To top off the whole fun event. The metal cover, as I was putting it back on, gave me a paper cut.
I am in need of a vacation, problem is that i cant go anywhere because the damned virus.
Of note: it was PCM's nvm uboot that I did. The final line for spiflash was probably what got me.
Ah! Ok, I didn't see that you had written that to the SPI. That u-boot has a history of a better success rate flashing to SPI than the mainline u-boot that is included with most mainline distros for the PBP.
Yes, the case edges can be very sharp. After a few similar instances, I've resorted to only removing it with the use of a spudger.
Glad you're back up and going, again!
