Hi feas, The Pogo E02 is still a good server. In a classroom setting, the kids will not access it too heavily. Wish I had started the Dreamplug project sooner! I could give you one, but I need to get it working running Debian first (u-boot is also doable later). The Dreamplug has eSATA so it's a future proof kind of planning. What's the time frame on this project?by bodhi - Off-Topic

Eda, I'm now quite positive that this Alaska 88E1512 chip supports WOL natively. I can't say with 100% certainty until we have set it up correctly, though. Update: I think I might need more settings in the DTS.by bodhi - Debian

I'm going to gradually fill in some info here in this post as you try. 1. With stock u-boot, the USB drive needs to be power up manually in serial console so it can load the kernel (later we will add this to the boot commands to make it permanent): mw.l f1010100 1361c000 usb reset 2.

Edda, That make me wonder, too! why they did not advertise the feature. Currently, the real problem is I can't keep the ethernet powered when using GPIO 20 for power off (it cut off all power). Once we can solve that, then we will know for sure if it supports WOL.by bodhi - Debian
