SG300 Bootloader update failing

[yscheiwiller]

Hi 

i just got a SG300-10, and i tried updating the firmware and the bootloader.

now im stuck with this:
SW version    1.3.7.18 ( date  12-Jan-2014 time  18:02:59 )
Boot version    1.1.0.6 ( date  11-May-2011 time  18:31:00 )
HW version    V02

i tried to update it via the webinterface and CLI booth without any changes.

these are the ressources i used while upgrading:

Hello,

There is currently a problem with the bootcode files available on the website.  I just went and tried to download the bootcode and it tried to tell me it was some 30 MB file.  The appropriate people have been notified, and the problem should be corrected soon.

In the meantime I have attached the correct bootcode to my post, feel free to use that.

Hope that helps, and sorry for the inconvenience,

Hi Chrebert,

I was struggling to update the boot code on my SG300-10 until I came across your post.

Your attached boot code worked for me

Thanks

What am I doing wrong?  The file loads in to the switch, then I reboot.  Nothing.  Same boot loader version.

Help anybody.

4 years later and they still haven't uploaded the right version of the bootcode to the downloads section. Thank you for having the version that works!
