Getting your Libertas Boot2 Firmware Version
- Install lsusb (in fedora, that would be 'yum install usbutils')
- run 'lsusb -v'
- Look for your Marvell device, it should have these attributes:
idVendor 0x1286 idProduct 0x2001 bcdDevice 31.02
- The boot2 firmware version is the 'bcdDevice' field
Flashing from 3102 -> 3104
- Get root
- rmmod usb8xxx
- insmod /path/to/usb8xxx.ko MfgFW=usb8388mfg.bin MfgUpdateBoot2=Boot2_Mfg_3104.img
* Wait until the insmod command exits
- Reboot Now
If the insmod keeps running for a long time, say, more than 5 minutes, the process is hung and you will need to reboot and try again.
Flashing from 3104 -> 3102
- Get root
- rmmod usb8xxx
- insmod /path/to/usb8xxx.ko UpdateBoot2=Boot2_Mfg_3102.img
- Wait until the insmod command exits
- Reboot Now
Note that the command to back-flash is different than the command to forward-flash
