Re: error upgrading firmware
Hmmm, that "N/A" for the "Current FW version on flash:" is a bit worrying. Next thought, is that command you're quoting correct? It kind of looks like you've doubled up the options or the command or...

The cross-over cable thing should help with this. It's because opensmd will only attach to (and use) one port on a server. By default it attaches to the first port of the first card it finds. Port 0...
