Hi,
it's late here. I've finished the mainboardand, all chips are in, JMP3 is free, USB stick is formated to FAT32 and contains pfm2 folder with hopefully all files (as extracted from .zip). After plugging the USB the LED's blink shortly and display shows only yellow rectangles. Same behavior when USB stick is unplugged. I guess it's some stupid mistake on my side or something overlooked. I'll try to post pics tomorrow but perhaps sombody can give me a hint what to check. Thanks a lot in advance!

Xavier:

Seems like your preenfm2 cannot read the USB drive. Is it on old one ? USB1 ?
What model is it exactly ?

Can you try with another one ?

Thanks for the push in right direction. It was Transcend JF V30/1GB stick. Now I tried new SanDisk 64 GB and it boots fine  :D
Will try to search for other smaller sticks.

Thanks again!

Edit: I don't seem to be able edit the title of the thread, could Mod(s) add [SOLVED] to it? Thanks.

Xavier:
Thanks for the feedback.
I still don't know why some USB stick don't work.
The sandisk cruzer blade works great, are small and fast.

Will change the title to SOLVED  ;) thanks

When flashing BIOSes they say 2GB or lower. So is there some sort of difference once you get above 2GB?

I think 2GB is the limit of FAT16, perhaps some drives are FAT16 and not FAT32?
