E02 bricked - how to rescue (9 replies)

Greetings all.

Although there is a wealth of information available in these pages I am stuck and need some help.

I have a Pogoplug E02 which I purchased cheaply off Ebay knowing it was bricked as the seller stated.

When received I confirmed it would not boot and opened it up and connected a serial cable to try to get uboot access. Nothing ever comes up in the terminal screen.

Next I connected a crossover ethernet cable and checked to see if I could get a connection to ping without success.

The behavior of the Pogoplug when hooked up to an otherwise non-networked PC is to make an ethernet connection, green light on ethernet port comes on and remains on, and seemingly stops there. The light on the front never flashes at all at any point.

When hooked up to my home network the ethernet port light shows activity by flashing both the green and yellow light but the link never stabilizes. But again the front led never flashes at all at any point.

Is there a way, other than JTAG which I don't have, to unbrick this Pogoplug?

Any guidance would be much appreciated.

Thank you, Tim
