For anyone trying to get internal wifi to work with their Oxnas PP (Pro w/mPCIe), I just replaced the stock Realtek RT3090 card with an Atheros AR5B93 card and it loaded with the drivers built into 3.18.5. I also tried an Atheros AR5B225 and it worked without issue as well. Both use the Ath9k firmware / drivers and both are available for less than $5 off of eBay if you are willing to wait a cby LeggoMyEggo - Debian
Well my point was the more cookie cutter you make this the more risk there will be that the un-informed may brick their device because they don't know what they actually have. For the truly demented (in the techie sense) this is actually good - now they-ll spend countless hours trying to "un-brick" it and learn something in the meantime. But for people that have better things to dby LeggoMyEggo - Debian
The reason I said something, when you first start shopping for Pogoplugs it's so confusing. Take Amazon for example....how many different versions of the Pogoplug (in black or pink) are available in either Kirkwood or Oxnas platform? Is it a P22 (but shipped with an E02 motherboard) or is it a P-21 with an Oxnas MB? Both are exactly the same on the outside but the only way you know is byby LeggoMyEggo - Debian
I can see it coming............................ N00B Alert - This only works on Pogoplug E02's AND is only for a Kirkwood device. DO NOT TRY on a Oxnas based Pogoplug like Pro, Biz, V3, etc. ............I was once a N00B too :)by LeggoMyEggo - Debian

Double check your JTAG/serial connection.....wiggle it and make sure you truly have electrical connectivity. The reason I say something, I recently discovered the wires in the Soundblaster/CD cable that I was using for JTAG had split inside the insulation right on top of the connector. The cables are probably 20 years old now so it's no suprise but the only way I knew was when I accidentalby LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

Myself not the brightest bulb in the bunch what I have discovered recently, besides the obvious necessity and importance of having serial console, is when you are in the middle of trying to diagnose boot env issues, sometimes it's best to printenv then copy and paste them and then print them out on paper so that you can follow the logic and instruction sequencing.

Although I haven't tried it, based on an inspection of the back of the motherboard you would need a half-size version of a mini-PCI-e to SATA card like this: http://www.amazon.com/Bplus-PM1061-SATAIII-mini-PCIE-Adapter/dp/B00CF5Y8BK/ref=pd_cp_pc_1..

I have a question which a forum and Google search has not been able to answer. I loaded the latest Pogoplug E02 uboot on my Pogoplug-E01 which was the very first PP, its Kirkwood based and looks like a Sheevaplug but doesn't have a SD card or USB UART. The E02 uboot works fine but when I monitor uboot with serial console, it shows 256MB of RAM which is expected but shows 512MB of NAND whicby LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

Any idea why mysql-server 5.5 won't load correctly from the repository with 3.17? It gets installed but doesn't allow you to set a new password and then the restart fails after first load.

I have 3.17 running on a PP E02 and the RAM shows up as 128MB but information from the Arch Linux site and others says the E02 is supposed to have 256MB of RAM. Is this a limitation in the kernel or is 'free -h' giving incorrect info?by LeggoMyEggo - Debian

Thanks to Jeff's 3.17 kernel I've now got two PP Biz's (apparently the bastard step child of Pogoplug'dem) up and running. They are working great.

bodhi, Am I correct that the built in Ralink wireless adapter is not supported yet in 3.17?
