Question to flashing eMMC
 

I follow this instruction for windows:
http://wiki.maemo.org/Updating_the_tablet_firmware
and I don't understand this step:
How am I doing that? Where can I download the FIASCO Image? Which command above? Without the R?
This command?
But no... the next step is to download the eMMC Image.
maybe... only this?
Please help me. Thats all. Thanks!

the fiasco image is the firware that you want to install example is the pr 1.1, follow the steps the R in the command denotes to reboot so dont put the R at the end of the command, then flash the EMMC image, eMMC is the vanilla firmware..

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

First I want to reflash the eMMC with the Vanilla FW: RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin
and after that upgrade to the latest FW: RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin
What do I have to do now?
first:
and second step:
?

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f



let it run


then


flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R


should be fine.. i just rebooted mine after flash, didn't make much difference, but if u can do it without it booting i suppose its a benefit

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

its the other way around flash the firmware first RX-51_2009SE_3.2010.02-8_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin then the eMMC RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R[/code]

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

like this.. flash fiaco first

Download and install the latest version of Flasher e.g. maemo_flasher-3.5_2.5.2.2.exe
Download the latest firmware (.bin) file and save it to %ProgramFiles%\maemo\flasher-3.5\ (the default installation path for Flasher) or to the custom path of your choice.
Ensure the battery is at least half full.
Unplug charger cable and switch off the device.
Open the Command Prompt (Start then Run or Windows Logo key + R) and type cmd then press Enter.
Change the directory to the Flasher's path (TIP: Use the TAB key to auto-complete the commands and file-names)
cd "%ProgramFiles%\maemo\flasher-3.5"
Hold the u key on the device keyboard and connect the USB cable at the same time (see the Flasher documentation)
Run the following command:

flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_2.2009.51-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin -f

Replace RX-51_2009SE_2.2009.51-1_PR_COMBINED_MR0_ARM.bin with the firmware you wish to update (The name of the firmware image file you downloaded in the beginning).

then flash eMMC
Grab the Vanilla eMMC image (.bin file) from the Nokia repository
Navigate to the directory where the image file was saved (Windows users: if you don't know the full path to the image, copy it to the flasher directory)
Execute the following command

flasher-3.5.exe -F RX-51_2009SE_1.2009.41-1.VANILLA_PR_EMMC_MR0_ARM.bin -f -R

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

okay and thats the instruction for the FIASCO thing?
Hm... thank you.

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

you need to flash fiasco first before eMMC as per instruction


Flash the FIASCO/rootfs image first using the above commands, WTIHOUT the -R at the end of the command, keep the device plugged in after flashing.

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

may i know what's the difference between flashing the eMMC and the other one (firmware?) ?

and why should we flash the eMMC (in what situation) or the other one (firmware) ?

sorry..just had my n900..appreciate your help..

Re: Question to flashing eMMC
 

Yes and my question is what FIASCO is. I can't find an Image called "FIASCO" I can't flash something without having it...
Where can I download the FIASCO/rootfs image?
