SRM aside. Gerald was saying that "CCCC...." indicates that no boot-able
media was found. if "we" stop and think about this for a minute multiple
situations can cause this issue. Not least of which is physical sdcard
bracket is loose, and the media over time got screwed inside of it.

I've had this happen to me for inexplicable reasoning. I've taken the
sdcard out, blown it off, and have had it immediately start working again.
Why ? No idea . . .
