the original nand and start fresh. Infact if you used jeff's guideline it has you backup the original first. You can use that or here he links to the factory nand settings to flash back to.
