$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', 'F')or point of record:

The problem here was a corrupt rootfs. Corrupt in that 90% of the kernel modules were 0 bytes, and the rcS was killed.

I worked with ahmao to boot from tftp to our kernel, and then replace the rootfs in nand from there. His kernel in NAND was fine :)


Thanks a lot to WarheadsSE to help me out.

Essentially, either SATA boot, or a serial connection, then repairing the stock rootfs with files from a valid image.

thanks for your quick answer ! :)

Actually, I want to know what I have to input what commands on console after connection of ttl console.

Now, I can boot by using USB stic memory.

but I lost rootfs everything. (I did " rm -R / " on original pogoplug ssh connetion(pogoplug B01 model)) :cry:

I did below processes. (post of timstegeman)
------------------------------------------------
flash_erase /dev/mtd0 0 4
nandwrite /dev/mtd0 uboot-mtd0-dump
------------------------------------------------
&
run oxnas-install.sh

So I can boot by using USB memory stic card, but I cannot boot without USB memory stic

My pogoplug history
bricked pogoplug --> can boot by sata hdd --> can boot by usb stic memory --> can boot by itself ( i hope )

I'm waiting console cable from eBay, and I am preparing repairing procedure.

Could you tell me what I have to use what commands on console ?

I want to use below kernel & ramdisk images.

I am not aware of those images, but TBH, don't futz with the kernel if you don't know *exactly* what you are doing.
