something went wrong during init.lua update on my module. Now the module is always rebooting:

Code: Select allNodeMCU 0.9.5 build 20150213  powered by Lua 5.1.4

NodeMCU 0.9.5 build 20150213  powered by Lua 5.1.4

I'm using nodemcu-flasher and have already reflash the firmware, but I still get the above problem. In which area the init.lua is saved. How to remove the init.lua or whatever makes the problem?

Thanks in advance!

- Wed Mar 25, 2015 5:53 pm #12632 I've had something similar happen on one of my modules recently. I used file.format() to clear out the filesystem (one of my scripts was corrupted somehow) rather than going to the trouble of refreshing the firmware.
