Re: Replace Ubit v0.5 with Uboot and a good kernel for GoFlex Net - 10 years ago
enki, With the GoFlex Net, it is pretty safe to mess with uBoot, because you have UART booting: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,7852,7852 What I would do is: 1. Try to run the Squeeze installation again (see http://projects.doozan.com/debian/) and see if it will flash uBoot for you from the script. If it does, then you can use the new Squeeze rootfs, or your exiting rootfs to try booby bodhi - uBoot
Re: Serial Port connector - what are people using to make it work? - 10 years ago
Hi restamp, The 3V+ should not be connected (the serial module converter uses power from USB). About the direct connection, I had the same thought, but I've found that the connectors on the wires were too big for the Pogo serial pins! I thought there must be a smaller connector out there that we can crimp on the 3 wires so that the header is not necessary, but so far I could not findby bodhi - Off-Topic

Re: Dell Backup Plus portable 1TB not detected on PogoPlug Mobile under Debian Squeeze/Wheezy but working from u-boot - 10 years ago
I don't think the serial wires would cause this type of problem. You've bought it from somebody? perhaps the USB port has problem. Does it work with a thumb drive?by bodhi - Debian
Re: Linux Kernel 3.9.11 Kirkwood package and rootfs (Non Flattened Device Tree) - 10 years ago
Hi Goetz, The tarball has everything you need (the patch file, config file, kernel deb package, kernel headers). So you can get the 3.9.11 source from the kernel source tree and apply the patch to it.by bodhi - Debian
Re: Zyxel NSA320 : basic support for Debian installation - 10 years ago
Here is my cleaned up log when I did the flash around the bad block (the 2nd time to update uBoot). I have one bad block. The uBoot image was built by Davygravy. And by the way, restamp gave me the guidance way back when I did this the first time! and I updated this Pogo E02 the 2nd time with the new uBoot the same way we did before. Thanks again restamp!

Re: Zyxel NSA320 : basic support for Debian installation - 10 years ago
mindm49907, Since you got 2 bad blocks in the middle of uBoot image, you will need to verify them to see if it was flashed OK. I did the same thing a while back. Let me see if I can get my old log out and work out the steps for you, perhaps tomorrow :) once you've verified a good flash around the bad blocks, uBoot will be bootsstrapped OK.

Re: Zyxel NSA320 : basic support for Debian installation - 10 years ago
Hi Chessplayer, Probably because you need to set /sys/class/leds/xxx/trigger to the correct value at the end of /etc/rc.local to turn it green. It's in /etc/rc.local in my rootfs. AFAIK, the NSA320 patch should allow the HDD (ide) trigger to be set and the HDD LED will automatically flash whenever disk access occur. This works on Goflex Net.by bodhi - Debian
Re: Attempt to restore Pink Pogoplug e02 to factory corrupt uboot. Where to go from here? - 10 years ago
oakle470, You don't need to reflash uBoot again! it should be fine as it is. 1. The first thing to do is to get uBoot envs printed out: interrupt uBoot and post the output of printenv here: > printenv 2. Make sure the USB drive format matches usb_rootfstype, and it's labeled rootfs. 3. To ensure uBoot will find this rootfs, some uBoot envs need to be changed. But let&#by bodhi - uBoot

Re: distcc remote host deny client [SOLVED] - 10 years ago
It turned out to be a configuration problem with distcc. My hunch was this problem has to do with the IP mask (why IPv6?). After checking the ports on both server and client I noticed that on the remote box, distcc was listening on port 3632 with tcp6. On the compiling box, distcc was listening on port 3632 with tcp. netstat -an | grep 3632 tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:3632 0.0by bodhi - Debian
distcc remote host deny client [SOLVED] - 10 years ago
I'm setting up distcc and kept getting this denied by access list error. Could not fingure out why. The compiling host is 192.168.0.224, the remote host (volunteer) is 192.168.0.228. I've turned on debug in /etc/init.d/distcc and got these error info on 192.168.0.228: Remote host denied access log: distccd[26818] (dcc_check_client) connection from ::ffff:192.168.0.224:40342 diby bodhi - Debian

Re: Booting Debian on Pogoplug Pro - 10 years ago
There is no other way other than JTAG (i.e. hardware to get the console output). With this Pogo, you don't need to do any soldering. The JST header would be all you need to connect the wires out to serial converter module.by bodhi - uBoot
Re: Pogoplug E02 Debian won't boot after install - 10 years ago
You can try either: 1) - The quickest way to get it boot into Debian is to use this rootfs: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,12096 - Next, you can print out uBoot envs while in Debian and we can take a look to see if they are all OK. fw_printenv - Set up netconsole while in Debian (there is no file to be added, just environment variables, and using another PC to connect) http://forum.by bodhi - Debian

Re: Linux Kernel 3.9.11 Kirkwood package and rootfs (Non Flattened Device Tree) - 10 years ago
I've updated the first post to include the warning about flash-kernel. Thanks eas. Sorry I also forgot the md5 for the 3.9.11 rootfs :) it's included now.by bodhi - Debian
Re: Linux Kernel 3.9.11 Kirkwood package and rootfs (Non Flattened Device Tree) - 10 years ago
@eas, Yes. I thought about putting a warning in the first post, but forgot to do it. Sometimes, dpkg -i command executes flash-kernel and does not deal with the error successfully, so it messes up initrd.img, but not always. Normally, people don't install flash-kernel so never have this problem. I recall that it did not cause problem for me in before 3.1.x kernel, perhaps something has chby bodhi - Debian
Re: Attempt to restore Pink Pogoplug e02 to factory corrupt uboot. Where to go from here? - 10 years ago
Oakley, Arch package management commands are different. Pacman is package manager on Arch, apt or dpkg is Debian package manager. For installation purpose, that guide can not be used as is on Debian. So if you want to follow that guide, you will have to rework it to use Debian dialect. For example, pacman -Syu samba in Debian it is: apt-get install samba so on so forth. Hoby bodhi - uBoot
