Unable To Upload Jffs2 Image

[eitzenbe]

Hi,

I am totally lost (

I have an SL4 SimPad with old opie 1.2 on it. hh bootloader installed but whenever I enter "load root" and do a ymodem upload it bails out from minicom 2.3 rc with:

boot> load root
partition root is a jffs2 partition:
 expecting .jffs2 or wince_image.gz.
 After receiving file, will automatically uncompress .gz images
loading flash region root
using ymodem
ready for YMODEM transfer...
download error. aborting.                                                             |

file is from 2007.12 images

in my desparate i even flashed / erased the root partition so now I am ended up with no bootable device at all (bootloader IS WORKING)

Bootloader identifies itself as

Hi,
I believe this is the latest hh.org bootloader - you don't need to update it.

If you own a cf card you can try to copy it this should be the easiest way!

What does minicom report in the center as information about the ymodem process?

well it just shows a lot of (approx 6-8)  "?" left of the ymodem box where it should show something useful.

Hope this helps you anything I am lost )

best regards ET
