- Unpack the pieces from the fiasco firmware (the one distributed by Nokia for example) and then type:

- # 0xFFFF -R -p rootfs.jffs
+Advanced commands:
-<b>*) How can I flash a full FIASCO image?</b>
-
- It is not recommended to use, it needs more testing, and is more secure to unpack them first manually
- and flash the pieces manually with multiple '-p' flags. If you are brave try:
-
- # 0xFFFF -F FiascoFirmware.fiasco
