Hi Jud,

I had issues with reformating using a new image and only got round this by Telnet to the box using DCC and using formate the HDD . Do a DF list and you should see your drive make sure .

Good luck

You using flash tool 1.02 usb cable to reflash the box with a new image .
I had all sorts of issues changing between images E1 to NLB and went back to my original image and hard disk worked fine .

hdd

ive chaucked f---- on mine for the time being , i did the factory reset and that did nothing ,
i think POSSIBLY it could be an issue regards xp and win 7 as ive had similar problems with other things eg memory cards, pc hdd's not being recognised by each other .
my first images was flashed using xp pro and this latest image was flashed using win 7.
ill try again in a couple of weeks with xp when ive more time.

Hi,

This is the same problem as I had when moving to differnt images . HDD issues . The only way is to format using Telnet rather than using the image to format . I have end back on my original image after a lot of work and found the first image was best ! BMT image is fast and no crashes

Cheers
