I know they had done black casings, but not personally seen any of the V2s in Black.
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.
I do recall the reboot command being missing, but there was a way to reboot it, I think 'init 6' still works. But it's been about a half year since I touched mine.
There have been a fair bit of changes since I did a major update of those instructions for early F17. I'll try to look them over tonight with one of my Pogoplugs.
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.
So it did not boot to fedora, your still in the PogoPlug's native linux.
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?
/!\ Do Not Use a normal serial adapter/port! The logic levels will be at 12volts and will fry your pogoplugs UART.
The pogoplus expects 3.3V logic level. I personally use one these https://www.sparkfun.com/products/9873
At what point do I restart this install process? thank you. Oh 'free' on bash is showing 256Mb of memory?
Yes, those Pogoplugs only came 256Mb. -- Scott Sullivan _______________________________________________ arm mailing list arm@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/arm
