I had a 4108gl fail to boot today after updated the firmware. It keeps going to benchmode.
Thoughts?

Re: what is benchmode?

Benchmode is a basic shell for if the OS fails to boot. You can try 'jp 2' or 'jp 1' which whill try to load either primary or secondary firmware.

If neither work, you can try loading the firmware again via Xmodem through benchmode.

Fail that, try a factory reset, fail that, have the chassis replaced.
