firmware_240105.upg bricked my MIST

Closed this issue · 2 comments

This might be just a one-off or I might have done something wrong, but I copied the firmware_240105.upg file as firmware.upd onto an SD card, picked 'Upgrade firmware' but it never completed after 10-20 minutes and had to powercycle the MIST. Now it doesn't boot.

I'm sure I'll be able to recover it through the ARM JTAG port (I haven't had time yet), but I thought I'd just report this in case it's a more general problem! When I do try that, I'll try putting the new firmware on directly and downgrade again, if that doesn't work.

Thanks for pointing me at that — I tend to get the updates by doing a git pull and so missed the update in the note. I also didn't check what the meaning of the intermediate file was!

I'll be more careful next time!
