Classmate Reimage

Hello all,

We are having trouble reimaging our 2010 Classmate PC. When we try to boot from the flash drive imaging program, we are presented with a gray flashing underscore for a few minutes, proceeded by nothing.

We have done nothing to our flash drive image. We have the boot order of our Classmate set up properly. We've searched for hours for a fix to no avail.

Also note: We can't access the files on the flash drive itself. Windows requests to format the drive, while Linux can't read the filesystem...

All help appreciated.
- Buddy

Re: Classmate Reimage

If you only saw that underscore it means the flashdrive didn't properly boot possibly from corruption. Since you also can't even read the flashdrive, this hints farther towards possibility of corruption.

You should probably try and get the image from onlinethen put it on a different flashdrive that you know works or borrow another team's flashdrive.

Re: Classmate Reimage

We were able to borrow team 2068's flash drive to reimage our computer. It worked really well, and our driver station is now fully operational.

Thanks for the advice.
