Boot upgrade on PowerConnect 5324
Trying to upgrade the firmware and boot on several powerconnect 5324 switches. Very old versions, firmware is 45 and boot is 1.00.2.02
First tried using hyper terminal and xmodem. In going to the latest I read the cautionary note about continous rebooting so took firmware from version 45 to 47,no problem. Then tried to upgrade the boot and following download got an "Incorrect file format" message. Tried again, using the latest 10.0.21 with the latest package.
Still got file format error message.
Tried it using cli and the tftp method. Immediately got the incorrect file format message. Should I try downloading the software again, or is something else going on? Switches are out of warranty.
Thanks
Paul

NOTE: When software version 2.0.0.x is downloaded to the PowerConnect 5324, please make sure you also download the new boot code version 1.0.2.2.
NOTE: If you are trying upgrade from 1.0.0.47, please make sure software version 2.0.0.x is downloaded to the PowerConnect 5324, along with new boot code version 1.0.2.2. New firmware and new boot code must upgrade at the same time. Failure to download the new boot code results in the system rebooting continuously. This will require an XMODEM download of the previous version of software (5324-10047.ros) using XMODEM and the Startup Menu to recover.
