OK, i ordered the ftdi cable. My favorite solution is the first solution to flash it with usb stick. Is there a windows tool and a tutorial/wiki post/blog how to work with that cable?
How do i know whether that problem is a known issue for the minnowboard max and will be fixed. Whom can i address that issue? Is that a known firmware issue or is that an special problem of my board? 2014-11-20 17:41 GMT+01:00 Peter Ogden <[email protected]>: > I don't know enough about the underlying HDMI issue, but since you are > able to boot into linux successfully then you should be able to update the > firmware these two possible ways: > > 1.
