uboot erase all

Hi,

i have a 6900-x72 which shows nothing in the putty-terminal after "erase all" in uboot.
I found a comment to change the serial parameters, but the terminal was still black.

Is there a chance to get a connection to the switch or is it e-waste ?

I had never done "erase all" in uboot. Maybe this isn't a good idea...
I understand that there is no output at the serial - also not during a reboot / power-on?
Are you sure your serial is working: tested at another X72? Worked before the erase-all-command?
Normaly I would recommend to do rescue - but you need a serial connection for it (for "run rescue").

The serial was working before with the same switch. In another post was the same Problem with a 68xx switch. I think we send it to al.
And it is realy no good idea to do an erase all in uboot.

Thanks,
kalix

you can try rescue, if you have the rescue.img for X72.

For rescue you had to start in uboot and do "run rescue" to boot the Trescue.img.
No Trescue.img

So i think no chance for me.
