We have over 500 BitsyX based devices in a production environment. In the last 2 months we've had 2 devices fail with the exact same problem. The unit turns on but will not boot completely.
Watching the bootup messages via the serial port, the device stops booting as the following text is received:
Assertion failure at 401.834
Re-flashing the devices does not fix the problem. What does this error mean and how can the problem be fixed?

We have a BitsyXb giving the same indication "FlashFX v1.11.856: Assertion failure at 401.834" Any suggestions for resolution of issue and preservation of customer data stored on the FlashFX Disk are appreciated!
