If I fail to upgrade using R1/R3 FW or if it creashes, would I be able to go back to 01.11.04 on HD2? Or is it going to brick the HD2?
One more thing, links provided
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=88 and
viewtopic.php?f=12&t=98 are for boot code 17 and earlier (and boot code 17 to 23). Mine is on boot ocde 26, so can I try instructions mentioned there?
So, is it OK to try the following by downloading 01.12.04b FW for R1/R3?
1. put install.img into usb flash drive, formatted in fat filesystem
2. telnet device and type command
echo " " | dd of=/dev/mtdblock/0 bs=2048 seek=8192
3. put usb flash drive into usb port and type reboot in telnet session
Manipulation - I mean unpack image, introduction of changes and pack.
Yes, you right. Just such a sequence of flashing.
