Again; Dear Gerald ;
I sure to pull the USB CDROM cqble and reinsert
when pause a few seconds at "loading /sbin/loader".
but no info box "loading USB storage driver".
Any way;
I bought a "USB floppy disk", and tested GS14_B5121_119.zip.
But another problem came up.
Followings are guide of "Flash Text.txt". Would you advice me ?
My XP cannot execute "format a:/s" of step 3).
So, I executed it on GUI. After that, the floppy media contains 800 KBytes.
Then, I cannot execute step 6), because flashabl.rom is 1,026 Kbytes.
1) Prepare a writable floppy. (NOTE ALL data on that disk
WILL BE ERASED)
2) Insert floppy into drive a:
3) Execute [format a:/s]
4) Save the three attachments to a local directory.
(ph.bat Phlash16.exe, flashabl.rom)
5) Change to that local directory.
6) Execute [copy *.* a:]
7) Boot from the floppy.
8) Execute ph
9) reboot system when you finished and verify the new verion number on
the boot up screen.
Note: Flash tool must be phlash16.exe attached with release
package.
Please advice me what should I execute the "Phlash16.exe" ?
