Theoretically it could be the ROM's, being that the 11.0 (10c)'s upped the
ability to other FLASH manufacturers, as opposed to Intel & Panasonic.
Generally- if you have boot ROM's of a lower code (say 10.0), "no usable
interfaces" appears when trying to run 12.x in the 2500 series. The issue
could very well be a bad FLASH stick...
