I am in desperate need to get help regarding this. I had previously installed an ARCH system on a pogoplug 4 successfully. I purchased another pogoplug off the ebay. It came used and bricked unfortunately. I got refund though so no worries there but seller didnt want it back.
I got curious. I established a serial connection to it. From research here I found out previous owner tried to flash on top of 2011 U-boot.
I tried to load 2017 U-boot but messed up right when I was about to flash boot environment. Due to unexpected mousepad touching, it copied some commands/output from previous code and it got put into it :(
After further research, I was able to make a debian rootfs USB and it is able to boot from it. Then I tried to use Qui's guide to install archlinux on it but it couldn't find mmcblk0 and I had to stop.
My question is that if there is any way to restore it in a way that I can boot it from sdcard. I plan to use it as samba server and transmission torrents.
Following are the boot logs. First is without usb and second one is with usb. I am putting it different posts just to keep things clear
