Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - ervybaby - 2016-03-24 Managed to get standalone OpenElec up and running and now want to install a dualboot OpenElec and ChromeOS. Bios was flashed and shows SeaBios rel-1.8.2-11 gdb2154520 - is that a dualboot or single boot option? I dont recall which I chose during the inital hack process I have acces to a shell terminal through ubuntu on usb and can run ChromeOS device Firmware Utility script using curl -L -O https://goo.gl/1hFfO3 sudo bash 1hFfO3 I can select Restore Stock Firmware from USB (stock-firmware-Zako-20150727.rom) but get an error in restoring the firmware I tried the download option for my HP Chromebox haswell modelbut get an read error in reading current firmware What else can I do?? I've tried inserting a recovery ChromeOS usb and the ChromeOS load screen indicates that the firmware isnt good and wont behave properly and cant get past email verification. Cntrl-D or Cntrl-alt-F2 doesnt do anything. tnx RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - cd2022 - 2016-03-24 http://kodi.wiki/view/Chromebox RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - ervybaby - 2016-03-24 Yes thanks - ive been following the resetting to stock instructions from that page.. still cant get the stock firmware back..

RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - Matt Devo - 2016-03-24 only time I've seen that error before is when running from a 32-bit system -- you need to use the x86_64 version of Ubuntu etc when running the script, as some of the binaries it downloads are 64-bit only. If you have a backup of your stock firmware, then you flashed the full firmware and restoring the stock backup is what you need to do, so just retry with a x86_64 live USB RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - ervybaby - 2016-03-24 keep getting kernel panic on load with x86_64 builds.. gonna try with a few more and report back RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - Matt Devo - 2016-03-24 (2016-03-24, 05:35)ervybaby Wrote: keep getting kernel panic on load with x86_64 builds.. gonna try with a few more and report back known issue with Ubuntu 15.10 (or any derivative thereof using the same bugged 4.2 kernel), documented in wiki, with a workaround RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - ervybaby - 2016-03-24 ok 14.04.3 amd(x86_64) worked RE: Restoring HP Chromebox stock Firmware - ervybaby - 2016-03-24 great-tnx very much |
