[Pogoplug v4-a3-01] Fresh Install - Green Light - No Network

[ThatITdude]

Hi Guys,

I bought a Pogoplug v4-a3-01 and followed the instructions here http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv5 ... g-series-4

I think I forgot to run sync and umount the first time.
I rebooted the device, the device came up, I could see a device named "alarm" in the dhcp table, but I couldn't ssh. (I go "connection refused")

I thought I had messed up the installation, so I reverted using the FAT32 - "revert" folder method.
It reverted successfully.

However, since then, whenever I try to install Arch, after the final step, the device reboots, the green light flickers for a while and becomes solid, but I don't see the network port lights blinking. I don't see the device in the dhcp table either.

I'm able to "revert" successfully at any time, but I can't get Arch going.
I've tried three different pen drives.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Hi Everyone,

I found my problem.
I had set up DHCP reservation for my Pogoplug, which it apparently didn't like (I'm working on the details now)
Removed the reservation and it came up perfectly fine.

Just thought this might help someone.
