But now i found the solution! i had forgotten to upload it with the same parameter "rz -b", so that's why it didn't accept it. Uploading right now, 45min left. Hopefully it gets the PU back alive so i can concentrate on the lost password reset, btw. do you have any hints on that one? Thanks a lot for a great page and much info of the CMC, there isn't too much info on it anywhere! :-) Fri, 21 Oct 2011 15:36:20 +0200 http://blog.wodkamelone.de/archives/96-guid.html#c993 http://blog.wodkamelone.de/archives/96-Spass-mit-der-Rittal-CMC-TC-PUII.html#c992 http://blog.wodkamelone.de/archives/96-Spass-mit-der-Rittal-CMC-TC-PUII.html#comments http://blog.wodkamelone.de/wfwcomment.php?cid=96 nospam@example.com (ixs) I see. You cannot directly write via zmodem to the /dev/mtdblock4 file. You have to upload it to /tmp or so first. And then you can "cat /tmp/mtdblock4 > /dev/mtdblock4".

The mtdblock4 is still there but it's erased/corrupted. I'm connected through serial, and yes, it boots up to U-Boot and BusyBox shell when i use the setenv commands. I've tried uploading a new mtdblock4 with hyperterminal, and the upload box just blinks quickly and goes away, in other words it doesn't upload anything. Now i downloaded another terminal program, and it also doesn't upload the mtdblock4. It though gives me a little bit more detailed error: "receiver wants to skip this file".

I haven't played around with our CMC-TC in quite some time so please take my suggestions as purely theoretical advice. First: What do you mean with bricked? If only the mtdblock4 is gone, nothing of value was lost. This filesystem should have only configuration files on it and anything missing can be easily regenerated. Can you see the PUII actually booting and can you get a boot shell via the serial interface? If this is the case, you can use /usr/bin/rz to transfer your image to /tmp and then cat that to mtdblock4. If hyperterm can't do Z-Modem, use another terminal program. If you cannot even boot the PUII unit, you can possibly flash the mtdblock via the bootloader. I never tried that but it should be possible. Or alternatively, which is what I'd do is to grab an OpenWRT image or build one for the machine and then network boot the box. Get a decent userland on there and then do the work from a network-booted Linux system. cheers, andreas Fri, 21 Oct 2011 10:30:05 +0200 http://blog.wodkamelone.de/archives/96-guid.html#c990 http://blog.wodkamelone.de/archives/96-Spass-mit-der-Rittal-CMC-TC-PUII.html#c989 http://blog.wodkamelone.de/archives/96-Spass-mit-der-Rittal-CMC-TC-PUII.html#comments http://blog.wodkamelone.de/wfwcomment.php?cid=96 nospam@example.com (Scott) Hello! Really interesting write-up, i learned a lot! I'm working on a bricked Processing unit, the mtdblock4 is gone and i've fetched a new one from a working PU, the question is, how do i upload the new 'mtdblock4' to the device? Hyperterminal wont send anything to the device with Zmodem?! Second question is about passwords. I've forgotten my HTML login password on one of the boxes. Which file on the device keeps user information stored, and is it possible to owerwrite with another file from a working device?

And the point of my post is the lackluster approach to this release. Of course you can claim that this is only an Alpha release and the GA will be much better. Based on past performance I am not buying it. Alpha generally meant at least a certain stage of feature-completeness has been reached and only bug-fixing and minor integration work is going on. Yet this time, there's much more than just "minor" work needed.

You ran the Alpha in a virtual machine - so you got the fallback mode of GNOME 3, not the Shell experience most users are intended to receive. The fallback mode was not very polished for the Alpha; it's substantially better in post-Alpha code but that all landed after the Alpha freeze. You could try simply running 'yum update' and rebooting, would that really be so hard? The release criteria for Alpha are (intentionally) minimal, by the way, and even the fallback mode as implemented in the Alpha does not fail them. It's an _Alpha_. We don't expect it to be finished.

The alternative is to pre-download everything needed, but that is hard work... Alternatively, see if one of the images at http://downloads.openwrt.org/backfire/10.03.1-rc4/ar71xx/ will work.
