I kept on tinkering while you answered my last message. I finally managed to get it up and running as I wanted. This is how I did it: I booted up with the card that does boot, inserted in the integrated SDCard slot, once it booted up, I inserted the new card (the one I want with 2 partitions) in the USB SDCard reader and connected it to the upper back USB port I used "parted"by orbezo - Debian
Hi Bodhi I'm tinkering with my device with the sole purpose of understanding a little more about it. Now that I managed to make it boot from a 64GB MicroSD card inserted directly in the device's SD slot (through a microSD-SD adapter) I'm now trying to make it boot from an identical microSD card but now formatted with 2 primary ext4 partitions ("rootfs" is almost 18Gby orbezo - Debian
Hi bodhi, Wishing you had a great 2023 and you have an even better 2024 I have to apologize for not thanking you enough more than 3 years ago when you helped me get my Pogo V4 up and running. The device has been working great since then, and these last days (vacation time) I decided to start tweaking it once again. I just managed to make it boot from its embedded SDcard slot just as you toldby orbezo - Debian
I'm sorry, should had thought about that.

In fact, my thumbdrive was an SDCard reader with the card I want to use inserted... I turned off the Pogoplug, inserted the card in the Pogoplug's reader and it didn't boot. :-(by orbezo - Debian
Seems to be working great, I just have one question left: Is there a way to make it boot from an SD card instead of a USB thumb drive? Thanks.

For a long time now, I've been using a Pogoplug v4 with an 80GB HDD as boot drive and a 2TB drive as a personal NAS (ArchLinux). Since like a year ago, I couldn't update ArchLinux anymore and I didn't give myself the time to see why (and try to fix it) as my NAS was always available. A couple of weeks ago I decided to upgrade my 2TB drive with a 4TB one, and before I swapped it Iby orbezo - Debian
