to recover a corrupt/blank EEPROM on a 5i24 6i24 7i24 or 6i25 board: need the latest mesaflash ver NOTE: must use --device 6i25 for this step! sudo ./mesaflash --device 6i25 --recovery --write flash.bit (example: 5i24_16_justio.bit) power cycle the board the leds should go out sudo ./mesaflash --device 5i24 --readhmid may return nothing both leds should be out now though sudo ./mesaflash --device 5i24 --verify 5i24_16_justio.bit should see: board configuration verified successfully next find 5i24 fallback in 5i24.zip and sudo ./mesaflash --device 5i24 --fallback --write fallback.bit you can write now standard hostmot2 bitfile the card will be fully reprogrammed sudo ./mesaflash --device 5i24 --write yourfile.bit sudo ./mesaflash --device 5i24 --verify yourfile.bit sudo ./mesaflash --device 5i24 --reload
