WARNING: While this looks like it should work it doesn’t
Looks like any image can be made a ‘flasher’ image simply by booting from the sd card with the image you want written to it (either iot or lxqt) and then running /opt/scripts/init-eMMC-flasher-respeaker.sh as root…
Thats all the image builder script does when it creates a flasher image. It just auto executes that script on boot.
This also exposes a nice way to create an “image” easily. Just boot from the SD card, do all your work to get it the way you want, and then use it to flash each respeaker you want.
UPDATE: Just did that on one of my core v2’s and sadly while the script runs, and it looks like it works, it doesn’t result in a bootable device after the fact.
So I’ll stick to booting off a SD card for now, as all the flasher images don’t actually have working a GPIO pin for the LED enable pin.
And my question still stands Seeed. Is there a more update to date functional flasher image?
