J.P. van Wyk jpvw at truteq.comGood day list We acquired a BS-11 microBTS a while ago and in the preliminary stages of setting up the equipment came upon the following: background - 1. we installed OpenBSC as per the OpenBSC wiki. 2. we manufactured a serial cable to interact with the BS-11. 3. using bs11_config as per the bs11_config wiki page we started the BS-11 and got the following: $ ./bs11_config -p /dev/ttyUSB0 bs11_config (C) 2009 by Harald Welte and Dieter Spaar This is FREE SOFTWARE with ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY LMT LOGON: ACK PHASE: 1 Warm Up Abis-link: Down PHASE: 1 Warm Up Abis-link: Down PHASE: 1 Warm Up Abis-link: Down . . PHASE: 1 Warm Up Abis-link: Down PHASE: 1 Software required Abis-link: Down No valid safety Load file "BTSBMC76.SWI" After this nothing further happens. From the wiki page I conclude that the file in question is the SMU safety load that is needed to create the minimal configuration to get the BS-11 to boot. There seem to be another firmware image needed for the BS-11 namely the HS011106.SWL Am I correct in my assumption that the BS-11 was not preloaded with this software? Where do I get these firmware images as the wiki page states that the project can't provide any of the firmware due to copyright constraints.
