Specific Configuration Interfaces The default network configuration is: Interface Name Description Default configuration eth0 Ethernet port DHCP Failsafe The DockStar cannot be put into failsafe mode by pressing the button. It can however be put in failsafe mode using serial console and pressing 'f' and <enter> when prompted during boot-up Buttons The DockStar's only button is not configurable and inevitably performs a hard reset when pressed, the button open the bridge between the positive pole and the power cord.

To open the case, gently pry all around with a thin screwdriver until it is open. The serial pins are accessible without further disassembly. Serial → port.serial general information about the serial port, serial port cable, etc. How to connect to the Serial Port of this specific device: Insert photo of PCB with markings for serial port Replace EXAMPLE by real values. Serial connection parameters for Seagate Dockstar GoFlex EXAMPLE 115200, 8N1 SSH Connect device to Ethernet port. To prevent automatic updates by cloud engines (which may disable ssh access), use a separate switch or disconnect your router from the internet. If the ssh access was disabled by the automatic cloud engine update service, you need to login there and re-activate ssh. Find IP address, BE and EF are the last two bytes of the MAC of your device (printed on the bottom of the Dockstar) root@host ~ # ifconfig eth0 169.254.1.0 root@host ~ # nmap -e eth0 -sP $(printf "169.254.%d.%d" 0xbe 0xef) Connect to IP address via ssh (root / stxadmin) to see if it works. Finding the IP address did not work on my device, but i managed to get it this way: root@host ~ tcpdump -s 1500 -n -l -w - -i $MYETHERNET dst 169.254.255.255 | strings Hello there.

You need to login to the original firmware via ssh first. Another method beside using “dd” is nanddump. To be on the safe side, you should take a 2nd backup with the nanddump method. Assuming you have a USB Stick or other USB drive mapped via sda - you can try this: cd /tmp mkdir backup mount /dev/sda1 /tmp/backup wget http://plugapps.com/os/pogoplug/uboot/nanddump chmod +x nanddump ./nanddump -nf backup/mtd0 /dev/mtd0 ./nanddump -nf backup/mtd1 /dev/mtd1 ./nanddump -nf backup/mtd2 /dev/mtd2 umount /dev/sda1 Tags How to add tags kirkwood, gt32Flash, 128RAM, GigabitEthernet, 1NIC, 0WNIC, no switch, USB, 4USB, JTAG, ARM, ARMv5, ARM926EJ-S, crypto This website uses cookies.
