The host that I am using is openSUSE 11.1. Intermittent errors typically point out to hardware problems. I guess you are using a new USB cable from the OM package, so try connecting it to a different USB port / computer. Anyway I also had some unreliability issues with the USB connection, including device not found and flashes with errors. One aspect is that the order of connecting seems important: that is, connect one end of the cable, switch on OM to boot from NOR flash, connect the other end of the cable.
Do not reboot with the cable linked: it has always locked with me. Fernando _______________________________________________ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community
