[Avila] Redboot fis error

[Ron Eisworth]

Ahmet,
Did you try a "fis unlock Redboot" ? Also, have you tried reloading the
stock image using the JTAG programmer?

If those don't work send me an email and we can issue and RMA for the board.

Regards,

Ron

Subject: [Avila] I have tried to unlock the specific section, did not work and then I
unlocked the whole flash, that did not work either. I am sending it back to
Gateworks.
