Hi All,



The device needs to be powered off and back on to come back from this hang.

I've setup the environment above to be able to boot into the still stock iconnect firmware (other 
than the re-flashed u-boot and my environment, of course) using the command "run 
flashload". This works after setting another environment variable "setenv machid 
692" so that I can get into the stock iconnect firmware. Strangely enough, the usb disk is NOT 
found by linux even in this environment!

I haven't re-created my entire old u-boot environment variable setings yet, but 
am suspicious that this anomalous usb behavior (even when booted) is somehow 
related to u-boot.

Incidently, without getting access to that disk, it will not be simple for me 
to find my (hopefully correct) version of the old, stock, u-boot binary. Is 
that lying around anywhere on the net?

Any advice as to how best to proceed would be greatly appreciated!

I have an iconnect with the new uboot on too, and the usb does seem more picky about some usb storage devices.

The disk should work in any other linux system and the way that I have recovered from this is to copy the uImage and uInitrd off on to a tftp server and just boot it with tftp.

When this happened to me I found that cleaning and reseating the usb connection helped but that might just be coincidence, I always use the single usb port for the boot device too this might make no difference mind.
