box bricked. 2nd time? but with the official OS (reverted)

[leckmaul666]

HI folks. sorry for my crab i built.
but
after checking my knowing about linux, samba and so all. it was better for me too see, that i am not so good in linux.
so my decision to rebuild the "official" pogo pro software on it.

jap. i did it. i tried it, checked the "build" error after pasting the nice words and sentences in the console.
everything fine told me the ssh-client in the terminal.

ok i restarted my box.
BUT now. it s only blinking and the usb stick is not booting.(the red lamp on the stick is not shining, nothing going)
so my problem:

no usb-drive.
no dhcp
juuuuust blinking...

oh yeah thank god its christmas;)

thank your for helping me
my fault.

Are you sure you have a pogoplug pro ?
Did you use the script in post 2 here viewtopic.php?f=29&t=1114 ?
Can you post a link to the instructions you followed?

If you are reverting to stock, then it diodes not boot from the USB stick. Have you tried unplugging the USB stick to see what happens?

-japp for sure! model pogo plug pro.
i already opened the box, there is a sata plug and a wlan card in there with 2 antennas.

- I took this post:http://archlinuxarm.org/forum/viewtopic.php?f=29&t=1114
called "[RESOLVED] How to boot from original software"
with this firmware.
http://archlinuxarm.org/os/oxnas/oxnas-revert.sh

i used this per ssh terminal after the message :

ABORTING!!! Cannot locate blparam

/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/blparam must exist
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i take the advise from WarheadsSE
from his post and put this code in the terminal and enter ok

# premake the destination
mkdir -p /usr/local/cloudengines/bin
# make tmp mountpoint
mkdir /tmp/ce
# mount NAND fs.
mount -t ubifs -o ro ubi0:rootfs /tmp/ce
# copy what we need
cp /tmp/ce/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/blparam /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
cp /tmp/ce/usr/local/cloudengines/bin/xce.ko /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
cp /tmp/ce/usr/sbin/nandwrite /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
cp /tmp/ce/usr/sbin/flash_erase /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
# unmount
umount /tmp/ce
# DONE.e]


ok then my system said "fine everything is fine" i restarted the box and now, usb stick is not going (no lights so no work) and the box is blinking.

Do you have a sata drive to use?
Otherwise. You'll probably need help from someone else
Tom

[leckmaul666]

japp got 340gb sata drive... i could put it on the sata-plug,
the power i would take it from my computer.

but your link. it seems to be difficult for me to manage this. hoi hoi...

[leckmaul666]

but tomorrow i drink some beer and with gods help i could check this out.
more broken than now, is not possible

[Socaltom]

Look for the topic "[How-To] Boot Entirely from SATA".
The Pro boots the sata port first, even before it goes to nand, so you should be able to getting booting from Sata and determine what to do after.
Tom

[leckmaul666]

ok i tried it
but
now
the led is blinking.
sata drive is working and booting. and else
then green led is out... but now i got power on my usb ports
but no dhcp or something. no green led no nothing. hmpf

[Socaltom]

did you try to ssh in? Some people have reported similar behaviour but it responded to the SSH request.
Tom

[leckmaul666]

i dont have any ip adresse per dhcp
how could i connect per ssh?

for usual i need the ip adress from the box, or? but if there is a hint, pls tell me:)

in 2 days i will throw it in the garbage basket.

it try it really with 3 harddisk severel times. the disk is working. the led is blinking. usb got power. but nothing happend.

no dhcp no permission.
