I think I got past the Inovelli LZW30 issue! I noticed some LED activity during the update process and noticed the switch seems to not ever reply to two commands from this driver in a row without air gapping.
For anyone having trouble, try this:
- Abort and release lock of any prior attempts
- Air Gap your switch and plug it back in
- Start Firmware upgrade
- Watch the process, and watch for "Current Firmware version obtained" (or something similar to that)
- Immediately air-gap your switch and plug it back in (it has to be fully "re-booted" while the updater is downloading/parsing the firmware)
- For me the "Request to apply firmware", was then immediately successful
Unfortunately I cannot replicate again to see if it works since I dont have another LZW30 to try on.
