Help with DFU Mode (P1 Device)

[Heilpern, Mark]

So far, I've been unable to send a rootfs to the phone. I get the
following when trying:

OpenMoko-dev:/mnt/hgfs/C/OpenMoko$ sudo ./dfu-util -a 5 -R -D
./openmoko-devel-image-fic-gta01-20070728230649.rootfs.jffs2 
dfu-util - (C) 2007 by OpenMoko Inc.
This program is Free Software and has ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY

In my current case, the development host is inside VMWare, so I am
guessing the problem is in the USB transition between WinXP and
VMWare(Ubuntu).

I've been able to dfu-util -l without any problems.

Hi,

i think it is irrelevant when to fire up the dfu-util, as long as you 
changed the state of the
console input (that is "Set console to USB"), right?
Did anybody managed to gain remote ssh access to the unit? I am 
constantly getting "connection refused"
errors, while trying. Btw. I have used yesterdays rootfs and kernel 
images (2007_07_30).
