Re: Nokia N9 please help...
 

Okay i'm running Ubuntu on 64-bit...

So i'd go "sudo dpkg -i --force-architecture /home/ubuntu/Downloads/flasher_3.12.1_i386.deb"

And then

--load -k /home/ubuntu/Downloads/vmlinuz-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-adaptation-n950-bootloader -n /home/ubuntu/Downloads\initrd.img-rescue-2.6.32.20112201-11.2-n950 --boot ?

Re: Nokia N9 help? MALF indicator file?
 

Most probably it will work OK. :)
I haven't actually ever installed a 32bit package on a 64bit machine, but if you can install it, the binary itself should run OK.

Okay i managed to get flasher_3.12.1_amd64.deb for 64bit but am still having issues...

The command is "sudo flasher --load ... ... "

BTW, I just tried to install the 32bit package on my 64bit Linux Mint 17 (but note that recent Ubuntus have multiarch support) and I was at least able to get the flasher help page without coredumps :)

Re: Nokia N9 help? MALF indicator file?
 

Why won't it let me instal the flasher? ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo dpkg --install /home/ubuntu/Downloads/flasher_3.12.1_amd64.deb
dpkg: error: failed to open package info file `/var/lib/dpkg/available' for reading: Input/output error

How do you run Ubuntu, from an USB stick?
Google for that exact error, you find similar posts like this one:

(which seems to hint towards a cr@ppy memory stick)

Re: Nokia N9 help? MALF indicator file?
 

Just booted it from the USB? I think it might be because /flasher_3.12.1_amd64.deb is still running in the terminal when i try and use /home/ubuntu/Downloads/flasher_3.12.1_amd64.deb how do i end the package running in the terminal?
