Hi All
Having a cloudbox (white) with 3Tb disk. Several years ago the disk started to crash with lot of bad blocks so the device was not in use.
And now I've decided to update the firmware to fvdw-sl
First I've tried with an old Disk and went with installing new firmware (Kirkwood-171 - cloudbox). the installation process failed (most probably due to bad blocks). and then I made reboot -f.
And that's it. The device stopped to receive an IP from DHCP. The Mac-address is not appearing in ARP anymore.
Tried contacting directly to the laptop (192.168.1.148 on the laptop) but no chance. nothing in ARP.
U-boot is stuck on "waiting for U-boot".
Looks like I've bricked the device. I do have my USB-TTL cable, but I don't find how to use that in that case.
I'm sure this was on the forum but I'm failing to find. Please help?
