use second USB thumb drive for this (see the download link in my signature).Īfter you've booted into Debian, setup netconsole right away for future recovery purpose. This set up must be done on the GoFlex Home before you can connect to it with netconsole server on another computer (in this example, 192.168.1.2 is the IP addr of this computer).įw_setenv start_netconsole 'setenv ncip $serverip setenv bootdelay 10 setenv stdin nc setenv stdout nc setenv stderr nc version 'įw_setenv preboot 'run if_netconsole start_netconsole'īut it is not too late! you can download my latest Debian rootfs and put that on new USB thumb.

You do need to configure it, as Jeff described in the instruction. > converter, so I can't get to the GoFlex console > be manually setup? I don't have a USB-serial cable > uboot image run nc by default, or does it have to I configured the laptop's eth0.1/.2./3 with 10.10.10.5/.4/.2, respectively, and ran "nc -lup 6666", but get no response at all. The only packets I can see coming from the GoFlex are a couple of arp requests from 10.10.10.6 asking who has 10.10.10.5. I did connect the GoFlex directly to my laptop via Ethernet and ran Wireshark. Does Jeff's uboot image run nc by default, or does it have to be manually setup? I don't have a USB-serial cable converter, so I can't get to the GoFlex console port to configure it.

Seems OS X does weird things to ISO images when using dd. After I rebuilt my laptop, I used dd to re-image the USB flash drive and stuck it back in the GoFlex. I copied the archlinuxarm image using the dd utility on my wife's MacBook. I accidentally crashed my Linux laptop, and the only USB flash drive I had on hand was the one in the GoFlex, so I "borrowed" it. The storage array was in JBOD mode, and md was properly running a RAID 5 config with four 2T drives - sweet.Įverything was working fine, until I pulled a bone-headed move.

The GoFlex was successfully serving up a software RAID 5 array on a Sans Digital RAID storage array connected via a SATA-eSATA adapter cable to the GoFlex (yes - the Kirkwood does have a built-in SATA port multiplier!). So I'm using v0.6 of the UBIT environment from and. I'm having problems getting netconsole to help troubleshoot my GoFlex Home problems.īack in September of 2013, I installed Arch Linux ARM on it, using the instructions over at the GoFlex Home page. I found this thread after following Alice down the rabbit hole. Or, can you tell me what to do to bring this back to life? Don't know where to JTAG this.so, have to do everything through the ETHERNET.

no IP through W7 APIPA.ĭon't have a serial cable. I "cut and pasted" the commands, that I had to use, so I wouldn't screw anything up.thought I did the commands exactly as they posted it.

So, went to, followed the Instructions on their page for a Series 4, first to get SSH access into the pogo.then through PuTTY, via the IP my router's DHCP server gave it. Realized I was going into my Hard Drive through POGOPLUG.COM, and I didn't like that.I bought this, I shouldn't have to go through a Parent company's website just to get to my own network. Hi Jeff, it's been a year or so since you posted that reply about setting up a TFTP/DHCP server, and here's my situation.īought a POGOPLUG MOBILE, hooked it into my router.the POGOPLUG website found it, after I activiated it. How can I do it manually, without using the script?
Seagate dockstar without using pogoplug upgrade#
I'd like to force an upgrade of uboot, I guess.

Preboot=run if_netconsole start_netconsole Start_netconsole=setenv ncip $serverip setenv bootdelay 10 setenv stdin nc setenv stdout It was suggested that I try upgrading uboot, but I guess because it's already been altered, the md5sum is different and the script here: refuses to run.īootcmd=bootp setenv bootargs root=/dev/nfs nfsroot=$::off bootm I already followed this guide: īut I think that I followed it too early, as it does not work for me. I am trying to get netconsole set up on a SeaGate GoFlex.
