Intel Edison

Problems with DFU flashing the Intel Edison

Have you tried to upload the ubilinux distro to your Edison?

Do you get the annoying error on your mac/linux machine “Unable to allocate file buffer for firmware” when you’re dfu-ing the image?

Or does the “Ten minute upload” become instantaneous, but the root image is your previous one?

Maybe it’s saying “Could not read file”?

That’s because your image exceeds the RAM in your machine, (or the limitations of your architecture if the image is more than 2Gb?).
