The 'erase' comamnd gives the same error. Why is it looking for '/dev/flash11' though - shouldn't it be /dev/flash0 ?

It's fine - checked & rechecked, and loaded OK in another card engine

Checked on meter - sitting pretty at 3.3V

Er, can't do this because the board doesn't have LoLo in it, and BoLo 1.1.1 doesn't have the 'ls' command. This is what I'm actually asking.... how can I get LoLo back into the card engine.
>>From what I understand you have two development kits, one that >>works and one that doesn't. Compare the output for both commands. >>Is anything different?
Can't do 'ls' comand on the problem board. See answer above.

IT WORKED !!! Using the JTAG and the RAM debug images I updated BoLo to 1.2 and was able to blow LoLo back in.
What worries me though is why BoLo 1.1.1 on hardware Rev C1 just refused to work? We're going to be ordering about 400 of these things a year, and finding out information is like pulling teeth!
Can we do this under the 8 hours support with our 2nd zoom development kit?
