Any "real" MK802 with reasonable price? - 11 years ago
I tried to experiment with A10 based device. Bought twice from Amazon.com of those specifically stated as MK802/Allwinner A10, etc. However, none of these works with rescue/LUbuntu. Both of them are fake ones from iPazzPort. I am just wondering if there are any reasonably priced ($30-40) MK802 (real or true compatible) on the market that will work as we discussed in the forum?by twinclouds - Allwinner A10

I try to buy and MK802 on Amazon. However, instead I received a "Mini TV for android, Dual-Core A9 Processor", covered by a label "Mini Android PC. The device information shows it is an MK808 with Android 4.1. I found there is a step by step instruction to install Picuntu Linux. Just wondering if anybody have tried this one yet?

Re: Debian install on pogoplug series 4-need help - 11 years ago
Yes. I agree. If it is a rootfs image that can be used in Pogo-4/Mobile, it will be useful for others. I can generate another one but if you already have it for uploading, please just do so.by twinclouds - Debian
Re: Debian install on pogoplug series 4-need help - 11 years ago
@t3ch42. I went through the same process just a couple of weeks ago on my Pogoplug Mobile. I think it should be the same as the series 4. With the help from Bodhi and others, I eventually succeeded. You can read the thread that Bodhi mentioned and should have all the information that you need. The only issue I had was that I still need a rootfs to start with but cannot do direct installationby twinclouds - Debian
Re: trying to reanimate bricked Dockstar - 11 years ago
@michapixel: Do have a backup copy of the previous working USB for device a? If you do, just plug it in. Does it still work? I don't see how upgrade and restarting, even incorrectly, will brick your device. If you don't have one, you probably should in the first place. I think using JTAG is over kill. If you have access to the serial port, I think using UART booting is probably aby twinclouds - Debian
Re: How to enable wireless in Pogoplug Mobile? - 11 years ago
Yes. It does look like an antenna. The Pogo Mobile mainboard is very similar in this portion. How, I cannot find if the Marvell 88f6 chip has wifi built in. It has a miniport wifi interface pin but I don't see the miniport board in the Pogo Mobile.by twinclouds - Debian
Re: How to enable wireless in Pogoplug Mobile? - 11 years ago
I meant that the title says: "... Wireless Backup...". I thought it is wifi. Maybe I misunderstood. BTW, I check the both sides of the board, I can't find anything remotely like a rt2870 wifi chip. Maybe it cannot do wifi after all.by twinclouds - Debian

I think you are right. However, even if we can enable it, it still need the RF frontend to receive and transmit.

Re: [Pogoplug Mobile] Install uBoot/Debian - 11 years ago
Just found one more thing, the swap space is not enabled for SD card boot. To enable it, you will need to edit the /etc/fstab and replace the line /dev/sda2 none swap sw 0 0 with /dev/mmcblk0p2 none swap sw 0 0 or add it if not exist. It will be important considering the small ram space available for Pogoplug Mobile.by twinclouds - Debian

Re: How to enable wireless in Pogoplug Mobile? - 11 years ago
No. I didn't looked the board that carefully either. Somehow, I remember J&R advertised it has the wireless capability when I bought it. I got the same dmesg results as bodhi from the original Pogo firmware but I don't see rt2870 in the Wheezy installation. Not sure why. I found this link. It might give some hints.by twinclouds - Debian
How to enable wireless in Pogoplug Mobile? - 11 years ago
With the help from Bodhi, ChessPlayer and others, I installed Wheezy on the Pogo Mobile and it can boot from either the USB port or the SD card. However, even though the device includes a rt2870STA wifi chip, Debian cannot really use it. Modprobe rt2870 or rt2870STA cannot find anything. Does anybody know how to enable the wifi function for Pogo Mobile? Please share if you can. Thanks.by twinclouds - Debian
Re: [Pogoplug Mobile] Install uBoot/Debian - 11 years ago
Indeed, it works for me! However, in my case, the machid is F78 for Pogo Mobile. Now next step is to make the wifi work. Any references/suggestions?*by twinclouds - Debian

O.K. Eventually, I made it work after I modified the envs given by dhead666 in here: http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=4987! Specifically, I added some envs related to mmc and changed mmc_bootcmd according dhead666 by doing the following: fw_setenv mmc_root /dev/mmcblk0p1 fw_setenv mmc_set_bootargs 'setenv bootargs console=$console root=$mmc_root' fw_setenvby twinclouds - Debian

Re: [Pogoplug Mobile] Install uBoot/Debian - 11 years ago
I generated a new wheezy installation on Dockstar and then used on Pogo Mobile. The serial interface works fine now. I will try to see if it will work on SD card and let you guys know. Thank you all for your help. I tried the SD card boot. It still didn't work. This is what I tried. First, I use a microSD card in a USB adapter and put the wheezy rootfs on it.

Re: [Pogoplug Mobile] Install uBoot/Debian - 11 years ago
Chessplayer: Yes, it was the serial connection. As for what you suggested, I did that already but no joy. What happened was that, after some short time, the output stopped. I hit the return and no response. If I disconnect and then connect, there's no responce anyway. The funny thing is it only happen for pogo mobile.

Re: [Pogoplug Mobile] Install uBoot/Debian - 11 years ago

I tried to use serial console to see what's things going on, then I found that at some stage of booting, the output become random characters. It then stoped somewhere and hit return didn't do anything. I tried the good booting USB, the results were the same (random ouput) even though it still worked. I triby twinclouds - Debian

Re: [Pogoplug Mobile] Install uBoot/Debian - 11 years ago

(2) Which script should I use to install Debian on USB drive or SD/MMC card? Thanks.by twinclouds - Debian
