The MAC address is most definitely related.

- Ensure that /usr/local/mac_addr contains the MAC address.
- ensure that /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/xce.ko exists
- ensure that set-oxnas-mac is in the DAEMONS list of rc.conf

That script is located in /etc/rc.d/

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', 'T')he MAC address is most definitely related.

- Ensure that /usr/local/mac_addr contains the MAC address.

It does contain the correct (on the bottom of the Pogo written) MAC Address

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', '
')- ensure that /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/xce.ko exists

it does

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', '
')- ensure that set-oxnas-mac is in the DAEMONS list of rc.conf

That script is located in /etc/rc.d/

There is no such file in the /etc/rc.d directory. However there are two files in the /etc directory named rc.conf. One is called rc.conf and it has the following two lines at the end:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'DAEMONS=(set-oxnas-mac !hwclock syslog-ng network netfs crond sshd openntpd)
DAEMONS=(!hwclock syslog-ng network netfs crond sshd)')

The other one is called rc.conf.pacnew and has one line at the end:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'DAEMONS=(hwclock syslog-ng network netfs crond sshd)')

in /etc/rc.conf, find the line that reads 'DAEMONS=( ...)', and ensure that 'set-oxnas-mac' is in there, prior to 'network'

As I explained in my post before, I found the rc.conf files and checked them. There are two of them actually. One named rc.conf and one named rc.conf.pacnew

I put set-oxnas-mac in both of them and now they both have this line at the end:
$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'DAEMONS=(set-oxnas-mac !hwclock syslog-ng network netfs crond sshd openntpd)')
I rebooted and it keeps flashing.

I apparently accidentally didn't read the second page and got confused.


There should only be one DAEMONS line, not two... remove that second one.

and /etc/rc.d/set-oxnas-mac should indeed exist.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', '
')There should only be one DAEMONS line, not two... remove that second one.

That did it. Deleted the second line, rebooted and boom, Headshot.

Thanks a lot.

By the way, since I am not really a programer (and honestly don't want to start to be one), is there a way to contribute to this project in ways like a donation? Because I really think this is very good work here.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('hilikustue', '')$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('WarheadsSE', 'F')or the LED, see here:
viewtopic.php?f=29&t=1625&p=9778#p9778


Thanks. I tried these lines
$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/
cd /
umount /tmp/ce')
and checked the Mac Address in /usr/local/mac_addr (it was correct) but it didn't do any changes.

Also noteworthy may be that the Mac Address the Pogo has in the DHCP List of my router is different then the Mad Address in /usr/local/mac_addr

Any thoughts?



Hello
I just did this and from the other linked instructions and did this with the mac address on the bottom of my pogo

$this->bbcode_second_pass_code('', 'touch /usr/local/mac_addr
echo "XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX" > /usr/local/mac_addr')

now it seems to just be stuck...
i typed reboot after hoping it would boot to the non-flashing led, but it took forever to i guess shut down (got kicked out of putty) and now its been 15-20mins+ and its still flashing green and won't show up on my network

not sure what to do here, going to let it just keep sitting until it does something or I hear a suggestion...
let me also mention i'm completely new to linux and all of this, just got my pogo today, so any help would be appreciated
thanks!

@colbz
Well good news, unless you used a really old rootfs, this should have been fixed.. (the led) from the rootfs. The mac_addr file, I obviously can't infer.

Was your pogoplug a Pro, P21, B01/2/3/4? I'd assume so. Also, was it factory fresh?

Oh, well I'm not sure which version rootfs, just went through the main page's directions for the main arch install, updated the files and noticed the green light was still on and flashing after 20+ minutes (still is flashing :? )
i tried unplugging/replugging it in bout an hour ago still flashes and doesnt show up on network
its the pogo pro and got it mid afternoon today, checked out their software first then decided to approach this
it did update the pro itself at some point if thats what you mean
and i ordered it originally off their website

was gonna ask if theres logs but checked putty's options and i guess default is off
any other info i can provide to help?
