Copy 'n' paste requires a GUi. There is none installed on my Pi. Additionally, I'm trying to capture the output with tee, but both the console window and the log file remain empty.. Give me a moment to ssh in from my laptop...by aaronouthier - uBoot
Hmmm. Ok, is there a separate log file somewhere, or do you mean the console output from the command?by aaronouthier - uBoot
Well, my media server is setup and configured. I'd still like to get this GoFlex NET up and running. I have used kwboot multiple times, but the console is always dead afterword. Gunna need to double-check that the uboot file is intact (yes, I know how). Is there any other reason the box might not boot after running kwboot?

Yup, It's kind of an old iMac, an it's a bit of overkill. If it ain't broke, then why fix it? Everything is configured now, as far as I am able to go. Now, I just need to wait until my ISP is doing TV service installs again... C'est le vie!by aaronouthier - uBoot
I'm sure it is a great machine, but my iMac is a core i3 @ 3.2 GHz, with a 1TB HDD, and 8 GB RAM. (I added 4 of the 8 GB after a friend gave it to me). I'm installing Ubuntu now. I'll keep it in mind for future projects. This is going to be a Media server with Live TV streaming from a TV Tuner - 2 GB RAM probably won't cut it.

Perhaps,, but I just remembered I have a 2009 iMac here that I was going to try to sell. It might fit the bill. Going to look for an Ubuntu install USB drive in my stuff.by aaronouthier - uBoot
Ok, so I've been asking questions on the Emby forums. The more I look into it, the more I realize this particular setup is a bad idea. I'm going to have to build a Mini PC.by aaronouthier - uBoot

D'oh! Well, I may end up moving my project to my parent's home anyway. They're nearby, and I can't get the TV service I want until the Pandemic is over, which may be a while more. Basically, my Internet provider has halted new TV installs until that time, since new installs require a Technician to enter the premises, and they aren't allowing that currently.

Hmm, I didn't think to check if the net has more RAM than the home. I just figured, newer product so higher specs. Go figure. I already noticed the effects of trying to do this on the GoFlex Home. Dang! So the GoFlex isn't any better. Would my old Stora MS2110 be any better?

I'm starting to think the problem isn't with kwboot directly, but rather with it being dynamically linked to 32-bit libraries. Those libraries are probably not present on my ARM64 OS. Just a theory right now.by aaronouthier - uBoot
The kwboot for ARM doesn't run for some strange reason. This time, I downloaded the version linked in the first sticky. aaron@emby-server: ~./kwboot -bash: ./kwboot: No such file or directory aaron@emby-server: ~file ./kwboot ./kwboot: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, ARM, EABI5 version 1 (SYSV), dynamically linked, interpreter /lib/ld-linux.so.3, for GNU/Linux 2.6.32, BuildID=6932d3fc63dbby aaronouthier - uBoot

I wondered about data errors as well. I am using a USB-TTL adapter from eBay. It's makes it more convenient to be able to go from a Raspberry Pi to a laptop, etc., without moving wires. I think I'm going to try taking the USB device out of the loop in this case, however. My Pi has the right connections. I'll try that. The only thing that puzzles me, is that I had a serial consolby aaronouthier - uBoot

Hmm, seems to be working much better with the supplied version of kwboot. I didn't realize sending a 512k file would take so darned long!! I think my 500/500 mbps Internet connection has me spoiled? Naaaaa!by aaronouthier - uBoot
Hmm, I should know by now - It's always good to check other posts before posting! It appears that kwboot should still work. However, it does not.

Well... I dusted-off my Goflex Home about a month ago. Got everything up and running via a USB drive. It is currently booted via USB running Debian. It didn't have enough RAM to run OMV very well, so I bought a Goflex Net. I was trying to get uboot updated via TFTP.
