Hi,

I have a eSata sheevaplug that worked fine for the last year. Suddenly on the last reboot it does not boot anymore on SDCard hanging with that message constantly repeated.


Code:
udevd[609]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[609]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[609]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
...
udevd[609]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
udevd[609]: unable to receive ctrl connection: Function not implemented
...

I read here http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=5865.0 that giving that I upgraded to wheezy I should upgrade my kernel (using http://www.plugcomputer.org/plugforum/index.php?topic=5868.0 for example).

Problem is that I can't boot so I can't upgrage. So my question is 'is there a fresh install of preconfigured SDCard that I could download in ordre to put on my sdcard anywhere ?'

Thanks

There are SD card images here. Use the eSATA images, or the newer all images, but for an eSATA plug you must set arcNumber to 2678 in order to use the all images.

SD cards can go bad; they experience wear and do not have infinite lifetimes. You could try booting from NAND, mount the SD card, and investigate / fix the problem. Certainly you can upgrade the kernel that way.

So... I failed to fix directly the problem on SD Card.

I will write image on SD Card. Just a question : images on the website are full SDCard image (/dev/sdb for example) or just rootfs partition image (/dev/sdb2) ?

Thanks again.

The link is not working, correct one is:
