Re: Debug Board in Vancouver, BC
Ok, that made it even worse :( Now I only have NOR uBoot and dfu-util still gives me only 1 alternate there which is USB Device Firmware Upgrade. Cannot flash the NAND uBoot, since dfu-util does not see the required partition...

Cannot flash the NAND uBoot, since dfu-util does not see the required partition... Don't pay too much attention to the dfu-util -l output - there are two different modes the device can be in, and in the default one you don't see the other alternate settings listed. When you run the dfu-util Download command it should automatically set the device into the required mode. If it fails then try running the exact same command a second time - sometimes it fails on the first try. ___ Openmoko community mailing list community@lists.openmoko.org http://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/community

Yay, that worked. Thanks a lot, now i should be able to play around with the new distro. Vasili.
