box bricked. 2nd time? but with the official OS (reverted)

I think its booting, just crashing at the network startup. Can you take the drive to another linux box and check the logs? Otherwise I think you will need the serial cable as discussed in other posts.

Did you remember this part
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'The last thing needed is this: create & edit usr/local/mac_addr on the extracted rootfs, (not this machine you are using to do this!) and place in your device's MAC address in the format XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX.')

Interesting,
I had a spare SATA drive, so I decided to try it myself. I had a similar error, my IP addresses are 192.168.10.XXX and the daemon.log says it was accepting a lease from 192.168.11.1 ?

japp ich changed the mac-adrr to the right one
i did it!

in the rc.config i did change nothing cause of dhcp

[Socaltom]

Before you give up on it, you should also try the traditional HD install method using your Sata drive. I've found it much more reliable.

and how? do u have a to do list?

[Socaltom]

Place your boot drive in another Linux computer/device
Partition the drive wi fdisk

Create the ext2 file system

Download and extract the root file system

Create a file at /usr/local/mac_addr and place in it your Pro's MAC address (its on the bottom of the unit) in the format XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX. Safely umount the drive from the computer, plug it back in to the powered-off Pogoplug, and then plug in the Pogoplug in the sata port

Power on drive, the power on plug, cross your fingers and check dhcp

Don't forget to copy the file system to the drive as root.
