cRio Kernel Error/Reboots

[Marc P.]

The plot thickens...

At our meeting tonight the first thing we tried was booting the cRio with the NoApp switch toggled, and it still rebooted. We powered up the circuit breaker, after 15-20 seconds the classmate status showed "No Robot Code," and a split second later changed to "No Robot Communication." Just before "No Robot Code" appeared, the Robot Signal Light blinked 5 times, then stayed off as the classmate status changed to "No Robot Communication."

After doing the safe mode/format/reboot/re-image/reboot cycle again, we tried loading default/stock tank drive code from a fresh install of Wind River on a different laptop, and the result was the same- code loaded fine, but after the first reboot the same problem occurred, even cold booting with the NoApp switch.

Is there anything else we can try?
