I've tried flashing some LX816 boards thought the webinterface - and
sometimes it failes.
To me, it is completely random... Sometimes it works - sometimes it
failes.

Anyway - this is basely what I see in my browser:

Preparing system for upgrade ...
Starting run level 4 (stop most daemons) ...
Waiting for run level 4 to start ...
Run level 4 started.
Waiting for run level 4 to finish ...
Run level 4 finished.
Stopping some remaining processes.
   sending TERM signal ...
Most processes stopped.
The file system will be factory default before reboot.
Unmounting file system /var ...
   umount /var failed with exit status: 1
Unmounting file system /mnt/flash ...
Receiving new firmware ...
No HWID in bootblock, continuing anyway.
Erasing old file system ...

  29%   30%   31%   33%   34%   35%   36%   37% 


The last "Loading new file system ..." does not fail on the same
percent always... Some times it's less and other times it gets further.

So - what could be causing this behavior?

When the flashing has failed, I often need to use the LAN flash method
- to make them work again.
As far as I can see, the entire firmware image is transfered to the
board - and checked - before flashing... is that correct?

It's a real pain having to LAN flash them - since some boards are
located more then 50km frem where I am...
