Problems with a pogoplug v02

I have been trying to follow:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/PogoplugUSBDisk

Point of difference, mine is a black pogoplug v02, not a pink or grey...

I built a F18 USB drive on a 8Gb drive following:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F18/GuruPlug

I did this from a F18 notebook. When I mount this drive back in to the notebook, it does not see anything, and disk manager sees the drive as one partition of unknown linux type.

I then followed the Pogoplug instructions for F18 and rebooted. Of course there is no reboot command, and no power cycle switch, so the only way I can see to reboot is unplug and plug back in.

After this power cycle, I attempted to ssh in, and instead of the Fedora root password,it was the password I assigned via the pogoplug.com enable SSH setting. And I ended up in bash.

I am looking at the instructions at

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F18/GuruPlug

And am I suppose to be using a serial port during this first boot? I do have a USB serial device, but I would need that on my linux notebook for a serial port. Oh, wait, I have an old XP notebook with a serial port... If this USB serial device works, do I use a 'regular' serial cable (whatever that is these days) and what port settings do I use?

At what point do I restart this install process?

thank you.

Oh 'free' on bash is showing 256Mb of memory?

I have a Pogoplug e02 sitting waiting to be used, and now I am ready to set it up. I have been using Fedora on my notebooks and Centos on my servers for a lot of years, so want to stay with what I know. I see that F18 for ARM was released in Feb:

http://lists.fedoraproject.org/pipermail/arm/2013-February/005314.html

However the instructions I am finding are for the F18 beta. I started with:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/PogoplugUSBDisk

which has both F17 and F18 instructions. At this point, why start with F17 and have one less year before having to upgrade? But this page points to:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/Kirkwood#Writing_the_Image

which talks about F18-beta. So what do I have to do to build a F18 production image and is there anything else I need to do?

I don't know about the PogoPlug, but there is an F18 Kirkwood release image that was tested on GuruPlug:

http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Architectures/ARM/F18/GuruPlug#Writing_the_Image

so maybe that could replace the "Kirkwood#Writing_the_Image" part of the instructions.

Thanks the instructions for the Pogoplug say it uses the same image as the Guruplug, only slightly different steps to get it working.




Oh, the primary use of this system will be as a backup/archive server.
