#nytpu's notes

1. Install sunxi-tools, uboot-tools, and android-tools (for fastboot)
2. FEL='sudo sunxi-fel' FASTBOOT='sudo fastboot' SNIB=false ./chip-update-firmware.sh -p to flash a PocketCHIP image.

A table of flags that can be provided:

== Help ==
  -s  --  Server             [Debian + Headless]
  -g  --  GUI                [Debian + XFCE]
  -p  --  PocketCHIP         [CHIP on the go!]
  -b  --  Buildroot          [Tiny, but powerful]
  -f  --  Force clean        [re-download if applicable]
  -n  --  No limit           [enable greater power draw]
  -r  --  Reset              [reset device after flash] 
  -B  --  Branch             [eg. -B testing]
  -N  --  Build#             [eg. -N 150]
  -F  --  Format             [eg. -F Toshiba_4G_MLC]
  -L  --  Local              [eg. -L ../img/buildroot/]

Note that when updating this script to work with new versions of fastboot, I removed the -i flag that specified a specific device to target. Shouldn't be an issue unless you have your Android phone in fastboot mode plugged in at the same time as your CHIP, but be warned I guess.

#CHIP-tools

A collection of scripts for working with CHIP

#Requirements

1. sunxi-tools from your package manager or from the Sunxi repository
2. uboot-tools from your package manager
3. mtd-utils-mlc from our repository (https://github.com/nextthingco/chip-mtd-utils) [for creating images]

#Included Tools

This tool is used to download and flash the latest firmware release for CHIP. The tool also now only supports fastboot flashing.

#chip-create-nand-images

This tool is used to generate local firmware images for CHIP and CHIP Pro.
