Hi all,
I've just got a new ts7300.  I'm  familiar with the ts7250 (we have a
new product that includes it), but I'm just started trying to make the
SD flash for a boot image.

I've downloaded the fast boot image, and I think I've put it on a
card.  It's a 256MB card as suggested in the instructions, and the
card compares properly (at least for the first piece of it).

 ~]# dd if=fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd of=/dev/sde1
488448+0 records in
488448+0 records out
 ~]# dd if=/dev/sde1 of=compare.dd 
499611+0 records in
499611+0 records out
 ~]# ls
-rw-r--r--  1 andy andy 255800832 Oct 26 23:28 compare.dd
-rw-rw-r--  1 andy andy 250085376 Oct 26 23:11
fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd
 ~]# cmp compare.dd fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd
cmp: EOF on fastboot-7300-sdcard-7-6-2006.dd

Notice that the card is slightly bigger than the fastboot image--don't
know if that's causing a problem or not.

I put the SD card in the left slot (between the jumper and the power
blocks).  I think this is the correct slot (although I've tried both). 

However, I get no sign of recognition from the TS-SDBOOT; I just get
the boot message over and over again, so it clearly isn't recognizing
the image.

I'm using the SanDisk ImageMate 5-in-1 reader (SDDR-99 v4), which I
load via "/sbin/modprobe usb-storage" to create the /dev/sde1 device
on my system.  I know that this is the right device, because 1) it
doesn't appear unless the SD is plugged into the SanDisk reader, and
2) it blinks red when I read/write the card with dd.

Any thoughts as to what to do next to diagnose the problem?
