Hi Gora

Thanks
and

Good to hear from you.

Hope all well otherwise.

Yes you are correct the ITD is very frustrating - and it seems like you and
like every year I would need to run windows inside a virtual machine as
well. Luckily the new virtual machines are quiet well integrated so it
makes life easier - I can do all my work on the linux side and simply just
feed in the data into the windows side - generate the file and its done.

Am experimenting with running windows from a USB drive - since even the
great samsung that makes android software does not have a linux based
firmware updation tool.

Meanwhile am not going to waste time with trying to make ITD stuff work -
just needed the confirmation you have provided.

regards
ram
