OK - to specify the mount points, I will then use the "noauto" option in the fstab and add mount -a as the last statement of the /etc/rc.local I am using ext4 for all drives - so I assume this should also work. I abandoned ext2 early on because exactly of these reasons. The reason why this happens is that I am shutting down the pogoplug in the evenings remotely and, when "by rkrug - Debian
Hm - I think there might be another problem. I have only for /dev/root pass set to one - the others are 0. I could mount with mount -a, but the file system had errors. Would therse errors have prevented the boot?by rkrug - Debian
Hi I use a pogoplug as a Logitech Media Server and as a TimeCapsule (for TImeMachine backups from a Mac) and it works nicely. I just have one problem: after a dirty shutdown, in case that the external hdd becomes corrupted, the fixing might take quite some time. To have the LMS available immediately after a reboot, I would like to delay the mounting of the external hdd untill the system isby rkrug - Debian
ext 3 for rootfs and the others ext4. Got it running again - will see how it goes. Thanks, Rainerby rkrug - Debian
The second time it did not work... Any suggestions?by rkrug - Debian
OK - I found FSCKFIX=yes - and it seems to be working. Is this a feasible approach on a pogoplug?by rkrug - Debian
Hi After a dirty shutdown, rootfs did not mount properly and my pogoplug did not boot - I had to put the flash drive into a Linux computer and do a file system check. Under e.g. Ubuntu, this is done automatically when the drive does not boot - is this possible here as well? Rainerby rkrug - Debian
I ended up using usbmount for all partitions to mount as read-only and adding the partitions I would like to have as read-write in the fstab - usbmount now automounts these as read-write to the specified mount point - perfect. Thanks, Rainerby rkrug - Debian
Thanks. I will be using usbmount for the time being and use some shell-scripting magic to manage the mounting of special drives. Thanks, Rainerby rkrug - Debian
Hi I want to automount external usb hdd and usb sticks on my pogoplug running Debian (Debian GNU/Linux 7 (wheezy)) using the following rules - mount certain external USB drives (identified by UUID or label) to individuall specific folders read-only - mount all other esternal USB drives into a directory /media/external/LABEL as *read-only* Then share the folder /media/external/ using neby rkrug - Debian
Thant makes sense. I have set the disk label, but not yet set fw_setenv usb_init "usb start; setenv usb_root LABEL=rootfs" But one question before: can I then still boot from the internal insallation, when nothing is conected? Rainerby rkrug - uBoot
I have a wheezy installation on an external hdd which I want to use on a pink pogoplug. I labeled the rootpartition rootfs, and now would like to boot from this partition even if the other usb hdd are attached. I don't think they contain bootable structures / files.

Hi I installed the rescue system from http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?4,3896 and uboot as well as netconsole from http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,14 and I get quite a few error messages when booting the pogoplug without usb attached, and some seem to indicate that the pogoplug thinks that there are USB devices attached: U-Boot 2011.12 (Feb 20 2012 - 21:21:59) Pogoplugby rkrug - Rescue System
I simply re-installed the rescue system - working now. Just a follow up: I assume I should change the password? Is there anything to consider in choosing the password? Minimal length? Thanks, Rainerby rkrug - Rescue System
Thanks. I booted into the rootfs and logged in. Which one is the rescue fs which I have to moun now? There are more then 120 under /dev/ and even under /dev/disk/bu-uuid I only get the rootfs? Rainerby rkrug - Rescue System
Hi one could say "Huston, we've got a problem..." I installed the rescue system (http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?4,7915,7915) on a pogoplug (pink one) and I could boot in it without problems. Then I changed the password and tried to install Wheezy.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I get the following: 1) after the chroot, the tmp is empty, presumibly because /tmp/debian is set as root.

Hi I have the same problem, but my understanding of pogoplug, uboot and how to install on them seems to be more limited. So. I am that far: 1) I have a pogoplug E02 (the pink one...) 2) I have installed the newest uboot, and also reset the environment from http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh 3) I installed debian squeeze from dockstar.debian-squeeze.sh This compleby rkrug - Debian
