Hi folks,
my Intel Edison stopped being reachable by terminal and ssh over wifi, so I decided to flash it.
$ ./flashall.sh
Using U-Boot target: edison-blankcdc
Now waiting for dfu device 8087:0a99
Please plug and reboot the board

Did you plug and reboot your board?
If yes, please try a recovery by calling this script with the --recovery option
The normal flashing did not work, so I tried the recovery option:
$ ./flashall.sh --recovery

Please plug and reboot the board

So there was no success either. I figured I should try a serial connect:
$sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0
4DE���}��D��E����u�5�d��ZR��Z��~���g�����gZ�cWs�gK�f�s��SgR�s�~�os{k����K
So there is something coming from the Edison upon reboot... Every time I reset the Edison, this line of garbage is being received again...
Does anybody have any clue how to proceed with this?
Thank you!

Yes, I followed these steps and it already fails at step 2.
If I connect both cables to my computer and invoke screen, I get a reboot loop. I guess it is due to insufficient power from the USB port:
$ sudo screen /dev/ttyUSB0 115200

So I connected J16 to an external power supply and J3 to a USB port on my computer. Then I see the following:

Hello Christian,
We would really appreciate if you could provide us the answers to the following questions:
When was the last time the board worked?
Were there any external sensors connected?
Any additional information that could help us to identify the problem would be much appreciated.
We also suggest that you submit a warranty request via web ticket.
Regards,
George

Hello George,
thank you for your reply. The board stopped being reachable by ssh (over wifi) about 3 weeks ago. Then I realized the problems explained above. There were no external sensors connected, it was just performing calculations.
Strangely enough, I tried again and again and suddenly yesterday it booted up successfully. I have no explanation, but for the moment everything seems to be ok.
Thanks for your support.
Christian
