Tracy,

Nobody on site knows enough to play with this area, and even I am getting pretty rusty now. The battery going bad is very possible, so we will try booting from .5 and see.....

Regards,

John Pitman

It "could" be possible LDEV 1 was changed from 10/4/24.6 to 5 and
someone forgot to tell the boot loader, but doubtful.

Or it "was" changed but the internal batteries went bad and it defaulted
back to 6.

If that was the case you can "try" booting from 10/4/24.5.  (The worst
thing it can tell you is "no".)
