bodhi, OK, I removed the preboot=run safeboot and I changed the usb_device and ide_device variables to be simply just boot_device. As you have noted, this only accounts for a single device being attached at boot time. I take it then that the scan disk routine you mention would be able to handle a multi-disk scenario and properly assign the device number based on the results of the scan. Iby LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

bodhi, Is there anyway to remove the ethaddr setting from uboot.2014.07-tld-2.environment.bodhi? The reason I ask, last night I flashed an E02 to the latest uboot and after I rebooted it had the ethaddr from the environment file and not my true MAC ID. I tried fw_setenv ethaddr 'xx:xx:xx:xx:xx'' (acutal values not shown) and it gave me an error something "configuration caby LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

Not interested myself but for those that are. Could you clarify the description of "bricked"? That can mean alot of things so if you could clarify what steps you have tried to resurrect them it would be helpful.by LeggoMyEggo - Debian
I loaded the latest u-boot and created uEnv.txt in /boot and IT WORKED ! :) Here is what I put in uEnv.txt for a sample.

Let me give my voite for a Sandisk Ultra-Fit USB 3.0 drive (http://www.sandisk.com/products/usb/drives/ultra-fit3/). Works well with Kirkwood and Oxanas platforms.

If anyone is so inclined, I was able to get Asterisk 11.16.0 with chan_dongle and FreePBX 2.11 compiled and loaded on my Pro running bodhi's 3.18.5 kernel. The only struggle I had was the compiler kept crapping out trying to make chan_sip.so.

On 3.18.5 on my PP Pro I was having trouble getting Mysql 5.5 to start after loading it from apt-get. Turns out that it wouldn't start correctly because there was not enough RAM available - at least in Mysql's eyes. As soon as I created a 256MB swap file and turned it on, mysql would function normally.by LeggoMyEggo - Debian

My Pogoplug E-01 (the original PP, looks like a SheevaPlug) has a reset hole. It's not like pushing it restores it to stock magically. All is does is power cycle the plug. My view on it, if you are doing anything half hackish on a PP then that reset button isn't gonna do much for you anyway - if it's bricked your gonna have to fix it with serial console.by LeggoMyEggo - Off-Topic
