No idea what happened. My Pogo E02 running Debian Wheezy on a USB attached SSD boots just far enough to be pingable, but no ssh access. I took the drive to another machine and ran a fsck. It was clean. Any ideas what to try next? Thanks.by Frederick Grayson - Debian
I am listening for netconsole on a Windows 7 box so serverip=192.168.1.50 in both plugs, and the Windows box has only that single IP address.by Frederick Grayson - uBoot
Maybe there is some kind of race condition where the normal boot happens before netconsole can get going?by Frederick Grayson - uBoot
All the pogoplugs and my workstation are plugged into the same switch. The switch uplinks to the router, thus the router isn't even involved in machine to machine communication. Rebooting my switch does allow netconsole output, but only for one boot. Interesting. And I was unable to repeat this. I powered everything down and tried again, but no joy. Let me ask this.

Well, I spoke too soon. Netconsole output no longer comes from either of my pogo E02s, but does from my pogo v4. I surrender. I will be installing serial ports to the E02s and be done with it. Thanks for the help along the way.by Frederick Grayson - uBoot
Nevermind. I put things back the way they were and the problem seems to have corrected itself. I sure wish I knew what was wrong.by Frederick Grayson - uBoot
Doesn't seem to make a dfference. nc -lu 6666 on my CentOS Linux box doesn't see it either. It would be nice if a network broadcast IP address could be used for serverip. That way any nc running anywhere on the network could be used without having to change serverip.by Frederick Grayson - uBoot
I'd rather not upgrade it unless it was really needed. I received my second new E02 today. I ran http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh on it and configured it for netconsole just like the other E02. The new E02 does show netconsole output, but not every time it is booted. Here is the output when It does work: Y:\Downloads\FTP http\NetCat for Windows\nc111nt_rodneybeedeby Frederick Grayson - uBoot
I guess I'll have to wait for the serial cable parts I ordered. I'm glad I don't need the capability right now, I'm just curious. Hopefully the PL2303HX chip won't be a counterfeit :)by Frederick Grayson - uBoot
I booted the plug and logged in. 192.168.1.50 is pingable and replies are seen. /etc/resolv.config had a domain reference in it which I removed and I changed the nameserver to 8.8.8.8 Still no netconsole output :( Is there any reason to upgrade to the new Uboot? Any thoughts as to why the V4 plug netconsole works in my network environment and the E02 doesn't? Thanks for youby Frederick Grayson - uBoot
