Two questions: 1. Is the flash card to be removed from the BP any time the firmware is being changed? If so, that's something I did not know, having left the card in while trying to update. 2. Will the new version of the software work with the old version of the firmware? Dale P.s>: Where can I get specific instructions about what to do and not to do in upgrading-updating the firmware? ----- Original Message ----- From: "LARRY SKUTCHAN" <lskutchan@xxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, June 05, 2004 11:59 AM Subject: [bookport] Re: Presently Unusable > You can do the following to get back to the previous firmware: > > Download www.aph.org/update/bpfw_1_0_4.bin > > Rename this file to bpfw._bb > > Copy that file to the root folder of flashcard > > Put the flashcard into Book Port > > Hit 2+B to reset > > The firmware update should start. > > > <<< r-carter@xxxxxxx 6/ 5 9:38a >>> > Hi Dale, > > Do you have another compact flash card that you could try to see if it=20 > works normally? > > Robert Carter > > At 07:27 AM 6/5/2004, you wrote: > > >I've tried everything I can think of to get my BP out of its chatter of > >alternately speaking the name of the default folder and "previous = > folder". > >It appears, also, that everything on the flash card has been erased, but = > the > >unit won't even accept a format command, so that I could know I'm = > starting > >clean.
