6900 corrupt flash ?

[sailsoft]

Has anyone found a flash recovery procedure for the 6900 already ?

I am trying to upgrade some new 6900's, and 2 of them show scary errors during the filecopy of the new Tos.img from USB to flash.

Errors like :

[ 919.107707] end_request: I/O error, dev sda, sector 231334

Anyone seen this before and know how to resolve them ?

Never had that.
Does it occur with USB only or as well when you use ftp/scp? I had variuos problems with USB drives (being some giveaways, not "specified ALU ones") so check that.

There is a Trescue.img that you can get from support, but if the problems persist: open a Ticket.
