Dead Omega: failed to execute 'bootcmd'



  • Hey, got my onion this week, booted it up through the wifi interface and everything seemed rosy as it went through the download/update of firmware, then my internet started dropping in and out and it froze the onion. On rebooting it fails to run bootcmd and then the script freezes.

    The light on the onion stays on continuously, even when holding reset for ten seconds
