the boot is updated 3.0, i updated 6 times

i have no log of the upgrade of the boot


i think the boot is not being updated

there any way to know if the boot has been updated from a BH 1.6.5 for example?

You can verify the update date only via serial connection whe box boots.

I did a DUO Boot loader update, after that the box is dead now i have a red light only...

The update went well, the front panel declared, "remove usb and reboot", i removed usb and turn off the power switch.......

This is only what i get now from Putty:

Code:
BCM73350010
012
Shmoo Version=1.9
 
MEMC-00000000 RW=00000010 WW=00000047 G=00000001 R=00000008 W=00000013
MEMC-00000001 RW=0000000E WW=00000051 G=00000001 R=00000009 W=00000004 #$
3
COPY CODE
A567

Any ideas?

What happened?

and I used this: http://www.vuplus-community.net/board/attachments/duo_cfe_3_0_usb-zip.4669/

Can't be right? Shall I try again? It only took seconds to load the new cfe....

Hi,

Same output here. I'm on a BH 1.6.6 and I wanted to upgrade to the latest version. But first, I wanted to make sure everything is OK. Then I re-checked CFE upgrade (already done since I've got a BH 1.6.6) and I got:

# cat /proc/mtd
dev: size erasesize name
mtd0: 07600000 00020000 "rootfs"
mtd1: 00400000 00020000 "kernel"
mtd2: 00200000 00020000 "boot"
mtd3: 00100000 00020000 "cfe"
mtd4: 00080000 00020000 "mac"
mtd5: 00080000 00020000 "env"
mtd6: 00100000 00020000 "nvm"
So mtd2 size differs from the "right one" (4M). BUT if you see the first post, strictly speaking, that would be OK, since it says boot: 2M.
BTW, no problems so far with BH 1.6.6.
Is there something wrong?
Thanks a lot.
DUO Boot loader update
Increase update file size up to 128M Bytes
Change the flash memory map (kernel size : 4M, /boot : 2M)

New CFE allow your box to flash newest images.
If you have updated CFE, you can flash any image.

Ok. Thanks. But What is the right configuration size? 2M (like mine) or 4M? If it's 4M How can I configure that?

Thanks again.

My boot also shows mtd2: 00200000 00020000 "boot", why not mtd2: 00400000 00020000 "boot"?
even though I downloaded the latest cfe and are now on BH 2.0.3.
