## Unknown uBoot detected on mtd0: 9e81c7974406c57378e992f044e5a8ce
##
## The installer could not detect the version of your current uBoot
## This may happen if you have installed a different uBoot on
## /dev/mtd0 or if you have bad blocks on /dev/mtd0
##
## If you have bad blocks on mtd0, you should not try to install uBoot.
##
## Installation cancelled.

The script (install_uboot_mtd0.sh) ended with those lines when I ran it on a new pogoplug. Any suggestions on how to properly overcome this are welcome.

PS. I just received the pogoplug today, and I tried to ssh into the pogo plug without going to the website, but I was unable to find a way. When I logged into the pogoplug via the website, it stated that it was doing some update on the device. The update occurred before I could login via ssh and run the script. I do not know if it modified the bootloader.

The script install_uboot_mtd0.sh has the following line:

VALID_UBOOT_MD5=http://jeff.doozan.com/uboot/valid-uboot.md5

to retrieve need information. However, in the shell environment of a pogo or goflex, this url is 404'd or doesn't work.

Putting the url into my desktop browser, it redirects properly. With the new url, I change the line to:

VALID_UBOOT_MD5=http://projects.doozan.com/uboot/valid-uboot.md5

and the script works.

Sorry to have to use this way, but any other way to contact Jeff failed.

To the attention of Jeff Doozan

I am a member of your kirkwood devices forums at forum.doozan.com, but the forum has disappeared.

Proxies also return a blank site.

Can it be resurrected?

is it possible to load most recent uboot with the original device-built-in uboot?
this question does not point to pogo only, maybe also applicable to other development board. I hope to use original uboot burnt in the nand to load most recent uboot image located in sd card and then boot linux in sd card, is my thought feasible? thanks.
