Flashing completed.

Remove the USB cable and bootup the device by pressing powerkey.

Thanks for the information. We’re looking into this, since some users still seem to be affected by this, even though this should be handled by the flashing script already.

What Linux distribution and which kernel version (uname -rvm) are you using?

#5

Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon
5.4.0-196-generic

#6

I had the same problem and had to perform the additional steps mentioned to successfully install.

# uname -rvm
6.1.0-25-amd64 #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Debian 6.1.106-3 (2024-08-26) x86_64
