Bootloader tips and tricks
Re: I done messed up! Lost uboot partition. - 3 months ago
You have kwboot already, no jtag is needed. I grabbed a used Goflex home online sometime ago, first removed the HD, then inserted a usb root file system, kwboot it with a raspberry pi zero (added usb hub, wireless network adapter), I used Rpi 0's /dev/ttyAMA0 (saved one usb-serial adapter). In debian, I flashed the uboot of goflex home. BTW, I used Raspbian Stretch, and kwboot wasby daviddyer - uBoot
Re: PogoPlug E02 install to NAND - 4 months ago
I tried that on dockstar. (USB flash drive for debian / cups / airprint + wireless usb card , for my HP 1022 printer) VERY slow air print speed... so I changed to Rpi zero, then changed to rpi 0w when 0w was out.by daviddyer - Debian
Re: PogoPlug E02 install to NAND - 4 months ago
Rpi0w is the best choice for airprint server. I have one at home.by daviddyer - Debian
Re: PogoPlug E02 install to NAND - 4 months ago
NAND is not big enough for modern debian. Try openwrt and use it as a backup / rescue system. thread here: https://forum.doozan.com/read.php?4,86219by daviddyer - Debian

Re: Verbatim MediaShare 47490 - 4 months ago
Try kwboot with your mtd0 image. ./kwboot -t -B 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0 -b verbatim_mtd0.img -p If it can work, at least we can confirm we have an easy way to recover the box if we accidentally do something wrong.by daviddyer - Debian
Re: Verbatim MediaShare 47490 - 4 months ago
That's why you should try kwboot first. If you can kwboot it, you don't need to worry about brick.by daviddyer - Debian

pogo e02 has no sata， I guess stora's dtb should be better.by daviddyer - Debian
Re: Verbatim MediaShare 47490 - 4 months ago
Looks great. Maybe you can try to kwboot with stora's uboot. Bodhi's modern uboot is much better than stock one.by daviddyer - Debian

Add sound to the dumb linux boxes so it can do alarm, etc... - 5 months ago
Yesterday, I ordered a usb sound card at newegg for $1.80 shipped. It was RCAC-17001. Newegg changed the price to $29.99 today, but it is easy to find a cheap replacement on eBay, such as item 193156653105. I guess they were from the same factory. :P I got one of these long time ago from newegg for free after rebate. Just added it to my dockstar so this dumb box can have sound. :P Here areby daviddyer - Debian

You have eth only. Don't add eth1. ethaddr is already set. undefine eth1 CE:> setenv eth1addr ----------------- Make sure your tftp server is on, the files are in the correct place, make sure your serverip is the tftp server's addressby daviddyer - uBoot

Re: Pogo V3 Pro internal Dual SD Card (USB 2.0) using mPCIe slot - 5 months ago
Since your system is on SD card and your system has been running for so long, I guess your SD card is corrupt already. When I ran debian on my dockstar / kingston 1GB flash drive, the usb flash drive could last for about one year...Since I played with Raspberry pi since 2015(?), I had about 5 or 6 corrupt micro SD cards. Last time when I had similar error on my dockstar / kingston flash drive,by daviddyer - uBoot

Re: HP Laserjet 1018 ppd - 6 months ago
And this is the PPD file from foo2zjs folder looks like the same file. :P same md5 when unzippedby daviddyer - Off-Topic
Re: HP Laserjet 1018 ppd - 6 months ago
Found it on my Rpi printer server at /usr/share/cups/model/HP_Laserjet-1018.ppd.gz I don't know if this is what you need. In my experience with HP 1022, foo2zjs driver for HP 1022 works better than HP's driver. If I scan a picture then pipe print to the HP 1022 printer, HP's driver sometimes won't work, but foo2zjs always works.by daviddyer - Off-Topic
Re: Old GoFlex Net new... never started... but pogoplug is dead.. - 9 months ago
You can create the root file system disk on ANY linux / unix computers, eg, raspberry pi with raspbian, Intel / AMD computer systems with Linux live CD / live USB, etc You don't need to create uEnv.txt, that file is not required to boot the system... That file can be used to save a Env-messed-up box or test some environment variables.by daviddyer - Debian
