I've completely bricked u-boot on my PogoPlug v4 Mobile. I was attempting to upgrade it via serial + tftp, but clearly messed it up. Now, I'm getting literally no output from the serial connection, and no LED status (except for the ethernet port which can create a physical link).
I've been doing some searches on this forum as well as more generally on the web, and everything points to trying to use kwboot to recover from a failed flash. However, even this seems to get stuck. Specifically, I get stuck here:
kwboot is running on an Ubuntu 24.10 machine (bare metal) and I'm connected by a USB-serial adapter at /dev/ttyUSB0. Even when I unplug and reconnect the power on the Pogoplug, nothing changes -- it hangs indefinitely (spinning the cursor after "Please reboot the target...".
Is there any way to recover at this point? If not, no big loss -- got the device for free, but would still love to try.
Thanks!
