Re: TFTPDNLD on 2691 router

Can not access/open flash is another issue ... Is this a new flash card?

If you have another router, try and format this flash card first. Then put
it back in and try it again. Try and access the flash card first with the
dev and dir commands.

I had a 3725 that I used to recover from this same problem ... as mentioned,
i formatted the flash card in the 3725, and then performed ymodem.

Would suggest to give it a try. If you have another 2691 this might work to
format the card.
