New Gigablue SE

[s1m0nw]

Guys am no dafty at flashing on gigablue. Cmon come up with a remedy otjer than changing usb pens.

Flashing is near enough the exact same btwn vu+ and giga se. So whats the problem?

I find my Gigablues are really picky with USB sticks for flashing.

I've got dozens of the things lying around and all branded, not cheapo generic ones,and even using the HP tool doesn't help.

The only ones I've had success with are a 8GB Sandisk cruzer blade and a 16GB Kingston Data Traveller

I have cheap shit USB pens.. and expensive ones also.. About 20+ at last count..

I have found 1 USB pen that has never let me down with any of the Gigablues that have passed through my hands..

No name on it.. Its a 4GB that pivits in the middle.. Something similar to the one attached..

Only difference is.. Mine is red.. and not yellow..

With latest bootloader you do not need a burn.bat file.

got backup on USB with gigablue folder (2 files kernel.bin & rootfs.bin) to root. Put USB in front port > powered off box > powered on box > in lcd - boot > USB > No 'conf' and box just loads installed image.

Any idea what i am doing wrong?

Don't own a GB but have used the Kingston reds like the ones in Mr Mr pic as well as Play,com branded ones and cruzer blades, all have worked fine but got a failure this week with a play.com, branded one that was the virtually the same as one that works only diff was size, one is 8GB and other 16GB.

Don't know why the difference but you just need to perserver and find one that does and also double check you are putting the files in the right folder names etc on to the USB.

Any chance of anyone who has backed up an image then re installed it on gigablue se to put a 'tuturial' up.
