He there,
I have an AR430W that I previously had FonFlashed to Gargoyle several years ago. Now I'd like to update it to a newer firmware and I'm having trouble getting FonFlash to work. I'm still using Linux, now Mint 12, and the same procedure as before, except that I had to turn off the network-manager so that eth0 stays up during the boot process. The error I'm getting is:

Code: Select all

Peer MAC: 00:1d:6a:be:f3:4e
Peer IP : 192.168.1.1
Your MAC: 00:ba:be:ca:ff:ee
Your IP : 192.168.1.0

Setting IP address...
ip_addr -l 192.168.1.1/8 -h 192.168.1.0

No RedBoot prompt. Exit in line 636

I'm using the current FonFlash from http://www.gargoyle-router.com/download ... bit.tar.gz

Any ideas?

There was a special version of fon flash made for that router?

So, I downloaded and compiled the latest version of fon-flash. Then I downloaded the older version of gargoyle that had been working and tried a flash. Things looked like they went well, but failed.

Setting boot_script_data...
fis load -l vmlinux.bin.l7
exec

Done. Restarting device...

However, connecting to the device by either port does not give me an IP address: DHCP fails. Setting the IP and Gateway manually fails as well.

*sigh*
Now what?
