One step forward and two steps back.

Happy to see that you considered this Beta release to be at least one step 
forward (before ending up being one step backward :)


No PPC binary, and the installer will happily chug right along 
without telling users that they're installing something they 
can't even use.

Only x86 and 32-bit support with this beta release. Could you explain in more 
detailed your installation problems. E.g. do you try to install Windows XP or 
Windows Vista or Mac OS X 10.x or Debian Linux or some other Linux or ...

Or are you trying to install Mac flasher-3.5 to PPC Mac? I do not Mac myself 
well enoug to say if architecture can be defined to the Mac installation 
package so that you will get some sensible error message if you try to install 
wrong architecture binary.

Hi,

From: ext Andre Klapper [mailto:aklap...@openismus.com] 
your email and the download page do not mention any architectures.
Can you please add that information to the download page?

We just updated Flasher-3.5 download page and readme file here 
http://tablets-dev.nokia.com/maemo-dev-env-downloads.php

With binary architecture information flasher-3.5 beta installation packages 
support.

Thanks about feedback so far.

I have updated my flasher backlog with request to have also PPC architecture 
supported for Mac OS X. If we find PPC Mac somewhere I think this can be done 
easily for final release.

I have not tested Windows version in Windows 7 RC yet. If somebody has latest 
Win7 RC installed I would be interested are there some problems?

Cheers,

is it possible to do tablet-tablet flashing?

(serious question)

most of us now have more than one device and since not all of us have linux
or windows available (hiya GA), having a native solution would be a possible
quicker workaround

 Yes, because PPC OS X is basically the only thing I have access to on
 a regular basis. Yes, you can tell the installer that it should check
 the architecture. No, you shouldn't be doing that because you should
 be compiling a PPC binary.

Hi,

I found something to comment from this last email :).

that it should check the architecture. No, you shouldn't be 

If same installer can be used to install both x86 and PCC binaries depending on 
which PC you run installation package that would be great. Anyhow I think we 
can make at least separate PCC installation package when we will have PCC Mac 
to make it.

that it should check the architecture. No, you shouldn't be 
doing that because you should be compiling a PPC binary.

Nobody has told me if PCC binary can be build on x86 Mac. If not it will take 
some time to make PCC version of flasher-3.5 even when it is just rebuilding 
(at least in theory it should be just rebuilding task).

Cheers,

is it possible to do tablet-tablet flashing?

(serious question)

[jot]  I think it is not possible because Tablet USB port drivers do not 
support it but I am not sure. What is possible is to use 
/usr/sbin/fiasco_flasher available from Tablet to flash images from mmc card.

most of us now have more than one device and since not all of us have linux or 
windows available (hiya GA), having a native solution would be a possible 
quicker workaround

[jot] The easies way to do flashing we be from PC but maybe it would be enough 
for you to flash from inside Tablet. BTW no quarantine this will work as I have 
not tested this myself.

Sorry about that.

Only x86 and 32-bit for this beta release. 

Main purpose to publish new Fremantle flashers, when there are no Fremantle 
devices yet available :),  is to get feedback from maemo community and have 
true installation packages available for Eclipse Integration.

It would be great also to have GUI wrapper done for end users/developers on top 
of these (usable on all supported platforms Windows, Linuxes and Mac OS X :). 
Hint, hint ...
