I do.
I have installed the samba server and am using one drive partition for backups, while use use the others for regular pogo stuff.

Are you using OpenPogo with the newer v.2 of PogoPlug? I read that it may not work with v.2 and may even brick it. I just got the v.2 Pogoplug and would love to try to use OpenPogo to install use samba, bittorrent, Firefly, etc on it. Is it safe to do this on the new v.2 PogoPlug or not?

CrimsonRed,

Here is the info you requested.

#! /bin/sh

mount -t proc none /proc
mount -t sysfs none /sys
mount -t devpts none /dev/pts
mount -t tmpfs none /tmp
mkdir /tmp/var

echo "/tmp/core_%e_%t" > /proc/sys/kernel/core_pattern

hostname Pogoplug

ifconfig lo 127.0.0.1
ifconfig eth0 169.254.37.133
udhcpc -b `hostname`

telnetd
/etc/init.d/db

/etc/init.d/hbmgr.sh start

Thanks
Jim

CrimsonRed,

Here is the output from what you suggested.

Thanks

/opt exists already and I can get to it and use files in /opt/bin

Thanks
Jim

CrimsonRed,

I tried the copy as you suggested and it comes back and says that it is a read only file system.

cp: cannot remove 'rcS': Read-Only file System

Thanks
Jim

Thanks ianjb,

System is back to normal.

CrimsonRed if you should need help with testing I'm fine with that I have nothing critical on my V2 PogoPlug.

Thanks
Jim

jim_richards said: I have OpenPogo installed on the new V2 PogoPlug and it seems to be running fine. I have LightTPD with PHP and FCGI running. LightTPD has been running for about a week now and serving up basic web pages. I haven't done anything with PHP yet because of Crimsonred's advisory. I look forward to the day that we can install OpenPogo on the V2 and not have to worry about doing damage.

 So, what is the advisory on the OpenPogo page about it not running on the V2? And define "bricking". If I have serial console access, I should be able to un-brick it.

A serial cable will allow access to the boot process and the uBoot environment. As long as there is not a real hardware failure and uBoot is intact, the serial cable along with an ethernet connection to a tftp server will enable you to un-brick a system with: a corrupted uBoot environment, corrupted kernel and/or corrupted file system. If uBoot is not intact then a jtag connection is required. The other open (8 pin?) connector provides the jtag functionality but I'm not aware of anyone that has tried/succeeded in using the jtag connection.

DO you you have access to the crimp tool for the hirose connector?
