[Elphel-support] Elphel Flashing/Reboot problems

[Oleg K Dzhimiev]

Paul,

Did you have any output when the camera had 192.168.0.200? I'm trying to
think what else can be done...

Today I tried erasing mtd0 with flash_eraseall - but was able to recover
with prod353.

Could you also try:
0. 'cd' to the folder where you built the firmware. There's a netboot
script.

1. ./netboot -d eth0 -mac 000E64000000 -ip 192.168.0.9 -nfs
192.168.0.15:/nfs/latest80
-cmd boot ("/usr/local/sbin" should contain cmdline,etraxfsboot & netboot -
in case the scriptexits before the 2nd step)

2. Put the camera into the netboot-mode and check the serial output (can
take up to 30 secs)

3. Try 1 & 2 with but with "-cmd all" - reflash

> -cmd all


Best regards,
Oleg
