IBM N2800e manual Recovering the flash image

Recovering the flash image

You need a CompactFlash card with an N2800e (machine type 8364) flash image to complete this procedure. See “Creating a recovery CompactFlash card” on page 53 to create a recovery CompactFlash card.

1.Complete the procedure, “Removing the logic unit to install parts” on page 45 before continuing.

2.Insert the CompactFlash card into the CompactFlash connector.

3. Move the jumpers into configuration		.
Note: All systems ship with jumpers installed in
configuration	.

4.Power on the thin client.

This requires you to reconnect the power cable to the logic unit.

5.When the flash image has been re-flashed, the LED will flash green.

If the system LED is amber, or flashes amber, the flash image cannot be re-flashed. Try a different CompactFlash card with the N2800e (machine type 8364) flash image stored on it, or recreate the recovery CompactFlash card (see “Creating a recovery CompactFlash card” on page 53), and then repeat this procedure. If you are still unable to recover the flash image, replace the logic unit (see “Replacing the N2800e Thin Client Express CompactFlash card” on page 41).

6.Power off the system.

7.Remove the CompactFlash card from the connector.

8.Move the jumpers back into the default

configuration .

If you do not move jumpers back into configuration

,your thin client may not function properly.

9.See “Reassembling the thin client” on page 45.
