creating new bootable usb

Postby MarkB » Thu Oct 06, 2011 8:03 pm

Hello all,

I'm quite new to the scene and running into a problem, hope someone can help.
I installed Arch linux on my pogoplug B04 succesfully using the guide on: http://archlinuxarm.org/platforms/armv6 ... provideov3.
Unfortunatley i ran out of space on my 1Gig USB stick due to an update of the system. Now i'm aming at producing a bigger bootable stick. following the 2nd part of the mentioned guide :"Help it stopped working" on a bigger disk ( tried a couple) results in a permanent blinking led. I've followed the guide to the letter, i'm not sure (clueless actualy) what to do next.

When i try to boot my pogoplug with my 1GiG USB all is well, when i boot without any usb the led also keep blinking permanently. Can anyone help?

King regards,

Mark

Still blinking, but the system is working, yes?
