I actually have two of these with the same issue. These are brand new out of box Pogoplug Mobile devices that I finally had time to open and try and set up, hoping to enable SSH and eventually install Samba. I have been scouring these forums but I can't seem to get past this first hurdle, Sorry if I am missing something obvious.
Problem: Both Pogoplugs just start up and eventually go to a solid red LED. I realize that this is probably because Pogo's servers are now offline and the devices can't call home.
I never get a # prompt after the kernel loads, it just ends with XCE: XCE: LED -> DISCONNECTED.
So I thought I would try to interrupt u-boot at the "Hit any key to stop autoboot:" line but I can't seem to interrupt the boot no matter what key I press. I never get the u-boot prompt so I can't print out the environment variables.
I have attached a serial connection (soldered to board) and am using a PL2303HX TTL to USB adapter purchased on ebay. In Putty and I am getting output so I know the TXD and RXD lines are not reversed.
Does anyone have an idea what might be happening here? I have verified via multimeter that the TX and RX and Ground from the USB adapter are making a good connection. I have set Baud rate to 115200, N,8,1 No flow control.
Here is the output I get in Putty:
