Installing the kernel module.
|
|
-----------------------------
|
|
|
|
First you need to install dkms on your system.
|
|
|
|
On a debian or ubuntu this is as simple as (as root):
|
|
# apt-get install dkms
|
|
|
|
You can then descend into the awusb/ directory and just run:
|
|
> make
|
|
|
|
Then copy it over to to your kernel modules:
|
|
# cp awusb.ko /lib/modules/`uname -r`/kernel/
|
|
|
|
Load the module by running:
|
|
# modprobe awusb
|
|
|
|
Running LiveSuit.
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
Just run the top level script:
|
|
> ./LiveSuit.sh
|
|
|
|
This will determine whether your system is x86 or x86-64 and will then
|
|
start the right binary.
|
|
|
|
Flashing your device.
|
|
---------------------
|
|
|
|
Warning: if you attach your FEL enabled device before you start
|
|
LiveSuit, then LiveSuit will not detect it. You need to first start the
|
|
LiveSuit application.
|
|
|
|
First, properly power down the device by either pressing and holding the
|
|
power button for about 10 seconds, or by cutting all power in case of
|
|
development board.
|
|
|
|
Start LiveSuit and select an image for flashing, if you haven't already
|
|
done so.
|
|
|
|
Then, hold the FEL button, and power up the device. Either by attaching
|
|
the power lead, or by pressing the power button for 1-2s and then
|
|
pressing and releasing the power button several times in quick
|
|
succession. This will have made your device enter FEL mode.
|
|
|
|
Now attach the USB OTG lead. LiveSuit should now detect your device and
|
|
start flashing.
