wget: not an http or ftp url

[flyyboyy]

Absolute noob to Linux, but have done a lot of reading, trying to learn -- please be gentle. . .

Trying to install ALARM on a pogoplug V2. When I get to
wget http://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/mke2fs
I get
Connecting to archlinuxarm.org (50.116.36.110:80)
then
wget: not an http or ftp url: https://archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/mke2fs

How do I get wget to download from https? Or what am I not seeing (doing)?

Thanx -- flyyboyy

Apparently http://archlinuxarm.org redirects to https which wget on the original firmware doesn't seem to support.

That in turn redirects to http://os.archlinuxarm.org/os/pogoplug/mke2fs, which at least for me doesn't cause any more https redirects, so you might want to try that url.
