I tried using the u-boot-gta02v5-1.3.1+gitrb20cc520a22715fe7ff069b36b7dfdbb925a8e5a-r1.bin from http://downloads.openmoko.org/distro/unstable/daily/om-gta02/20090419/: $ sudo dfu-util -a u-boot -R -D uboot.bin dfu-util - (C) 2007-2008 by OpenMoko Inc. This program is Free Software and has ABSOLUTELY NO WARRANTY Opening USB Device 0x0000:0x0000...

Resetting USB to switch back to runtime mode While device was connected, I selected reboot option from the U-Boot menu. Device powers down briefly, then displays the openmoko logo. It sat there doing nothing for a while so I unplugged the device. However the openmoko logo remains on screen... Is it supposed to take several minutes, it's been more than 15minutes already... Should I reset the device? Boot immediately to the NOR or NAND menu? Thanks in advance.
