Hi all, I think I might have bricked a net5501.
I was having some trouble with getting a net5501 to boot off a CF card when I had an IDE HDD fitted. After some google'n I tried the following commands in the monitor set FLASH = Secondary reboot After about a minute nothing was happening so I pulled the power and plugged it back in. Since then the board has been nothing more than a malfunctioning set of traffic lights. If I power it up with no HDD or CF in it, I get the green power and red light on. If I pop a drive in it, the orange light stays on too. The lights don't blink or anything. I think the unit might be bricked. From what I have read online the net5501 doesn't offer a cmos clear option, like on a standard x86 desktop machine (I know embedded boxes a totally different beast). Is there any way I might be able to get this thing to boot again? btw I have tried various speeds for the serial connection and still nothing. Any help would be very much appreciated.
