[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] jmasi50:
Commands

I used 2 different laptops to try to recover so far. Both laptops have Ubuntu 14.04 installed. As i said in my original post, I messed up trying to recover, so my circumstance is not a result of things not working. Initially, wheelie --blob blob.bin worked correctly.

The output below is from taken from a session I'm running now.

As you can see the NVidia device is still connected

Running wheelie again produces the following output

sudo ./wheelie --blob blob.bin

I guess if wheeie doesn't run correctly to set up NVFlash, you can't go any farther, am I coorect. I've seen some mentions of wheelie version 0.2 but haven't been able to find it. HAve you heard of it?

Thanks again for looking into this.
