Sabreboard SD - flash android images (Linux)

arielhernandez — Thu, 16 Jan 2014 18:17:42 GMT

Hi people!! I'm just wondering how to flash android images on Linux systems. I downloaded android_jb4.2.2_1.0.0-ga_image_6qsabresd.tar.gz, then I used mksdcard-android.sh script to make the SD partitions and with fastboot I flashed android images, but it didn't work!! :smileysad:

I have several errors with fastboot, such as:

sending 'boot' (4782 KB)...

OKAY [ 4.707s]

writing 'boot'...

FAILED (remote: image too large for partition)

finished. total time: 4.717s

I need to flash android images on Linux (not Windows), that why I didn't use MfgTool2.exe.

Can someone help me with this?

Thanks!

Ariel.

Hello, there are steps on how to do this in the android user guide (attached), around chapter 4 (page 10).

It explains how to create partitions and dd android to the SD . Let me know if you have questions.

SearchMX,

Thank you for your answer!! I already had this PDF, but I didn't notice that detail.

Thanks again!
