Okay I have the correct hardware this time it is definitely an AP5030DN not the AP6050DN like my previous attempt.
When I perform the install exactly as prescribed in the commit instructions I get the transfer over tftp initiated as expected and then it just runs it's normal bootup procedure.
I notice that my uboot version is higher than the one in the hardware pages bootlog example also it behaves slightly differently.
Instead of asking for the password and allowing me to enter the one in the instructions as soon as the console is interrupted it forces a new password to be set. So that's different for a start.
This is my bootlog and it is captured fresh after a hardware reset was performed.
Has anyone else encountered this and is there any way round it?
