@uzosky It looks crazy. The INSTALL script just copy the binary file to /usr/local/bin by superuser. Could you check you have install these dependencies that which is libusb-dev git parted?

~$ whereis libusb
libusb: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libusb.so /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libusb.a

~$ sudo apt-get install libusb-dev git

libusb-dev is already the newest version (2:0.1.12-31).
git is already the newest version (1:2.17.1-1ubuntu0.5).

@uzosky All looks fine . I don’t know why it became so.

@Gouwa, @numbqq
Perhaps you guys should look at the install script again. Or better still, why not make a detailed video tutorials of how to install and use the various tools for your products just like what Raspberry is doing- It will add more value to your products.

@Frank, @numbqq,
So I got the Burning Tools working on a fresh install of Ubuntu Server 16.04 on a different partition.
By the way, I couldn’t run the Fenix script on the same UB16.4. It’s asking for Artful or Bionic instead. I would have preferred to do all the work in one place. I’ll comment on that on a different Fenix thread or open a new one.

What shell do yo use? bash or zsh or plain sh?

Try execute bash first to change shell to bash and then try.

Hi, @ssehovic
I use bash. It’s the shell used by Ubuntu by default.

Ubuntu use dash by default as shell

echo $SHELL returns /bin/bash on my machine.

OK! YES ! its your user profile SHELL :wink:

but ubuntu | debian - use dash by default !

man sh | grep dash | head -1

dash — command interpreter (shell)

Yeah, I got the same result too:
~$ man sh | grep dash | head -1
dash — command interpreter (shell)

It installed successfully on a fresh install of UBuntu 18.04. I guess the former must have been broken somewhere. Thank you all for your efforts.

well-done ! and Happy new Year!

Thank you!, Happy new Year.

Hi guys what is the diff between amlfalshtool and burn tool

Hi, the second option is more reliable, via USB cable, the first option is an extreme case, the difference is that in the first case you first write the firmware to sd, and then from it to vim, UBT is stitched to vim directly from the PC, via usb cable.
Good luck to you!

Hey! do you use sd card write method? Sorry, I have not yet had any problems recording via a usb-c cable, in general, the method with a cable is considered the most reliable. Perhaps your problem was with the cable itself, this often happens and leads to errors. :man_shrugging:t3:
Have a nice day!:slightly_smiling_face:
