Thanks, was trying that yesterday and getting this:

ubuntukindle:~/Documents# ./fastboot
bash: ./fastboot: No such file or directory
hence I tried the chmod as I thought maybe permissions.

However this morning I looked it up and seems to be missing 32 bit libraries so I ran these:

Quote:
sudo apt-get install lib32ncurses5
sudo apt-get install lib32z1
now ./fastboot returns it's possible parameters

Since I'm logging most of the stuff I use here, this is how you see the USB serial adapter you have attached to your linux box:

Quote:
root@ubuntukindle:~/Documents# ll /sys/class/tty/ttyUSB*
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root 0 Jan 28 07:28 /sys/class/tty/ttyUSB0 -> ../../devices/pci0000:00/0000:00:06.0/usb1/1-2/1-2:1.0/ttyUSB0/tty/ttyUSB0/
root@ubuntukindle:~/Documents#

yes i know i probably shouldn't be root...
