Yes. The only NANDblaster function that will work to a secure laptop is nb-secure [1]. nb-clone (which is what you did) requires an non-secure target laptop set. Otherwise the security system would be bypassed. On using the four game keys ... <quote> This works for both secure and non-secure systems. If the system is secure, the sender must be sending a signed image; otherwise the receiver will stop before writing to it NAND, saying "Placement spec bad signature!".</quote> [2] 1. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Nandblaster_for_XO-1#NANDblasting_a_Signed_NAND_Image_File 2. http://wiki.laptop.org/go/Nandblaster_for_XO-1#..._with_Game_Buttons -- James Cameron http://quozl.linux.org.au/ _______________________________________________ Devel mailing list [email protected] http://lists.laptop.org/listinfo/devel
