The autoinstaller is not working properly. This is a known problem, but given that the preferred method of upgrade is now over the network, it has not been a priority.
To install the firmware from a USB stick using OFW: flash path_to_file where path_to_file is usually something like u:q2d05.rom You can use: dir u: to list the contents of the USB stick. To install a build from a USB stick using OFW: copy-nand path_to_file This will overwrite all data on the laptop. Make sure to backup anything you want to keep! wad On Nov 28, 2007, at 12:31 PM, Yoshiki Ohshima wrote: > Alex, > >> In the future, if you're only updating the ofw, you should just get >> to the ok prompt and type: ok flash path_to_file > > Yes, I know that, but it is not a good way to check if there is a > bug or not^^; > >> Also, after the firmware is upgraded, it reboots the machine, which >> would then lead the machine into trying to do an upgrade instead of >> a clean install if you don't hold the square key.
