Re: [ts-7000] Re: Can't execute Linux - invalid entry address

[Jason Stahls <>]

?  That doesn't make sense...  fis load simply reads the kernel image from flash...  HOw old is this 7200?  It could have a failing flash chip, have you tried loading a kernel from TFTP or the CF card?  The 7200 is almost unbrickable so long as you don't overwrite redboot.

Hi,

I did the command that you have recommended. After that, I lost the Redboot prompt and could never get it back.

Serial communications seem be lost at the moment.

Thanks,

Kamran

Did you do

fis load vmlinux

at the redboot prompt before the exec line?
