Just few more comments, you do not have to use MIC to generate bmap file. If you do not use MIC, we can discuss this separately. You can use bmaptool for flashing even without bmap file, in which case it won't be that fast, but you'll still be able to flash from an URL and it sitll will be safe (e.g., if give dd /dev/sda by a mistake - say good bye to your data, but bmaptool will refuse it). Really, why using copper age tools like dd if we have a lot better and faster tool? -- Best Regards, Artem Bityutskiy _______________________________________________ Dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.tizen.org/listinfo/dev
