getting error while trying to flash my neo freerunner
Hi again, I've downloaded the sources of dfu-util and opened them with Anjuta. The "-71" error is defined in usb_dfu.h: "DFU_STATE_appDETACH [71]" (I don't know much about C, but in the sidebar of Anjuta are many symbols defined and behind each of them is a number in [], and DFU_STATE_appDETACH has number 71, so I think that is "my" error. Does that mean that dfu-util *thinks* that I disconnected my Neo? ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support

Re: getting error while trying to flash my neo freerunner
Hi, me again ;)
I think I've the part of the code, where the error occurs:
In sam7dfu.c
"printf("Starting download: [");
fflush(stdout);
while (bytes_sent < st.st_size /* - DFU_HDR */) {
int hashes_todo;
ret = read(fd, buf, xfer_size);
if (ret < 0) {
perror(fname);
goto out_close;
}
"
now where is the function "read"? and what does this function? I can't find
anything in the sam7dfu.c and in the included files, there is even no function
"read".
Only one file I can't check because I dunno where it is: config.h in the svn
trunk.
Why do I think that this is the code where the error occurs?
1. the "Starting download ["
2. the "perror(fname);", in the other error handlers, there is a ""Error during
download\n", but in my error message, there is only a "dfu_download error".

Ouch. I'm out of ideas. We need help from someone more expert with dfu-util than I. Let me see what I can find. We might also ask on the kernel list and on the IRC channel.

Although if it's not it will be hard to update until we solve this problem. Does this problem persist for kernel and u-boot too? Can you check the integrity of the image you're trying to flash with md5sum? Michael ___ support mailing list support@lists.openmoko.org https://lists.openmoko.org/mailman/listinfo/support
getting error while trying to flash my neo freerunner
I've used the command out of the wiki...for example "sudo ./dfu-util -a rootfs -R -D ./Om2008.8-gta02-20080904.rootfs.jffs2" I'm using the standard terminal from gnome Hey guys, I hope you can help me, I've the following problem: When I try to flash the neo on my laptop I get a "Starting download: [dfu_download error -71" sometimes the download starts and then I get the error. When I get the neo in June, I could flash it without getting this error. My operating system: Ubuntu 8.04.1 I ask here, because I can't find anything about this error in the www (only 3 entries in google and none of it helps). hope for help Detructor == Hi, What command line did you use? One cause of this error is when you give the wrong argument to dfu-util, e.g. -a u-boot while flashing a kernel image.
