Now there is a warning NOT to use the fw_setenv that comes in Fedora, as
that would brick the pogo.  I am assuming that unless I change these

to boot off the usb will not change that?  If so how might I change what
addresses used for the netconsole now?

So at the moment I can't find the information on doozan.com, but it is there. For some reason cloud engines used a custom CRC algorithm to verify the integrity of the uboot environment variables. This has not been up streamed and is not in the version of uboot-utils that is shipped with fedora. The update uboot provided by doozan.com keeps this CRC method intact, I believe as a compatibility reason.

This is 6 month old memory though. I just know that at the time I took this very seriously and put the warning in the Fedora PogoPlug docs.

For now I am leaving it as is. I would LIKE to change the pogo's IP address out of my dhcp range to a static area. But that would change this netconsole setup, I think. And changing the dhcp settings will change where the notebook ends up. I suppose I could set the notebook and the pogo to get fixed addresses via dhcp from their MAC and move the dhcp range for now. Sigh so much to do.
