When I attempt to perform a full system upgrade:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
alarm is up to date
aur is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace libsystemd with core/systemd? [Y/n] ^C
Interrupt signal received
')
I thought maybe clearing the package cache might resolve the issue:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
packman -Scc
Cache directory: /var/cache/pacman/pkg/
Do you want to remove ALL files from cache? [y/N] y
removing all files from cache...
Database directory: /var/lib/pacman/
Do you want to remove unused repositories? [Y/n] y
removing unused sync repositories...
pacman -Syu
:: Synchronizing package databases...
core is up to date
extra is up to date
community is up to date
alarm is up to date
aur is up to date
:: Starting full system upgrade...
:: Replace libsystemd with core/systemd? [Y/n] ^C
Interrupt signal received
')
What do I need to do to get this resolved?

Don't worry, things function as before. This will not switch you to systemd

Hi,
I went ahead and followed these instructions: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/De ... iki:usrlib. Now I can't mount my hfsplus hard drives any lomger. I now get the "mount: unknown filesystem type 'hfsplus'" message which never happened before I attempted the full system upgrade.
The hfsplus is now missing:

Next question, I was thinking of reverting back to the stock Pogoplug Series 4 firmware. According to: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 ... s-ui-tabs3
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
Revert to Stock Firmware
We understand that some people don't wish to stay with Arch Linux ARM and just want to get their plug back to the way it was out of the box. The process of reverting to stock has been made very simple for this device:
Shut down the device, remove any drives you have attached
On a FAT32 USB drive, create a folder named "revert"
Plug this drive into the top USB port, and power on the plug
The LED will stay blinking green for a moment, then turn red. This signals that the stock firmware is operating. You should be able to find the device on my.pogoplug.com again.
')
I formatted a 1GB thumb drive as FAT32 and created a folder 'revert' on it. When I plug in the thumb drive (no other hard drives are plugged into the PPv4) the LED flashes green and does not turn red. I wait for several minutes but all I see is a flashing green LED. I am using the stock boot loader that was installed when I initially setup the PPv4 using these instructions: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 ... s-ui-tabs2.

Re: Pogoplug Series 4: Problem doing full system upgrade

Okay so I decided to do a clean install of Arm Linux. I have another Seagate portable drive. I followed steps 6-10 from here: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 ... s-ui-tabs2. This installed 3.1.10-13. When I booted the install, hfsplus support is still missing.
Now I am really confused. From what I have been reading hfsplus is built into the kernel. When I did the install last time on my Pogoplug Series 4, hfsplus existed in 3.1.10-13 (see viewtopic.php?f=18&t=4154).
I am also not sure how to resolve these things as well:
$this->bbcode_list('3') I have tried to perform the 'revert' using these instructions (http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 ... s-ui-tabs3). All I get is a flashing green light, no red LED flash. I have not modified u-boot. I want to use netconsole to monitor u-boot. Reading this http://forum.doozan.com/read.php?3,14 it shows using the fw_setenv command. According to viewtopic.php?t=1635#p8997 I did to do:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
mkdir /media/nand
mount /dev/mtdblock2 /media/nand -t jffs2 -o noatime
File is on /media/nand somewhere
/media/nand/usr/bin/fw_printenv
fw_setenv is symlinked to fw_printenv
')
When I try to mount /dev/mtdblock2 I get back an error that says /dev/mtdblock2 has a bad super block and I can't mount it.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

WarheadsSE,
Thanks. Now as far as hfsplus, would you happen to know what I need to do to get it to work again? I did a clean install like I did the first time and hfsplus was there. Now when I try to do the second clean install it is not there.
