dbFsIoctl: invalid code 3

This error is not a concern. It exists in my 7104 too.

Thanks.

be careful   as post#815  i re-copy here

In my case the target nam had to be this name i mentioned, because TekScope would be buggy  or would not start

This is what works for me in the nvram content

boot device          : sm
processor number     : 0
host name            : host
file name            : c:\vxBoot\vxWorks.st
inet on ethernet (e) : 192.168.0.1:ffffff00
inet on backplane (b): 192.168.0.2:ffffff00
host inet (h)        : 192.168.0.1
gateway inet (g)     : 192.168.0.2
user (u)             : anonymous
ftp password (pw)    : anonymous
flags (f)            : 0x1000
target name (tn)     : tds7000 -----> i've been told to keep it like this, if not, TekScope doesn't save some  settings ??
startup script (s)   : c:\vxBoot\topscript.hw
other (o)            : 0x0

Still have doubts on the flags and other sections,

if i put something else in the flag like 0x1008, tekscope stalls
if i change other setting like 0x1000  TekScope starts but no traces of ch1 ch2 .....  cant recall what i put ...

The  dbFsIoctl: invalid code 3    error you have,  may come from the topScript.hw file

thread at : https://www.eevblog.com/forum/repair/boot-problem-on-tektronix-tds7404-scope/ 


it direct to lines like :   

cd "dbfs:c:/vxBoot"   

dbfs:c:/vxBoot

Thank-you. I am getting there!
I did check for LF and CR but had only LF in my c:\vxBoot\topscript.hw but still get the error:
 dbFsIoctl: invalid code 3
