I house a friends pogoplug that stopped working after he installed samba and rebooted it remotely. I have been trying to help get it back up so he can use it but it no longer boots into arch. I have tried installing arch from my linux laptop onto a couple usb sticks with ext2 and ext3 but neither worked. I finally got my hands on a serial connection the other day and discovered that what is going on is a kernal panic, unable to sync VFS, unknown block (0,0).
When I boot without a flash drive it boots but fails dhcp. It actually sends the ack and recieves the reply but then fails. The error is udhcpc/default.script script not found. If I manually set an ip I can ping it.
So where do I go from here? Should I be tring to re-load uboot? Should I try a rescue usb drive?
