Error flashing SX6036 *Fixed no real solution*

[devin_mm]

Does anyone have a solution for this particular issue?

I have received an HP part numbered SX6036 running 3.2.0330-100, I have tried to flash it to 3.6.8008 or even 3. 4.0012 through both the web interface or sftp through the CLI. The installation gets to 11% step 4 then throws the following error :

% /bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/bin/tar: Unexpected EOF in archive
/bin/tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now
*** Could not extract files from /tmp/mnt_image_wi/tmpfs/unzip/image-PPC_M460EX-3.6.8008.tar : 2

Is there an upgrade path I need to follow or is something different happening?

Is the internal flash full?

Thanks for the suggestion but I guess the solution was keep trying until it worked.
I got the 3.4 then the 3.8 worked after the DOA SX6018 I received it's nice having a working switch now I can play with inifiband and 40gbit ethernet through my Celestica.
