Hi everybody,
I'm currently trying to get a Netgear DM111P modem to boot an alternate kernel -- console access is fine,
I get to the prompt, but it seems I just can't boot anything over TFTP.
With a MIPS32 ELF image:
CFE> r 192.168.0.2:/tftpboot/DM111P-vmlinux
0x80010000/1469200 *** command status = -17
CFE>
If I try a "raw" image, it seems CFE doesn't recognize it and tries to decompress it:
CFE> r 192.168.0.2:/tftpboot/DM111P-vmlinux.raw
Retry loading it as a compressed image.
Loading 192.168.0.2:/tftpboot/DM111P-vmlinux.raw ...
Finished loading 1618054 bytes
Code Address: 0x00000000, Entry Address: 0x00000000
Failed on decompression. Corrupted image?
*** command status = 1618054
CFE>
I couldn't find anything on the CFE command status -17 -- any ideas ?
