Digitalia Posted June 11, 2012 Share Posted June 11, 2012 Greetings! I just got a Pineapple Mark IV and I ended up running out of space on it (can't save any settings or changes). I formatted a 4 GB USB key to a 3GB Ext4 partition and a 1GB Swap and the pineapple recognizes it, but symlinks don't seem to solve the issue. I'm running the latest firmware (2.3.1) and I'm trying to do a reset and... it's not working. I've tried the reset button on the bottom, I've tried doing it from the web interface, no joy any way. Right this second I have it in recovery mode (I can telnet in via 192.168.1.1), and maybe I'm being derptarded, but I don't see a reset script. The pineapple is NOT bricked. I just want to Etch-A-Sketch this bad boy and start fresh. tl;dr: How do I restore the pineapple to stock settings (wiping everything)?

Digitalia Posted June 11, 2012 Author Share Posted June 11, 2012 (edited) follow the shmoocon instructions http://cloud.wifipineapple.com/index.php?flashing In the immortal words of Joe Esposito: "You're the best". Now if only I could figure out how to get the swap to work. I'm following the directions from here: http://forums.hak5.org/index.php?showtopic=25882&st=0&p=198228&hl=ext4&fromsearch=1entry198228 , and it's mounting my USB, but when I issue the "mkswap /dev/sda2" command and rebooting, "free" still shows 0 0 0 for swap. It's a hard knock life. EDIT: Disregard that last bit. My common sense was eaten by a grue and I forgot to enable the swap mount in fstab. You're still my hero.

It's a hard knock life. does your fstab look like config global automount option from_fstab 1 option anon_mount 1 config global autoswap option from_fstab 1 option anon_swap 1 config mount option target /usb option device /dev/sda1 option fstype ext4 option options rw,sync option enabled 1 option enabled_fsck 0 config swap option device /dev/sda2 option enabled 1 and when you ssh in can you brows to "cd /usb/" and try making a file like "touch test.txt" then "ls" to see the contents.
