Guest rossburton Posted November 29, 2010 Report Share Posted November 29, 2010 Today I flashed my Vega to 1.04 from Linux without any use of Windows at all. To do this you need the Linux binary of nvflash, which is part of the linux4tegra download available at http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/downloads. Then take the 1.04 update .exe and unzip it (it's a standard self-extracting zip) and read lvds.bat, this is the updater script that the update runs. In it you'll see the nvflash line that you need to run. Fiddle the paths and construct the correct invocation of nvflash for you, and voila. $ sudo LD_LIBRARY_PATH=../linux4tegra/nvflash/ ../linux4tegra/nvflash/nvflash --bct flash.bct --setbct --bl bootloader.bin --configfile flash.cfg --odmdata 0x000c0075 --create --go Nvflash started rcm version 0X20001 System Information: chip name: t20 chip id: 0x20 major: 1 minor: 3 chip sku: 0x8 chip uid: 0x1714404643e0a1d7 macrovision: disabled hdcp: enabled sbk burned: false dk burned: false boot device: nand operating mode: 3 device config strap: 0 device config fuse: 0 sdram config strap: 0 sending file: flash.bct - 4080/4080 bytes sent flash.bct sent successfully odm data: 0xc0075 downloading bootloader -- load address: 0x108000 entry point: 0x108000 sending file: bootloader.bin | 937416/937416 bytes sent bootloader.bin sent successfully waiting for bootloader to initialize bootloader downloaded successfully setting device: 1 0 creating partition: BCT creating partition: PT creating partition: EBT creating partition: MSC creating partition: SOS creating partition: LNX creating partition: APP creating partition: CAC creating partition: USP creating partition: UDA Formatting partition 2 BCT please wait.. done!

To do this you need the Linux binary of nvflash, which is part of the linux4tegra download available at http://developer.nvidia.com/tegra/downloads. Lovely - thanks for the feedback. Which version of linux4tegra did you use? There are currently three versions on the url you supplied. Linux For Tegra (L4T) Release (kernel 2.6.32; git tag tegra-10.9.3) Linux For Tegra (L4T) Release (kernel 2.6.32; git tag tegra-10.8.2) Linux For Tegra (L4T) Release (kernel 2.6.32; git tag tegra-10.7.2) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I'm only using the flasher I doubt it matters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest RielN Posted March 19, 2011 Report Share Posted March 19, 2011 Had to copy all .so files from the nvflash dir to /usr/lib/ to get it working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
