[Elphel-support] How to unbrick the camera?

[niknah]

Hi, does any know how to unbrick the 353L camera?

I had installed a non-working kernel into the camera.  So it doesn't start
any more.
But I can't put a new working kernel into it.
Using elphel_8.2.8

I am...
* Toggling power 5 times until lights appear.
* Run "netboot .... -cmd rw", I get a JUMP response.  (Tried "-cmd update"
too)
* Wait 3 minutes(orange light is still on).
* Camera does not respond to ping or send nfs requests to the server.
* So I toggle power 5 times, run "-cmd boot",   Doing a -cmd boot without
toggling the power just get stuck at "Starting boot..."
* Still no response.

I've tried other nfs servers too, no response.  The
mnt/flash/etc/reflash.conf points to the correct ip address.  But I can't
ping the camera so it may not be getting up to that stage.

I had used reflash.php via the web before and it was working, but not
"netboot"


Thank you.




./netboot -d eth0 -mac 000E04081B2C 192.168.0.119:/nfs/latest80 -ip
192.168.0.9 -cmd rw
