Solid Orange Light. Cannot SSH into pogoplug

[evhoria]

Hey guys. I'm having trouble connecting to pogoplug with SSH. I was able to connect before and then I unplugged it and plugged it back in and now when I try to connect to it I get "Network error: Connection refused". It baffles me because I have a solid orange light, I get a response from it when I ping the IP address, the Daemon setup to autostart kicked off and I am able to connect to a web service I setup. The only thing I cannot do is SSH into it. Can anyone help?

You should be using search. One of many topics about this problem: viewtopic.php?f=18&t=1844
The problem is ext2. As soon as you unplug power you get file system corruption. You should be issuing "reboot" to reboot or "shutdown -h now" before you unplug the power. Consider converting to ext3 viewtopic.php?f=18&t=2580

Lesson Learned. Thanks for the advise. I did do a search but solution results I got back was to reformat. I was hoping that there would still be a way to log in. I ended up just formatting everything and starting from the beginning. The next step for me is to figure out how to convert to ext3. In the meantime, I will only shutdown or restart by command line.
