I wasn't able to make the booting multiple drives to work with just Bodhi's instructions alone. That's the only way I could connect to the thing without shorting the pins together. It's a four connector like a regular PP but half the size smaller so you need the special Molex Pico connector and pins from the likes of Digikey.

I guess I need to get the Sheevaplug LED scripts loaded on my rootfs so I can have proper control.Īnd as a side note and for posterity, it anyone comes across one of these be prepared to order a special connector in order to get serial console on this thing. With respect to the LED's, I can only get one to light up but before I modified u-boot, one lit up green and the other one lit up red when everything was working correctly (<<< edit: When it was stock both LED's lit up green). If the NAND is built into the SOC somehow, it would make sense that it has the same as a Sheevaplug as it's the same motherboard and it even says Globalscale on it. When I compared the motherboard on my E-01 to a standard Sheevaplug, the E-01 is missing two of the DRAM chips which would explain the missing 256MB that a regular Sheevaplug has. I picked up the E-01 second hand so I don't have the box or information that came with it and the internet is pretty void of any info on this particular Pogoplug. > Also, make sure you actually have 256MB RAM > With 512MB NAND, you have enough NAND to flash a > Back a few years ago, some of us got the Dockstar > think any u-boot has hard coded NAND capacity. > because there are actually 512MB in it. » Dimensions: 3.39 in L x 3.35 in W x 1.50 in D (86.00 L x 85.00 W x 38.> You are the lucky one :) it shows 512MB of NAND » Send pictures straight from your iPhone® to the FreeAgent DockStar network adapter. » Dock a FreeAgent Go™ drive and connect up to three USB storage devices. » Appears as a local drive whether in the home or accessed through the internet. » Enables friends to upload content as well, creating a comprehensive share space.

While Seagate still focuses on manufacturing hard drives, they have begun to offer other complimentary items such as digital media players, network attached storage devices, and docking stations for portable hard drives. Back then, the hard drives were extremely large in physical size, expensive and not very energy efficient.

Seagate has been one of the top hard drive manufacturers since they began shipping drives in 1956.
