I had archlinux running on my pogoplug b04 oxnas. Now the usb thumdrive died, since support for arch is gone I wanted to give debian a try and extracted the varkey rootfs tar file on a formatted ext3 partition with label rootfs and set to active. The pogoplug blinks and after a few seconds gives a solid green led, but I can't find it in the the network on my router. I don't have a serial cable so can't see how it boots. Any ideas?
