Flashing Green. Can't Ping. Can't SSH. Can't do squat.

I think my subject line should say enough.

Everything was working fine and dandy. I have POGO-P21 (black colour) and I installed the appropriate Archlinux and Mysql, etc, etc. I was even serving web pages with Apache for a little while.

Then the other day I looked and it was flashing quickly green. I couldn't ping it, find it in the DHCP, nor ssh to it.

I can't think of how I can connect directly to it without a working network...

I found some posts on checking files on it, etc, but i"m not that high level.

I am open to completely redoing everything from scracth if I could even start that process but how without SSH?

I am an open learner and I'm willing to try any suggestions. I thank you in advance for any tips.

I wish i could understand this:

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('', 'P')lace your boot drive in another Linux computer/device and check the file system.

I was able, it seems, to get this command to produce my drive info which was somewhat encouraging.

sudo fdisk -l

I am a rookie, btw, and maybe a non-rookie can glance at this screen shot of the way I set up the USB drive and say butthead!! why'd you do THAT? Anxiously awaiting any tips if you've got 'em!
