πŸ’– REFORM-FLASH-UBOOT(8) πŸ’–

okay bestie, welcome to reform-flash-uboot β€” she lives in the System Administration Utilities section of the manual, and she is exactly what her name says: she downloads u-boot and flashes it. no cap, that's the whole job. πŸ’…


✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

reform-flash-uboot [--help] [--offline] DEVICE

πŸ¦‹ DESCRIPTION πŸ¦‹

so here's the vibe: this little icon grabs the latest u-boot for the current platform, then updates /boot/flash.bin. after that, she flashes that u-boot onto DEVICE, which β€” and this is the cute part β€” can just be one of the short-hands sd or emmc. no need to type out a whole device path, she already knows. πŸŽ€


🌸 OPTIONS 🌸

  • DEVICE β€” the target device you wanna flash, and it's gotta be either "sd" or "emmc". that's it, that's the list. πŸ‘‘
  • --help β€” prints the help text and dips out. short and sweet, we love her for it. 🫢
  • --offline β€” instead of downloading u-boot, she uses the /boot/flash.bin that's already sitting there. perfect for when the wifi is giving nothing. πŸ’€

lowkey important: DEVICE only accepts sd or emmc. anything else? not the move, bestie. πŸ™ˆ

and that's the whole page, fr fr β€” go flash something iconic. βœ¨πŸ’–

sending you off with the receipts: this is reform-flash-uboot version 1.68, dated February 2025. mwah, stan. πŸŽ€πŸ’…
