3137.0. "How can we erase PaketProbe's flash by software?" by LISVAX::ALVES () Tue Jan 09 1996 10:13

Hi,

Can anyone tell us how can we erase a PaketProbe's flash by software,
because we have download a wrong version (n3220.s in step of n3210.s)

Thanks in advance for your time and cooperation

Best regards 

Jorge Alves

	Why not simply reload it with the correct version which will overwrite the incorrect version?
3137.2	Because it seems to be impossible...	LISVAX::ALVES		`Tue Jan 09 1996 12:13`	12
	Hi Thanks for your reply, but unfortunately after I've loaded the version ns3220.s only Token Ring Interface is available and there isn't any Token Ring installed at our office. Thanks again for your time Best regards Jorge Alves

	Well, try this. Start a downline load. When it says that it's writing the flash, power it down which corrupts the flash. Then, it should be brain-dead and start using the built-in software which should be the original Ethernet software. Now, this is just a THEORY. However, if you can contact Jack NAC::FORREST, he could tell you whether this procedure will produce the desired action.
