I had the same issue - luckily it's a quick fix.
After looking into the script that added the bootloader (http://plugapps.com/os/pogoplug/uboot/pogo_u-boot_install.sh) I ran the following commands to fix this:
cd /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/
./blparam 'bootcmd=run bootcmd_original'
If you run the ./blparam command you can see that bootcmd_usb, bootcmd1, and bootcmd2 are still set, but running the command above bypasses those.
Hey,
In the middle of my PlugApps install when I was on the untar-ing of the OS and drivers in this guide ( http://www.plugapps.com/index.php5?title=PlugApps:Pogoplug_Setboot ) I stopped and decided to install OpenPogo instead. However, I had already installed the bootloader. Anyway, I succeeded in installing OpenPogo to the USB drive and then was on the last step, to reboot (/sbin/reboot). So I type that in via SSH and it turns off, but then the lights come on for a second then stay off. I was almost 99% sure that the new bootloader was trying to boot from the connected USB drive, although there was OpenPogo installed on it, not PlugApps. This was mostly because the USB drive access light was blinking rapidly, so it was definitely getting power. Thankfully, my device is not bricked because if I remove the USB flash drive and then reboot everything is fine. However if I reconnect it after it has turned on I can't access OpenPogo (eg. ipkg commands). So, does anyone know how to uninstall the bootloader?
I read on the guide ( http://www.plugapps.com/index.php5?title=PlugApps:Pogoplug_Setboot ) that the bootloader is installed at /dev/mtd3 so intuitively I tried to delete that file. However, when I use "rm /dev/mtd3" it says it is a read-only file system...? Same thing when I try to change permissions using chmod.
P.S. I'm using a DockStar.
Thanks in advance,
