For those bound on risk I wonder if the removed USB port is possible to be soldered back to copy over these files. Probably the biggest risk would be warranty wise?

Should be a lot safer just to buy another BBB & copy the image over.

huh? it's simple enough using putty, why would we need a bbb?... lol

his code is stored in RAM anyway... right?
a cold restart works fine.... at least it did for my 3 sats...

the location of the .factory file was mentioned early on... surely folks made a backup of it?

can't use putty if the machine won't come up on the network due to deleted critical files. And since the USB has been disabled...the number of choices is sort of whittled down. Best solution is to, of course, not delete the files in the first place Wink

And how does one restore said backup if one can't access the machine Wink

Cklovas nor any rep ever never instructed anyone to erase the .factory files.
Don't know why someone would do such a thing.

agreed and addressed in edit above

Indeed NOT. My instructions were quite explicit and said nothing about deleting or replacing any files.

Did anyone who deleted the files deleted it thinking of cgminer? I'm still to find one of those mythical deleters! Grin

By the way! Thank you so much for taking cgminer back on these machines and giving it with the proper hashrate ckolivas! Even if it doesn't improve on anything else which I hear it does* Wink

it is already awesome just for that!
