Re: UART Booting HowTo for Selected Kirkwood Devices - 10 years ago
balbes150, It means that: - The Asus-NAS-M25 has UART booting capability, good news :) Now you can experimenting with flashing newer u-boot, knowing there is a rescue mechanism. - The Sheevaplug is the reference board, so it works with the ASUS. - To build newer u-boot for the ASUS, the Sheevaplug's u-boot can be used as a base. But changes might be needed to make it work correctlyby bodhi - uBoot

Joey, These are installation links that you might want to read (but not attempt right away, I'd expect you will have questions): 1.

Re: Linux Kernel 3.18 (FDT) and 3.16 (non-FDT) Kirkwood package and rootfs - 10 years ago
yhfudev, Unfortunately, AUFS is not in the mainline Linux kernel. So I can't add it without patching. Also, there are some inpact to the current kernel with other config options above (will alter the behavior).by bodhi - Debian

Re: 2013.10 U-Boot for Pogoplug V3 (OXNAS) - 10 years ago
@thebladerunner, You are running the new u-boot, but with the default envs from internal u-boot settings. You should have also flashed the default envs image (step 10) if you are going to run an FDT kernel/rootfs such as this rootfs. 10. Flash uboot environment to 0x00100000 (See caveat in step 2, do not flash this if the kernel is not FDT) So right now, to recover you can do either onby bodhi - uBoot

@laprjns, It's because codier has flashed new u-boot and new default envs images. The original settings for the old u-boot can be used as is with the new u-boot, but the new defaults envs can also be flashed to start anew. @codier, Replicate what you did for the 1st Dockstar. You can compare the the 1st Dockstar envs and the 2nd one. Recall you have to add the rescue envs setting bby bodhi - uBoot

Re: Best approach to automount usb drive? - 10 years ago
rkrug, - Simple approach: use usbmount (install the usbmount package). - More complicated approach (and more flexible and powerful): use udev rules. Also be aware that if you use a remote dekstop (xfce, lxde,...) then the automounting behavior is potentially different when you are in desktop.by bodhi - Debian

Re: Overprovisioning A Flash Drive ? - 10 years ago
I've heard that in Debian Sid, initramfs can do fsck.f2f2 mounted drives (I have not verified this). And there are a few bug fixes came in for 3.19, and more bug fixes for 3.20. So don't use it for your data drives yet. Also, using it for rootfs on remote administering devices seems unfeasible. Unless you have a rescue system installed in NAND.by bodhi - Debian

LeggoMyEggo, This update includes the config CONFIG_CFG80211_WEXT, that was omitted. A few people have reported this particular config missing that cause problem with the supplicant . I suspect that the problem also has something to do with the updated Realtek drivers in kernel 3.17+. Please try. I don't have the wifi card installed in my Pogo Pro currently so can't test it.

codier, scanning usb for storage devices... 0 Storage Device(s) found This means your USB was not detected. Try plug it in the port in the back, right next to the Ethernet port. Power up. OTOH, if you intended to boot rescue system without the USB attached, then your envs are not set up for that.by bodhi - uBoot
Re: Overprovisioning A Flash Drive ? - 10 years ago
@Don, - It is not swap related. fsck.f2fs simply does not like to fsck a mounted drive. So there is not much we can do other than turn off fsck for rootfs. - You can use uuid to mount rootfs. There should be no problem doing that. I think we will have to wait for future kernel version to the label to work.by bodhi - Debian

This comes into play only when you want to setup the envs for booting while inside a Linux shell. u-boot knows where the envs are, based on the the envs settings in thatby bodhi - Debian
