Hi All :)

I have been playing with Shield and have messed it up.  I have followed this tutorial but I am missing something / not understanding.

On starting the Shield I get this screen in Tera Term:



I now enter:  fatls mmc 1
and receive this screen:



As I see u-boot-octeon_rhino_itus7x.bin file in the MMC, then simply run these commands to get to Stage 3:

setenv octeon_stage3_bootloader u-boot-octeon_rhino_itus7x.bin
bootstage3



Having the prompt "Octeon cust_private_rhino_itus7x(ram)#" leads me to believe I am now at bootstage 3.

Now I wire up the Shield in router mode. Set up TFTPd32 and follow the other instructions and then ping the TFTP server on my laptop:



Now this is where I think the problem is.  The instructions say "Now type, tftp ItusrouterImage" which I do in to Tera Term. But my understanding is that this will try and get the file ItusrouterImage from my TFTPd32 server running on my laptop. But I have no ItusrouterImage file in the TFTPd32 root folder or anywhere else to upload to the shield.  What have I missed/ not understood? Hope it makes sense ;)

Thanks
