Re: Latest concise installation guide for PogoPlug E02 - 9 years ago
Swap is not enabled by default because bodhi tries to keep the Debian image as stock and light as possible. It's easy enough to create a swap file which performs similarly to a swap partition. In fact a swap file might be better because you can adjust it as needed.by LeggoMyEggo - Debian

Download the files you need (utilities and flash files) on a desktop machine running Windows or Linux. Put the files on a flash drive formatted to Fat32. On the plug, use busybox to create a directory in /tmp (i.e. mkdir /tmp/flashloc) and mount the flash drive to that location - usb start, mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/flashloc. Cd to /tmp/flashloc. Chmod a+x all the utility files. Then run all theby LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

Re: step by step of how to install Debian on stock PogoplugPro - 9 years ago
I wasn't ignoring grayman4hire's (Qnology) blog, I was just trying to prevent confusion by referring to steps to get his Pro booting Debian using only threads in this forum. But no question gm4h's instructions work very well. His instructions get you started but you will end up coming back here if you want to update rootfs / u-boot to the latest and keep both updated.

Re: step by step of how to install Debian on stock PogoplugPro - 9 years ago
You can load the 3.17.0 rootfs on a flash drive and boot using the stock u-boot by following the directions here: http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?2,16044 . Look for the section with the 3.17.0 Debian rootfs dowload link and follow the directions underneath it to flash it to a drive. Also note the specific mkimage command to modify uImage to boot with the stock u-boot. I've reprinted theby LeggoMyEggo - uBoot

Default Debian Packages - Post Yours - 10 years ago
Over the course of the last few months of being a member of this site, I have created and re-loaded several versions of bodhi's rootfs' so each time I have to reload the same default (at least to me) packages. These set of default packages cover just about every basic use of Pogoplug or similar device. I have posted my list below and hope others find it of use.

Re: OpenWRT for PogoPlug Pro rootfs tar - 10 years ago
I have to admit not liking a few of the free hosting sites. You never know which button to push to actually download the file. And if you click the wrong button, you end up with popups or start downloading something you didn't want. I would try Google Drive, OneDrive or Dropbox (like bodhi uses). You can share a file via a link. Shouldn't cost you any money.by LeggoMyEggo - uBoot
