[j-nsp] How-to flash RE BIOS (U-Boot+loader) on bricked SRX650 SRE6

[Jared Mauch]

Flash programmers are cheap these days.. I don't know about the SRX650, but is the chip socketed?  Generally I've seen these with PLCC32 chips, some are SMT some are socketed so you can remove it and read/reprogram it in an external reader.
