Restore original u-boot on Pogoplug-E02 that has Doozan chained mtd3 u-boot (1 reply)

Hi folks

I have a Pogoplug-E03 here that I used to run Debian on from a USB HDD. At the time I followed Jeff's guide to install a chainloaded newer U-boot on mtd3.

The Pogoplug has been sitting unused for a while as the HDD died.

Now I want to install OpenWRT on following their guide (see "file:///home/dermot/WIP/CloudEngines%20Pogoplug%20[OpenWrt%20Wiki].html").

I have not yet decided whether to use their mtd0 u-boot or to chain-load - their guide covers both situations.

However before I start I wanted to return the Pogoplug back to its original U-boot (without the Doozan one first). I have a console cable and so I powered up the Pogoplug to have a look at its current state. Attached is what I saw - the initial Doozan U-Boot, its "printenv" output then, then the chainload original U-boot and its "printenv" output.

So how should I proceed? Just follow the notes in the "Old: Restore old uBoot on mtd0" section of this doc "http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/"? Do I just need to restore the original u-boot and nothing else? what about u-boot variable settings, I assume they will need fixed afterwards.

BTW I have obscured the real MAC address and cesvcid (pogoplug's unique id?) in the console output.

Thanks in advance for help
