[danthephoneman]

Hi All,

Upgrading from 400 to 450, followed hardware guide powered up and I am just getting 1 solid green and flashing amber above the green light. does not seem to move off this state.

any ideas?

The 450 now appears to come with an option so you can create 450r1/450r5/450r6. Try a serial cable into the BCM. Else try putty to it (not sure, I only accessed it using serial cable). Once you've selected it, it should load with the required version.

Sure was a surprise to me when I first saw this.
