Restoring DNOS6 on N1148P-ON
We recently purchased (6) N1148P-ON Switches and were going to attempt installing an Open Network OS on them; however, found that there is currently no supported OS other than DNOS 6.
We had already gone through the process of uninstalling DNOS 6 to prep for the OpenSwitch installation and now need to re-install DNOS6 from Onie-Install-Mode.
The Firmware .stk file we downloaded is not a valid install image for Onie, can you point me in the direction of where to download a DELL DNOS 6 image that can be installed from within ONIE?

Our issue is that when we purchased these, we were advised that they were fully Open Network compatible, so the first thing we did was run the ONIE process to uninstall the existing NOS so we could install OpenSwitch; however, there is not currently support for any NOS other than DNOS 6.
So the issue is that we now have no OS and no way to re-install it.

It isn't the ONIE Boot Loader that we are trying to restore, its DNOS.
We can boot into ONIE Install or ONIE Rescue but cannot re-install DNOS 6 and support seems to have no helpful options.

1- Boot to ONIE (Rescue Mode)
2- Insert USB that contains ONIE-Installer
for example "onie-installer-arm-dell_n1100_armv7a-r0-v6.7.1.22"
3- ONIE:/ # mkdir /mnt/media
ONIE:/ # fdisk -l
/dev/sda1 #for example#
4- ONIE:/ #mount /dev/sda1 /media
ONIE:/ # cd /media
ONIE:/media # ls
onie-installer-arm-dell_n1100_armv7a-r0-v6.7.1.22
5- ONIE:/media # onie-nos-install onie-installer-arm-dell_n1100_armv7a-r0-v6.7.1.22
I hopeit works.
