Netinstall on RB493G wants to install wrong package

Mon Jun 20, 2016 2:50 pm

Hello,
I want to Netinstall last 6.35.4 package on my RB493G board, but netinstall wants to use package for smips architecture instead of mipsbe.
Any idea what can be wrong?
Also each time board is connected to netinstall its software-id changes. Is it normal?

Thanks
Pavel

You can freely select what packages will be netinstalled. It's not about what netinstall wants.

How to force netinstall to use different package?
When I select connected board all mipsbe packages disapears and only smips package is there.
I think it is not a good idea to try flash package for different architecture.

Have you tried the browse button and navigated to the folder where correct mipsbe packages are placed?

It seems there is some hw problem with flash chip, it is also not possible to upgrade board firmware, the upgrade process finishes ok
but it is not written to flash.
