Re: GoFlexNet not getting IP - 10 years ago

@Neptune, I think the reason it did not boot was because you running an older version of U-Boot: U-Boot 2010.09 (Feb 16 2011 - 18:42:02) UBIT v0.6 by Jeff Doozan and Peter Carmichael And your Arch rootfs has kernel 3.14: Image Name: Linux-3.14.4-1-ARCH Image Type: ARM Linux Kernel Image (uncompressed) Data Size: 3965072 Bytes = 3.8 MiB This U-Boot is too old for your

I'm afraid it sounds like you've messed up your NAND mtd0 where u-boot is. The Pogo E02 does not have UART booting, AFAIK. The only way to recover is JTAG. On the very slim chance that somehow your Pogo E02

agiorgio, Quote> I decided to upgrade this pogoplug to Debian Wheezy Did you follow a procedure, instruction …? which u-boot is currently on your Pogo? if not, which system were you running before, and what exactly did you do before seeing CRC error with fw_printenv? There is not enough information, so a wrong advice could mess up your u-boot envs and brick your box!

@varkey, Yes it does! bootcmd is set up to boot USB, SD, SATA in that order. So if you plug in only SATA it will boot SATA.

The CRC error usually indicates that the envs area in NAND has not been saved, therefore has no checksum.

You can repartition anyway you'd like if you don't care to run stock FW. And after you've installed new U-Boot, always keep the first partition (mtd0) untouched. The rest of NAND can be anyway you'd like, and

Re: UART Booting HowTo for Selected Kirkwood Devices - 10 years ago

grayman4hire, You should try my latest u-boot Pogo V4 build. ./kwboot-tool/kwboot -t -B 115200 /dev/ttyUSB0 -b uboot.2014.07-tld-1.pogo_v4.mtd0.kwb -p And here is how you boot the Pogo Mobile (it is different from other Kirkwood boxes, a little bit flaky): - Start kwboot on a different Linux box using the above command. - Power up the Pogo V4/Mobile. - Within 1-2 seconds when the spi

@shv, I do have both ethaddr and /etc/network/interfaces set to the same value. No problem on kernel 3.15.3. And it is the same rootfs that I have since squeeze. I think if you look at serial console output closely, it might give out some hints.

@shv, Nice works! interesting to see the hard numbers. Have you tried Ext2 to see if read performance is back to normal? @ingmar_k, QuoteStill very interesting to see that the old kernel performs best, when it comes to SATA.. Indeed! I'm wondering could the OXNAS SATA driver be improved somehow.

@shv, I did not want to commit to GitHub before testing. I'm having problem booting with the SATA spl. It did not get loaded by ROM during powered up. I don't know if my eSata enclosure is the culprit or not (I don't have a 22 pin-eSATA+power cable to try a direct connect right now). Here attached is the updated board/ox820/ox820.c file. You could try to rebuild with it. If y

@shv, I found an inconsistency between NAND and FAT compilation options. That was why the LED flashing code that I've added compiled for NAND but not for FAT. U-Boot has built OK now. Would you like to test it?
