Hi Shardul,

The reason why your flash is failing on eMMC is probably because your NavQ has a 4GB eMMC chip, which was shipped out on most NavQ boards. Unfortunately, you can not flash the hovergames image to eMMC if you have a 4GB board, as the image is too large.

As for the SD card issue, can you try flashing the image before extracting the .bz2?

Thanks,

Landon

Thanks @Landon_Haugh , I am now able to flash os on SD card.

But ran Into a different error.

I am not able to connect to navq using serial. With the old os on the sd card i have once connected to navq using putty. Then I disconnected all cables and tried again this time i was not able to connect to navq. I flash the latest os the one i mentioned before but still not able to connect to serial.

Would like to know if my board is booting properly. Attaching images of the board.
