I need to reflash. Where can I get the image?
Hi guys I ve managed to brick my Iliad while trying to install the FBReader registry patch. The outcome is a black screen, a white stripe with the icons at the bottom and an everblinking green light. I understand that there is a reflash from CF function on 2.11. I have 2.11 and I have a flash card but I believe I need an image to put there to boot from. Is it the cf-card-contents.zip file I should be looking for? If yes is there a link I can download it from or do I have to request it from iRex? If not where I can get an image? Any Help will be greatly appreciated. |

Vielen Dank Herr Tribble.
(and that is all the German I know apart from "Ein Bier Bitte" I must learn how to say "keep 'em coming") |

The sticky thread How to unbrick (reflash, restore, etc) your iLiad in the iLiad Software Releases section describes the flashing. This may helps.

So the reflash worked out fine -phew! - but after that, the Iliad downloaded two huge software upgrades. Am I to assume that the reflash is version 2.10 and everything after that needs to be obtained via upgrade?
Is the latest version of the reflash image 2.11? Should I re-download or is there no point? |

Correction
Damn - reflash did not work out ok.
After downloading the software upgrade, it's back to almost finishing boot-up, black screen with toolbar, flickering LED. What the hell? Edit: Problem solved, thanks Adam B. & Tribble! Last edited by The GreatGonzo; 01-17-2008 at 05:31 PM. |
