Error bad magic number

[wredin]

Hi, all.
First of all sorry for my English. I am Russian so I don't know English very well.

My old hard disk in ns2 died and I have bought the new one with 2TB.
Yeaserday, when I used fvdw-sl-5-0-3june2013 I got the error described here viewtopic.php?f=11&t=1273&start=10.
My telnet couldn't connect to ns 2.
I got the same message "bad magic number", trying to write this:

Code: Select all

setenv ipaddr ${ipaddr}
setenv serverip ${serverip}
tftpboot 0x800000 kernel-file-name-as-present in-tftp-folder
bootm 0x800000

When the new version of sl-console was released I tried to use it but when I run "Write fvdw-sl frimware image to disk" and choose UIMAGE, nothing happens, just after some time telnet runs and it can't connect to Lacie NS2.

Please help me with this problem.

kernel-file-name-as-present in-tftp-folder

:disapprove
this part in your command you must replaced by the actual file name of the kernel you want to load

Furthermore I just checked the writing to fvdw-sl firmware to disk feature on the fvdw-sl-console and it works fine
Be aware that if the telnet client con not connect that you try to use as ip 192.168.0.252 instead of 192.168.1.252 or the ip assigned by your dhcp server. Needles to say that the ip must be accessible in your LAN setup. If it uses another range then 192.168.1.x or 192.168.0.x then you need to use the ip assigned by the dhcp server

and I uploaded a new version of the console (5.1) but no change regarding writing firmware action in this new version

Thank you for your reply.
I ran this command and got this

if you use u-boot console to upload a kernel, like you try, then you must also first start the tftp server in the fvdw-sl console (choose action start tftp server)

Thank you again for your reply.

I started tftp server and now got the sign "Starting kernel..."

And this sign is still hanging and nothing happens again. I cant ping 192.168.20.20.

The sign

Also I switched off DHCP in my network

If I flash U-boot I Get such result. After rebooting it blinks red and blue all the time

What do I do wrong? Where is my mistake?

you are using ip range 192.168.20.x on your router then telnet can not reach 192.168.1.252 or 192.168.0.252
Also you switched off your DHCP server so the nws2 will not have a IP assigned by dhcp.
This means you cannot connect to the telenet server of the standalone kernel because you router will only allow access to ip's with 192.168.20.x
The standalone kernel can only be contacted with telnet by using 192.168.1.252 and 192.168.0.252 or then IP address assigned by DHCP server

You can do two things, switch on dhcp server on you router and let it assign an ip address to the nwsp2 and use that to connect with telnet after starting the standalone kernel
or change setting of you router to use 192.168.1.x or 192.168.0.x range for ip adresses
