I'm trying to restore a pogoplug device that I bricked. Hi Joseph You might not need JTAG. Pogoplug uses a Marvell Kirkwood CPU. The BootROM allows it to boot over serial. Look in the u-boot sources for the utility kwboot. It allows you to download a u-boot into RAM and then execute it. You can then use that to write a u-boot to FLASH. Or boot to Linux and then dd u-boot into mtd.

Do you mean u-boot environment variables? You should not need those to boot u-boot. Also, kwboot does not need u-boot. It uses what is in the Kirkwood ROM, inside the chip. There is no way you can erase that. So if you have erase u-boot, that will not stop kwboot working.

Don't hit send. If someone else fails to do so, just ignore them or be polite about it. Problem solved without spamming everyone on the list and without wasting everyone's time reading such drivel. Every time someone says something off topic (in this instance, Brian), there's someone that doesn't know how to just ignore it or be polite about it (in this instance, Ryan and Clug). Just keep this trite BS off the list. When you get so off topic or, even worse, make it personal, you're doing way more harm than good to this community. If you really want to start a pissing contest and hurt feelings, reply privately and keep everyone else out of it. Seriously sick of reading these whiny personal attacks. -Andrew On Tue, Jun 23, 2015 at 2:54 PM Clug wrote: > On Tue, 23 Jun 2015, Ryan Coleman wrote: > > >> Oh for goodness sake. > > This is Brian Wood, after all. > > He?d be afraid of coming into my home because I don?t believe in things > he believes in. > > I don't like taking chances, so just in case I am hereby declaring my > house a gun-free zone. > > _______________________________________________ > TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota > tclug-list at mn-linux.org > http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list > -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

My real issue here is just how these posts are dealt with. The responses are immediately personal and, for a community, that's the least welcoming thing we could allow. It'd be great if we could stay on topic, but that's not always going to be the case. So, instead of attacking anyone who posts something off topic, consider either ignoring it or replying politely with a simple "I don't believe this isn't the appropriate place to be discussing " on or off list. If they listen and understand, then great. If they don't, then just ignore their future posts. Yelling at them isn't going to do anything at that point and will just annoy everyone else, potentially driving off the lurkers. If we can stick to and agree on that, my vote would be that we don't need moderation. TL;DR: Stating you like or dislike gun zones is less harmful than insinuating you think someone's stupid for that belief. It'd be nice to not have to deal with either though.

Unless you are going to provide something to support asking for 90% of new you should be asking for at least 25% below NIB. Even under best conditions - because the computer is not new, the components in it have taken loads and abuse (if even extremely light). Technology depreciates VERY quickly. If I asked for 90% of asking price after a few years my Galaxy S4 phone would be worth $460. It?s not. It?s worth about $150. An appropriate price for this computer might be $175-$200 OBO. > On Jun 30, 2015, at 2:24 PM, Brian Wood wrote: > > Ryan Coleman writes: > > > Brian, > > > > Just my two bits? but might I suggest that when you price your items for sale you > compare not to unsold auctions but sold ones? > > 2 NIB versions of this laptop have sold for $260.
