I've seen this question asked a million times but seemingly never in a thread of its own.
Would someone be able to generate a proper flash-able Sailfish IMG that doesnt require use of the flash-it script?
Flash it only works on native Linux hosts (i.e under a VM or container it will attempt to unmount the drive thus releasing the controllers shared access with the guest and cause the script to fail) ruling out anyone who is looking to flash on Mac or Windows without a complete script rewrite.
Plenty of people want to give Sailfish a spin but are left out in the cold by this so how's about we just start generating self contained images rather than multi-step scripts that are prone to failure?
The script just creates more headaches than it addresses.
Thanks.
