Hello leolaohoo
I turned on the switch and I posted the dir flash:
As you can see I had some issues that lead me to format the flash (for one more time)
I was surprised to notice that this time the format worked! I have been unsuccessfully trying to format the flash the previews week.
Then I decided to send the file again and this time it was successfully send. The switch now is ok
below is the console output:
