supplied warpx image doesnt work

[Romsub]

Hi, 

I am trying to restore my warp board with the image provided here ( http://warpx.io/assets/binaries/warp_0x01/wtc-2016-headfull-image-warp.sdcard.gz ). 

I am able to mount the mmc and use dd to transfer the image (after gunzip) 

rams@brixpro:~/Downloads$ sudo dd if=wtc-2016-headfull-image-warp.sdcard of=/dev/sdb bs=10M

rams@brixpro:~/Downloads$ sync

In uboot prompt I restored the environment and 

=> env default -f -a 
## Resetting to default environment
=> saveenv
Saving Environment to MMC...
Writing to MMC(0)... done
=> boot
switch to partitions #0, OK

Booting from net ...

Bad Linux ARM zImage magic!
=> 

After the dd command, fdisk shows that there are no partitions on the mmc. 

Is there anything I am doing wrong with the dd command ? Could the image be corrupted maybe ? 

Cheers

I've double checked, and it looks like an incorrect image has been uploaded by
mistake.

Can you please follow the new method we posted to update / restore the WaRP?

Remember to keep both interposer and warp_0x01 connected to the PC.

Bests,

Hi Diego, 

Thanks for the confirmation and suggestion. 

I was able to use both the methods (swupdate and dd) successfully to restore the board. For dd, I had to use the image here (http://warpx.io/assets/binaries/warp_0x01/wtc-2016-headfull-image-sdk-warp-20160718170601.rootfs.sdcard.gz). 

The restored image from swupdate seems to be a leaner version ? It doesnt have opkg, wifi_connect (although just a bunch of commands :) ) ..etc. So I had to use the image linked above to restore. 

Cheers
