DockStar u-boot for Debian USB stick
For the new Debian wheezy version 7 it needs also an actual U-Boot monitor.
U-Boot 2012
At the beginning of 2012 Jeff Doozan brought out a new U-Boot monitor, which is needed for the version 3.2 kernel.
U-Boot 2012 Installation
The entry is the web page Update uBoot on your Dockstar, GoFlex, or Pogoplug. Connect via SSH to the device. Then run the following commands:
$ cd /tmp $ wget http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/install_uboot_mtd0.sh $ chmod +x install_uboot_mtd0.sh $ ./install_uboot_mtd0.sh
The installation script does the following:
- explains the rules for the update.
- installs a few utilities.
- checks for the installed u-boot version.
download the file http://jeff.doozan.com/uboot/valid-uboot.md5
- with the platform name select the actual u-boot file from the .md5 file:
next download this file and verify with the md5 number.
- then program u-boot to flash ROM and verify it.
last some environment parameters are copied to the new environment.
especially the arcNumber is taken care about, please see DockStarKernelBuild#Arc_number.
It is surprising, how much intelligence can be put in such a script, thank you Jeff.

Utilities, blparam
Introduction
Blparam was included in the Pogoplug 2.0 update. Blparam both displays and allows you to change the U-Boot parameter block stored in NAND flash. Any changes that you make to the boot parameters will take effect on the next reboot. If you make any changes to the parameters that cause the Pogoplug to not boot, you will need a serial cable to recover the device.
Note: Blparam only exists on the stock Pogoplug firmware, not Plugbox Linux. You also need a working plug to use it, so if your is bricked, you'll need to make a serial cable.
Installation of blparam
The programm must be downloaded first.
-bash-3.2# cd /sbin -bash-3.2# mount -o rw,remount / # make flash writeable -bash-3.2# wget http://plugapps.com/os/pogoplug/uboot/blparam -bash-3.2# chmod 755 ./blparam -bash-3.2# mount -o remount,ro / # make flash readonly
Usage
Blparam is located in /sbin or originally /usr/local/cloudengines/bin/ in the Pogoplug 2.0 firmware.
And can be downloaded here.
If use without parameters it will show all set boot paramerters. The output is the same if using the serial console and typing printenv.
blparam
(no arguments)
Outputs all the u-boot parameters without changing them.

Arguments without a value are REMOVED from the parameter block (i.e. set to empty).
Arguments with a value are added or changed.Example (change the root partition to /dev/mtdblock3 and set it read-only on boot):
blparam "bootargs_root=root/dev/mtdblock3 ro"
