[ixp1200] problem while flashing princeton firmware

Hello,

We attempted to flash the princeton firmware onto an IXP1200 board and ran into a problem. 

We ran futil as described in the readme, using the image file "~/Runtime/ixp1200/sa/src/Firmware/flashImage.bin". Futil had no problems sending the data to the IXP, and we got a "sending data 100%" message. However, in the next step where Futil went to update the flash, it stopped at "update flash 0%" and had a timeout. 

After this, the board has been locked up displaying an '88' code. We are unable to talk to the board via serial. We've also tried re-jumpering it and installing it in a linux PC using the vera module, but the vera module can't talk to it either. 

Is there a way to recover from this or is the flash corrupted? 

Thanks,
Scott
