Ok:
If you can ssh in, run `cat /proc/cpuinfo`
If it says anything about Marvell, and not "oxnas" then you're good :)
Arch Linux ARM has a 3.0.1 kernel for the Marvell Kirkwood/Feroceon systems
Categories: Pogoplug Classic
I'd used OpenEmbedded on LinkStations for a while... Koen Kooi or someone else from there put up this nifty rootfs generator...
http://narcissus.angstrom-distribution.org/
I see that it has "SheevaPlug" as a target device option. How close is the SheevaPlug to the original PogoPlugs (Kirkwoodbased)?
I also have a POGO-B01 Pink on the way via UPS from Adorama. It is my understanding that such an image just might run on the non-OXNAS Pogos.
Has anyone tried this?
====================
ARGHHH!!! In haste, I may have misunderstood some of the documentation I had read... It was my understanding that B01 could have Debian and a newer mainline kernel installed on/to it... it seems that this may _not_ be the case...
Was really hoping to use a Pogoplug for my 1-wire Weather Station and Webcam in our garden... 
I'm afraid that when I receive it, it may be OXNAS rather than Kirkwood...
No kernel, no joy, I need webcam drivers...

Hahhhhh... I "misremembered" a mistake... I actually ordered the EO2, not the BO2
so I should be OK... the EO2 is documented everywhere as being Marvell-based, not OXNAS...
and Adorama's info service has assured me that I have an EO2 ordered and shipping to me... so, unless they renege on their promise, I should be Marvellously ready to swap in a new uboot...
Has anyone ever make a uboot w/ netconsole for the Pogoplug? I did that here (for the Buffalo LS Pro V1/V2 a few years ago). It was a lot of work patching, and even more in terms of making it stable & nonbricking... my ARM-JTAG-USB adapter was pretty much my safety net. I took the Buffalo/Marvell sources (based on uboot 1.1.1, iirc), and patched it w/ code from uboot 1.1.4.
Netconsole (with netcat or nc) is a nice way to access and control the boot process.
