If not, then you cannot reflash by yourself.
oh yes, as i mentioned, i also had various failsafes in place, like network access setup to quote with such situations - but all seemed to have failed.
i suspect its a fault with the internal memory, as i dont think its getting to runlevel 2.

thats the bit i didnt know about ... will try that when i get home

btw, what does the progress bar actually represent at the bottom?
is it just automatically increasing or is it really tracking the progess of the boot sequence.
.. i suspect, it doesnt really represent anything

i really think, irex should supply an key press, which hides the splashscreen, and shows the linux boot console as it starts up!
