Hi, I tried to flash my device to 42-11 from 41-10 a few days ago and I followed these very steps. It flashed the firmware (note: no -R option passed here to flasher), but when I ran the second flasher for the eMMC image it didn't work. It stated something like device busy. What one should do in these cases? -- anidel _______________________________________________ maemo-community mailing list maemo-community@maemo.org https://lists.maemo.org/mailman/listinfo/maemo-community
