This was the case with two different u-boot flashes, the one that came with the moko and a more recent build. It's unlikely the problem. The cord is also likely fine, as I can successfully flash other images. Lastly, I did try erase the rootfs first with
<br>nand erase clean rootfs<br>from the serial line. <br><br>I'm running Gutsy Gibbon, which has some known USB problems. I'm going to try to flash the phone on a comrade's computer today, that's my guess as to the error.
<br><br>I'll update this as to how it goes. <br><br><div><span class="gmail_quote">On 10/30/07, <b class="gmail_sendername">Nick Guenther</b> <<a href="mailto:kousue@gmail.com">kousue@gmail.com</a>> wrote:</span>
