Hi all, a while ago i posted this message: /Hi all, my problem is that i cannot connect to my gumstixboard(combined with netMMC) via ethernet since i did a "ifconfig eth0 down". I didn't change any files. After reboot the ethernet is still down(auto is enabled). The board is alive, as i can "l2ping" it via bluetooth. To login via bluetooth i have to change settings first which i cannot make as long as i am not able to login to it. Any suggestions? /I got 1 reply saying that i should try the /"mmc uboot factory reflash trick"./ Read about it here: http://docwiki.gumstix.org/U-Boot#Gumstix-factory.script I followed the instructions but didn't succeed. Is there a way to establish a connection to my Connex 400bt and login into it, or does it only fit for a knacker's yard anymore? Anyone out there who can help? Greets Jendrik |

So, running ifconfig isn't persistent, so I don't see how that could cause anything to happen across a reboot. I think that you're now at the point where the only way you're going to recover is to connect up a daughtercard which gives you serial port access so that you can get right into the console. -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |

Would a GPSstix provide serial connection? |

You'll need a 3.3v serial adapter though. <http://docswiki.gumstix.com/Serial_adapters> You want to connect up the FFUART port. -- Dave Hylands Vancouver, BC, Canada http://www.DaveHylands.com/ |
