I simply started MFDeploy, chose USB/FEZ Hydra_Gadgeteer and clicked Plugin/Debug/Erase Firmware.
I just made a movie of the whole update procedure (I made one cut during the dataflash erase) which should be available on youtube in a few minutes:
Update: The first upload didn’t work. I’ll post a new link in here when I managed to get the video up.
wow! This could be a bug, but in this case, this is a very good bug! Will give it a try!
OK now here is the video I promised earlier…
Awesome! Erasing the firmware shouldn’t erase tinybooter so this is a bug. It is a very good bug 
We will test this further and see how we can make the update simpler. Thanks for the advice.
Tested the SD Card and get the following error when I insert the Sd Card. Before you ask, the card is formated to FAT and is 16 meg capacity.
Une exception de première chance de type ‘System.Exception’ s’est produite dans GHIElectronics.OSH.NETMF.Hardware.dll

Please post thd code you used. Also, have you tried another card?
With another Card the board freeze. The freezing Card is FAT32 with 3 folders. The other card is FAT and empty.

Please keep code tagged. I modified your post so code is readable
Does anybody has problem using ENC28 with custom port and sending receiving data?
I’m looking at the ENC module at the moment. I’m also finding limitations, but remember that this is beta code. I would suggest that you would be better off starting a new thread rather than getting all mixed up in this one, or post in a similar one - there is another about the ENC module on the Gadgeteer forum).
I’ll post up the issues that I find in a few days once I’ve had a good mess about with it.
Phil
Ok OzFlip, I’ll wait for your feedback in a few days 
I can’t wait…
A minor bug I noted today.
When updating a Hydra with a an EMX connected via another USB port, when prompted to reset the button in the dialog won’t enable if both are connected. Tried a couple of times, then when I unplugged the EMX dev board and reran the update, it properly detected the Hydra after reset.
Firmware update with multiple NETMF devices connected is untested and not supported as of now. But thanks for the feedback, We will note it fro future.
Joystick press & release events don’t seem to fire.
Remove joystick and put button (same code) will it work now?
Now, remove joystick and add button in designer, will it work?
Haven’t checked joystick yet, have tested socket 4 though…still doesn’t work.
I’ve tried both the OLED and the Music module on 4, neither work.
Both are fine on socket 3 though.
