PogoPlug v4 Soft Brick Recovery / Restoring MTDs October 11, 2019 08:04PM |
Registered: 5 years ago Posts: 2 |
I (naturally) messed up my PogoPlug by not reading carefully enough when flashing and by also not keeping a better record or any kind of backup of what I had / hadn't done to it over the course of messing with it. The short version is that I used one of the earliest versions of bodhi's guide to convert it to Debian years ago, briefly used it for something that now eludes my memory, lost it in the back of a closet for a while, recently rediscovered it and would like to use it as a network ad blocker via PiHole. When I went to update everything to the latest versions of bodhi's uBoot and Debian image, I obviously did something wrong, though I'm not sure what. I suspect that I've managed to mess up the envvars, but again I'm not 100% sure. Typically when I get myself into situations like this, I'll wipe everything back to the way it was when I started (back to known-good) and simply try again. In this instance, 1) I'm not sure that's the best solution, and 2) not sure how to go about doing it if it is. I did try to grab bodhi's MTDs archive from here, but it looks like the link is dead. Reading through the thread, it seemed like the better option to simply send bodhi a message rather than continue to possibly make things worse by messing with it on my own. I guess the pertinent details of my specific issue are: [*] My PogoPlug v4 will no longer boot correctly, or identify itself to the network [*] I do still have serial console access though, and can in fact interrupt the boot process and get to the "PogoPlug v4>" prompt [*] When all is said and done, I'd ideally like to have your latest uBoot and Debian Buster image be the only things on the Plug and running smoothly So if I've not already taken up too much of your time, and if it's not asking too much, what do I do?

4. Create uImage with embedded DTB for booting with older u-boots (2012 or earlier). Skip this step if you have installed the latest U-Boot for Kirkwood (or are installing this u-boot at the same time).
