Point of difference, mine is a black pogoplug v02, not a pink or grey...
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.
I can wait until tonight. This has been on my todo list since I picked
up this pogoplug back in the fall.
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.
So it seems.
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
We are talking about 2 different things. I thought the instructions
meant I use on of the USB-to-serial dongles like one of these:
http://www.iogear.com/product/GUC232A/
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.
Well all I really want it for is a backup server running rsyncd. Thought
samba stuff would be nice but not necessary.
