This is no ROMMON with Cheetah OS.
Once this part comes up, hit the ESC key within 5 seconds and the AP will drop into u-boot.

I think we strayed here.
I have a C9124AXD-B AP that I need to boot Rommon mode in an effort to fix a problem.
Hitting esc while consoled to the AP doesn't seem to work.
Looking for any info specific to this process to verify steps.

- @jtpntx Describe the problem (first) ; possibly there are other ways to fix it

AP flashes green, red amber continuous dispite repeated factory reset.
Instructions to fix this requires ROMMON boot.

- @jtpntx Instructions are wrong , that only means that the AP is not getting sufficient power ,
