When I'd bought the four ProCurve 2824 (J4903A) switches for our lab in 2010 I sought out the latest firmware images and applied them to the switches. Last week I discovered that I'd failed to correctly specify the boot partition of the new, updated firmware on one of those switches. So I corrected that last week. And that switch worked correctly for a week. And then it died this week! So that made me aware that I no longer have the I.10.77 firmware image in my repository - I only have versions I.10.43 & I.10.32 of the firmware. (I do still have a file named '08.26.09.img' in the respository [and that, incidentally, is the release date of I.10.77] and I believe that this file is the firmware:

But it's name is very different than the contents of the other firmware archives;

Is the I.10.77 firmware for the ProCurve 2824 still available somewhere?
