[RESOLVED]I think i killed my pogo

[Mazdaspeed6]

I recently used the guide here: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6 ... provideov3 and was able to successfully install the firmware. All was working well, i installed samba and that was working great then i decided to run the pacman update. i used this command i beleive pacman -Syu. It took around 15 minutes to complete and it continued to work fine after that. Then i rebooted the pogoplug (P21) and nothing was working...i couldnt ping anything from the ssh, samba wasnt working and most of the conf files were empty. When i tried to run the samba install again it said there was no address record. I removed the usb drive and reformatted it and then downloaded and extracted the tar file on the bottom of the insallation page. Now its just a flashing LED and no ssh access. What do i do???

I highly doubt it is killed.

Try this:
Check in the new rootfs for /etc/rc.conf, and in the line that reads DAEMONS=(...), place a second network after the first. I have had reports that for whatever reason, some things don't set correctly and simply restarting the network solves the problem.

Thanks for the response, i re copied the files over to a different USB drive and am able to ssh into it now. Everything seems fine except the stupid LED wont stop flashing. I saw a thread on this but the commands dont seem to work. How can i stop it flashing?

the ubi device is auto-attached by the kernel, so:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
mkdir -p /usr/local/cloudengines/bin
mkdir /tmp/ce
mount -t ubifs -o ro ubi0:rootfs /tmp/ce
cp /tmp/ce/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/xce.ko /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
cp /tmp/ce/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/blparam /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
')

That ought to cover it. Then, reboot.

* fixed typo in destination folder name.

Make sure that you follow these instructions to prevernt the udev issues.

here is the output from the commands:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '[root@alarm ~]# mkdir /usr/local/cloundengines/bin
mkdir: cannot create directory `/usr/local/cloundengines/bin': No such file or directory
[root@alarm ~]# mkdir /tmp/ce
[root@alarm ~]# mount -t ubifs -o ro ubi0:rootfs /tmp/ce
[root@alarm ~]# cp /tmp/ce/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/xce.ko /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
cp: cannot create regular file `/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/': No such file or directory
[root@alarm ~]# cp /tmp/ce/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/blparam /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/mkdir /usr/local/cloundengines/bin

Why the hell can't you create...that.. folder, as root?

Try doing it folder at a time.

I mean
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', '
mkdir /usr/local/cloudengines
mkdir /usr/local/cloudengines/bin
')
and then proceed with the rest.

[WarheadsSE]

Ah, derp..

mkdir -p /usr/local/cloudengines/bin

Fixed the original post too .
